that's amazing. could that possibly be the future of muni? maybe we'll figure out a way to make the motor stronger and faster. until then I'll just stick to pedaling.

According to the eunicycle web site, Trevor has already used one very impressive motor. It boasts 3 horsepower in 3.8 pounds of motor. Compare this to an athlete who can exert 1/2 HP average and 2.5 HP maximum. I'm sure the hardware could be coaxed to go much faster, though I have a vauge recollection that there may be a software speed limit. It weighs 30 pounds, which has to have an effect on agility. Hopping will be a lot harder. Switching to lithium polymer batteries could lighten it up a little, but lipos have a habit of exploding when abused. Either way, the design would have to be made more rugged to withstand falling onto rocks. So... Future of Muni? Maybe not. But I still want one. I've been wondering how well a hub motor would work.
