Default RE: Troubling observations about brushless . . .


ORIGINAL: mbeatle

My brushless pede is very keen to flip. Due to cogging problems, I did not get a chance to really evaluate the suspension, but the speed is just absurd, even geared 16/86!

I dont get suprised too often but flipping due to cogging really dose not make since. Cogging will not apply power in one direction to flip a truck. If you are getting a burst for that long there is something not right. Also you mentioned torque. With electric motors you get about 96% of full torque from 3 rpm, depending on the efficiency of the motor this can be more or a little less. So for all real talks basically you get the same torque from 1 rpm up to wattage max of the weak link in the system.
