  • from the looks of the video quality, it's emitting EM interference.

  • Lol.. that was my old Fujifilm camera going on the fritz, the thing held up great for many years and 1000's of pictures but i had to replace it recently.. no fault of the motor.

    the Sound is from the internal gears, this is a brushless geared hub motor !

  • You can expect a little resistance from the cogging effect if you have the power switched on but no throttle applied. With the power switched off at the battery you should not notice any marked resistance when you pedal. Check nothing is dragging (brakes, etc) if OK then check motor bearings and planetary gears. Most gears are nylon.

  • My hub motor is so hard to pedal,either with power on or off.

    It barely freewheels!. Is it just a shit brand i have? or should i change out the bearings maybe or something?

    Anyone know how to make it freewhell better?

    Thanks

  • yeah same here.

    Mine does not freewheel very good.

    It is hard to spin, with powere on or off.

    Meaning as in there is a fair bit of resistance when I try and pedal the bike with no power.

    Any ideas?

  • is that good or bad?

  • I have the same wheel, from Renaissance Bicycle Company (Justin Elmore-Lemoir's firm).

    It freewheels very well. The bike pedals easily.

    The geared-type hub motor offers great self-starting torque and no "magnetic cogging" inherent to the non-geared hub motors, which can be a pain to manually pedal,

    and have not such great low-end torque unless they be highly powered. Planetary, internal geared motors offer advantages. Also, their freewheeling is silent: no "click click click" of ratchets/pawls.

  • Wouldnt it be great as you passed all the violent motorists that their engines cut out!!!

    "Bloody cyclists....hey..what the.."

  • why gears? isn't there a silent motor you can get that doesn't use gears? maybe use a single hub on both axles? Or if you wanted to go wider like on a scooter, you could use dual modified hubs on both axles. I'm all anti-noise, so the quieter the better!
