D: DO like idea of combo motor/generator.
At night, power lights.
Don't need assist during day? Power electronic device like cellphone or music player.
Need assist- route to motor/generator in drive chain.

I confess that a frame-based suspension makes sense if one embeds a hub of some variety in the frame.

Hmm, solidslot motors weigh in at 18lbs.
Not what I had in mind.

D: since the tetz system has weight from the gearing for it, lot to be said for low speed to start.

thinking for granny gear uphill 'n from start at light or on incline.
so want lotsa torque but very low spin.

not sure what app would have this.
