guess I'm still confused about the pitch of the sprocket on the motor. Is
it ANSI spec chain or is bicycle chain not ANSI spec?
It is a 1/2" (12.7mm) pitch by 1/8" (3mm) thick
sprocket. It is designed to work with the chain on a standard 10 speed
type of bicycle. You can scavenge matching sprockets from a bicycle
or wait a couple of weeks. I am having matching sprockets machined and
will be offering them on the TyngTech site.
The original intent for this motor in China was for
electric powered cargo bicycles and tricycles. The motor is all ball
bearing construction with a very substantial gear reduction. It is a very
robust motor.
