That is quite a remarkable achievement. I have been wanting to do this for a few years now...life keeps getting in my way. I hope you plan on productizing the controller setup and/or publishing a detailed spec sheet to help those of us who hope to follow in your path! I have one suggestion for your next iteration - a belt drive. The belt drives (common on harleys and other cruisers) have much lower friction loss than traditional chains and are virtually maintenance-free. Good luck! Chris Kudos!
