I would like to do a project like RQ Riley's urbatrike. The general idea is an advance motor belt drive. I would like to use li batteries but I dont understand battery terminology.
Now I know there are a lot of factors involved, 40 mph is average speed and I have a 50 mi round trip to work. My big question is how big of a battery pack am I seting myself up for. http://www.rqriley.com/u-trike.htm thanks elect3

Hello everyone and thanks for letting me join the forum. I am considering building RQ Rileys Urbatrike. I was wondering if anyone in the group could tell me of any other websites or electric trike builds besides Austin Higgs or Reikimans. They are both very nice jobs., but I am just looking for all the information and ideas I can find before I start. Any help would be greatly appreciated

Thanks, Jeff
