M128 500W rear motor

[handbaked]

Hi

Has anyone got any experience of these motors: http://www.elifebike.com/peng/iview.asp?KeyID=dtpic-2011-1G-KSU5.3DNYT

Seems like what i might be after. I currently have xiongda 350W 2 speed rear hub, Any idea how this would compare on my London commute?

Cheers

They are very high revving - what size wheel are you going to put it in?

I would prefer this one

I would be putting it in a 26" rim. Do you have one of those motors you have linked? The 48v 500w model sounds interesting. Any idea how that would compare to the xiongda?

I am studying my options for my next build and the Q128 in a 28" wheel is one of the two choices I have made. I will stick to 36 V in order to be able to use the same battery on two different bikes.

I currently have the 36 V Mxus which is rated at 250 W but I see 500 W on the LCD when in assistance level 5 (14 A x 36 V) which is enough to push me up my hill at 20 kph with very light pedalling in jeans and up to the 25 kph limit when I am wearing shorts and trying harder.

The Q128 is a cassette sprocket, light (3 Kg) and discreet enough to pass for a 250 W motor with the right stickers applied to it...

I too have been looking at the128c as an off road set up instead of my GSM kit., I am thinking of a 48v 328 run at 36v to give about 260rpm using the 09 18a sw controller set up.
