Added a Grin rear hub motor to my 700c Bacchetta recumbent. I developed a severe heart valve problem and decided to modify my recumbent with e-assist. Quality of the wheel build with the Grin motor is excellent. I have done some long hilly rides to get a feeling on range and other parameters. I am impressed with how smooth the assist is with the setup using torque matching to mirror my effort. I have been averaging around 5-7 watt hours per mile which gives me a range of over 100 miles on the 52v20ah battery.
