This appears to be the most efficient combo, but I have no idea how to achieve it, particularly with one eye on the wallet - suggestions please
I am very taken by the internal geared hubs, so welcome suggestions to some of best alternatives
Pretty sold on the 750 or new 1000 bafang mid-drive
Seem to make sense to have belt or shaft drive - welcome input as to how best these can be married to Bafang and where best to source a bike with most of the work done / specialists who can perform the more difficult remaining conversion elements
strikes me that Dynamic shaft drive should buy in Bafang type motors and incorporate into their drives, presumably the freewheel being in the rear hub can only help - this would be a super neat solution - doing away with all exposed gears front and back also oily chain and vulnerable deraileur - since the motor could be directly geared into shaft, losing the belt would also make it more compact ...win, win, win?
