Flywheel newsletter takes a very specific, but fascinating, look at the used e-bike market as a way to track trends, notes that cargo bikes represent a small percentage of used e-bikes sold last year. He predicts this will change. Why? Because they are ridden the most, by far, of any e-bike category.

The motorcycling industry is gearing up for the future  Syd Mead  promised decades ago: futuristic EV motorcycles and those made using sustainable practices and fuels. https://www.rideapart.com/news/563835/emerging-motorcycle-powertrain-tech/

Dual Hub Motors From Grin Tech ( ebikes.ca ) Dual front/rear hub motors  on a bike is an excellent way to achieve higher power levels than a single hub motor can produce, and is especially useful in cargo bike or load hauling applications. When you run two brushless motor systems on the bike, each motor requires it's own motor controller (there is no way around this) but the throttle signal would typically be split to run both motors equally. For controllers running with our new WP8 Cycle Analyst plug, we have a very convenient  dual controller splitter cable .  For older controllers with the 6-pin CA plug, or generic controllers with no CA plug, you can run two motors with a V3 CA3-DPS device using the  dual motor CA shunt , while for those without a CA we have a simpler  dual controller throttle splitter cable  for the same purpose. Most often you would use matching motors for the front and rear, ex dual eZee motors, dual Crystalyte, dual 9C, and the powe...
