Have a newish rear wheel from a Powacycle, which was a complete nightmare. I finally found time to stick this on the bench today and try it on my spare controller. It checks out electrically, runs free forwards even runs a good turn or so backwards. Have 1 amp fuses in the phase wires of my controller as I throttled up the fuses blew. it now looks like the previously blown controller on the bike could of been down to this hub. Sooo any one any ideas why a hub would load up so much? when it feels so free?
