Some interesting info on hub motor placement

[Fordulike]

Thought i'd show this post from the endless-sphere website for anyone interested in deciding whether to use a front or rear hub.
Looks like it's ongoing, so keep checking the endless-sphere thread for updates

A lot of good stuff there, but you have to remember that most of the guys on Endless Sphere are running a lot more power than us, so all that talk about steel forks, torque arms and riders going over the handlebars doesn't normally apply.
