gearing is way too high for the pede and a 17 turn. Something more like 15 to 16 t pinion size would be more like it.
I bought the motor from my LHS and the guy their said he has a 21t pinion and a 23t pinion but he recommends the 23t so I dont get to hot on the motor...lol now I hear the opposite. Im lost...I know little of gearing...I have the stock spur gear but it is worn a bit as the car is old so I am gonna replace it - what should I do? Replace the spur alone and keep the 23t pinion or replace both or what? I am definately upgrading to something like a 3000 or 4000mah nimh battery and I dont want to burn up the motor...any suggestions?
