I decided to upgrade to sealed motors, and why not jump to 220KV in the process. 37, maybe 38 MPH with Bergmeisters will soon be in reach…

That’s a good jump, I just bought the haggy kit and put 20t motor pulley on and that worked like a charm

On Bergmeisters? What top speed did you hit on that setup?

I got it to 38 on Saturday before I was thrown off, I think It has a good 39 maybe 40 in it

Which pulley did you use? I had to pry off the inner flange of my dickyho ones since they were hitting the motor mounting screws.

Okay yes that’s the one catch you have to use these low profile screws from McMaster, I can get you the link if you want. Then the dickyho ones work great. I have an extra set of the d shape ones if anyone wants em too

20-tooth is tempting, but less torque and 49 MPH top speed is beyond anything that I need or should have.

49mph? And it has enough torque to climb my 180lb ass up SF hills

A link to those screws would be nice 
I’ll take you up on the d shape ones if shipping to Toronto isn’t too terrible. Could use a little more top end, my 190kv are actually 172 instead.

This is going to be a a template when I build the Peregrine’s successor
sweet build.

Probably more like 45… but I meant the top speed if I used 20T on a 220KV motor.
Which might not happen, because the motors are backordered and aren’t in production until the end of the month…

220 KV would exceed the 60k soft-erpm limit. But I assume you’ve considered this already. Bioboards also has them on sale right now. Looks like there is only 1 left in stock though.
Yes… I was about to order from them until I saw the quantity.

Let me know what KV it turns out to be, like i mentioned earlier mine were 18kv lower… wonder if anyone else can chime in on their advertised vs realistic kvs

Bummer… backordered until November 10 or so. I canceled for now but may order if I don’t pick something up sooner.
Update: I decided to go with 200KV motors as they are in stock. I sent an email to confirm this on Friday… now the motors are on my bench!
From Shanghai to Ohio in 3 days… over a weekend!? Thanks @Agnes_Maytech!

200’s should treat you mighty fine!
I’ve had some issues overheating my FSESC on the 220s but that’s with gearing for 43mph and mad hill climbs

What is the gearing ratio on the drive currently? Trying to decide what motors i want for mine

I have the stock Haggy pulleys (60:15) so 4:1. Top speed with 190kv was about 33 MPH.
