Running on an electrical motor has the big advantage that you really need only one gear. The motor can bring full torque from zero speed. But as we are working with a syncro, we want some more! We will keep gears 1 and 2 calling them L and H. L for going steeply uphill and H for running on regular roads with a top speed of 135km/h!

Shipping from China is going to take a while. We are expecting delivery around end of february, jay!
