flecc,
Thank you again for the link to TGA.
I am attracted to the idea of Driving through gears but 2 off 12V 24Ah SLAs might be too much for me without power.
Many years ago (are they the oldest electric bike manufacturers?) I rode a 12V TGA bicycle kit where the motor was fastened to the offside front fork and drove a 'rear wheel' through a gearbox and chain. It was surprisingly effective and the offset weight of the motor went unnoticed. The 24V Electrobike then as now drove through the hub gears.
