The relevance of motor kv with gear ratios taken into consideration?

bigger motors have more torque

While I have experienced this in person, this is a controversial topic which has its own thread even.

Do bigger motors deliver more torque at the same motor current?

Today It was suggested to me that people who upgrade just their motors to larger motors get more torque with the same motor amp settings. backed up with experiences of both bikes and esk8s doing this and feeling more torque. My understanding is that motor torque is proportional to motor amps x Kt. (torque/amp) and that Kt is inverse of Kv. (it’s 1/Kv) so a larger motor of the same kv maybe able to handle more motor amps, but with the same motor current it’s torque should be the same. A…

It’s fair to say not everyone agrees with that.
