It needs to be a rear hub motor, and have 8 speed cassette with disc brake mounting. I would like for it to be a 36V unit, as that would allow me to run a nice 12S A123 pack.

I have looked around for kits, some are what I'm looking for, but are front only hubs, then some are rear, but no disc brake....etc. Just trying to find the right one!

He will spend $400 for a kit NOT including batteries.

Excellent deal. Great service. Highly recommended.

I'm (afaik) running the same motor and my controller is limited to 20a, altough I am running much more voltage.
