Definitely not. There’s a few aftermarket conversions that use hub motors, but the ones I’ve seen were on vehicles like Land Rovers with live axles.

And now Trump gets to be the one who saved TikTok, despite starting the process.

No, they didn’t. I had plenty in my bio about hobbies, sports etc, very few mentioned it.

The most important job of a suspension system is to keep the wheels in steady contact with the ground, comfort is a secondary concern. With this in mind, manufacturers go to great lengths to reduce unsprung mass, even as far as having inboard brakes on race cars.

And you want to put the motor out on the wheel?

Yes, it’s a stupid idea, and there’s a reason why almost nobody does this. Mostly because of the handling, the more unsprung mass you have, the harder it is to keep the wheels on the ground.

Isn’t that exactly the same idea though? The motor is now on the chassis, but the reduction gear is still a lot of weight.

Race cars have gone as far as having inboard brakes to reduce unsprung mass, moving the gearing out to the wheel is silly.

Daydreaming about Vienna, and those careless days by the Danube, painting and savouring life.

I always wondered if they realised we actually can’t send the first message.

There’s a big problem with the “women message first” gimmick, and it’s that they just don’t.

If they don’t simply let the match expire, you either get a shitty Gif, or something along the lines of “hey.”

Maybe one in ten will actually send a message that genuinely starts a conversation.
