  • Power ?

    Torque?

    Voltage?

  • I saw this bike, it was indeed a Robobike built machine, at the race track in Phoenix ten years ago. What has become of it?

  • @beachcomber2008 Hmmm you're right.

  • @stiffyschlong That's fighting talk :) That disc is ALL unsprung weight, and magnetic drives usually use iron to concentrate the field

    So, how much does your drive weigh, and what torque does it have? What power can it deliver?

  • @stiffyschlong Toothed belts are more efficient than small gearboxes

    Subjecting motors and gearboxes to bump accelerations will test all the bearings involved

    Keep it slack and well-ventilated

  • @beachcomber2008 Reduction of efficiency. Unsprung weight should be negligible and IMO all these negative concerns about it is unfounded i.e. bullshit.

  • @jshewmaker3 Big Oil bought the thing and paid off the inventor. True story.

  • i only clicked cause it looked like capt americas shield in the thumbnail

  • I'll take mine with wheelnut locks, and beef those up a bit, I could sheer those off with an axe. Hate to lose my motor when my back wheel gets ripped off!

  • This idea is perfect for picking up all little metall particles on the roads... As in, you better make sure your driven wheel gets really good sealed

  • need to make this an upgrade to for motorcycles.

  • @wolfekeeper It's probably cheaper (and lighter) to use a small diameter brushless motor and gear it up

    I can't see what's wrong with a toothed belt drive - at least for rear wheels

    That way the motor doesn't become unsprung weight either
