An ET-Cycle T1000 frame with a Cycle Analyst v3 connected to a BaseRunner and a G60 Bafang. This is a great ride through mountain trails, hills, roads and excellent with studded snow tires. The wide mirrors provide a nice feel and there are two 21Ah 48V batteries running in parallel. One battery is located in the rear basket. I like the waterproof toolbox on the front rack.
History
On my 3rd motor and approaching 30000km. Now using a Bafang G60 fatbike motor with Baserunner and a Cycle Analyst which is great. This is my main vehicle as I have no car and have recently completed a move that I did with this bike (approx 2500km of moving with a Wike bike wagon).
Future upgrade would be to add a front hub motor for a dual-motor experience to really breeze up the hills during trail riding.
Interesting experiences include seeing a great horned owl in the middle of the night. I almost hit a bear who ran across the gravel road I was travelling on. I once thought I was following a cat, but I did a very quick U-turn after realizing it was a skunk. The wild turkeys are fun to watch. And on two occasions, I was travelling at about 35km/h along the path with deer running beside me. This led to an illusion that the deer and I were not moving, but the rest of the world was.
