Im sure theres some sort of adaptor available that raise or lower the brake mounts so you can use larger or smaller wheels on a standard fork.
Hardly definitive, but i suppose in all fairness it depends on how fat a bloater you are and how fast you ride
It's not just about the energy that needs dissipating. You need modulation and control too, which are more important for a light rider.
You can always run it at 48v, which will increase its speed and torque by 30%, so next time I come out of the pub to chase you up the hill, you might be able to give me a run for my money.

That's a really good deal. Thanks for pointing it out. I looked at them before but couldn't find anything interesting and legal; however, I just found and ordered a MXUS XF08C rear cassette motor for only £69 inc shipping! It's a shame they can't do that motor in the above kit.You can get a built 26" front hub wheel kit (mxus xf07) with KT controller , display and pas sensor for £143 free shipping from Germany

I've seen that listing before. It didn't and still doesn't state which controller is supplied, then I lost interest again. Does the 250W front motor kit have a 7A controller? That's 252W with my 36V battery. I'd have to throw the single figure rated controller away and buy a 20A controller, possibly with another LCD to ensure compatibility? Also, I have cable brakes:You can get a built 26" front hub wheel kit (mxus xf07) with KT controller , display and pas sensor for £143 free shipping from Germany

7a rated 15a max, yeah that's standard, rated always seems to half maximum. 15a *36v will be fine for your svelte figure. I think 20a might be too much, Woosh supply there xf08c kits with 17a max controllers
That 7a rated is 15a max is good to know, thanks. I I look svelte at the mo, but the hills around me won't be without billions of years of additional weathering, unless tectonic plates collide in my local area again. Where I live was once sea bed. Trilobites are everywhere. Hence the 20A controller requirement.
I can get up most of the hills near me with the Woosh XF08c kit and 17amp controller at a not so svelte 105kg. I do have to add some pedalling power though
I think 20a might be too much with quite a few of the 250w rated hub motors, I've seen recommendations here for maximum 36v•18 amps to not strip nylon gears
Cheers, good to know.
I'm rather spoilt by the ease of zooming about effortlessly on my BBS01B, and you're losing me with this having to add pedalling power stuff. TBK do a 22A controller, seems like it has the right connectors for a MXUS PSWPower front motor, but I'd have to choose cable length, PAS. I'll look into it all, if I suddenly feel a sense of overriding enthusiasm for a harder to pedal hub conversion. Overriding enough to assemble the Dahon Espresso, which will take some overriding.
Yes I've read that, about the AKMs?
36v at 20A gives the same hill-climbing as 48v 15A. KT controllers are normally dual voltage. The picture you showed indicates 36v/48v dual voltage version.
Every one I tried could run with 22 amps at 36v. It's only when you go up to 48v that you need to be more careful. That XF08C I ordered is going to be run with 22A at 48v.
