I have tryed a lot of motors??

@lucabrasiguy :
Can't--it hasn't existed for over a year. I moved up to different radiator fan motors running a friction drive, (DayGlo Avenger) which worked fine until one shaft broke (the batteries were failing anyway), and then I built a semi-recumbent bike to replace that, which works fairly well except for occasional chain problems, plus a regular hubmotor front wheel on DGA now. See the blog for details.

@lykenth08 No, the reflector is not doing that; the slime in the tube does that, along with the cheap unbalanced recycled tires and cheap unbalanced patched tubes. :)

You should REALLY have someone true that wheel. All that force is gonna screw the bike up if it's not taken care of.

@Crouton351 Unfortunately, the wheel *was* trued, though not perfectly. The problem is in the materials; see reply above to lykenth08
