Electroscooter

The Electroscooter should should a relatively simple project as it can rely largely on off-the-shelf hub motor systems commonly made in China and sold for the electrification of conventional bicycles. The basic design consists of a traditional adult-sized Amish kick-scooter whose front wheel has been equipped with an electric hub motor on its conventional bicycle wheel. Amish kick-scooters differ from commonly seen scooters in that they are designed specifically for adult and the varied road conditions of the countryside. They are commonly used in Amish communities as simple personal transportation. A more open variation is possible based on the use of a CNC plywood chassis design but the Amish designs are already open source by default.
