Looks pretty good. Pity about the drive chain though. I like the idea of mounting the motor in the hub.

The range/ speed would cover 95% of my needs, and I reckon with a little bit of forethought and an extra couple of hundred dollars it could come close to being a "Totally solar" machine.

Another petrol price spike on its way, these things look better every day.

I am getting seriously tempted ...
