Thanks for the reply Large Filipino. Wondering tho why so much noise when the regular bike chain/sproket makes none. Does the size of the motor/sproket/chain make it noisy? The motor noise dont seem bad compared to the chain/sproket noise when the motor is off an I am just peddaling. Also there is so much resistance when just peddeling. Despite all my whining , I still like driving the motor. Just want it to be perfect. I still like to pedal on straight away, but love the motor when tiring out. Thanks , fledge3
