i had an etek and a pmg-132 in the same bike [different times] every thing was
identical [except for the gearing: 10/52 for etek, 12/52 for pmg]. at 48 volts
the etek out performed the pmg [the etek had better acceleration and a higher
top speed], but i think the bearings are better in the pmg

I might be interested in purchasing the broken Etek at a discount and then
getting it repaired. Send me a note with your expectations and any information
about the damage. I assume it is the result of overheating due to more than 300
amps for too long.
Can you provide us a comparison of the Lemco and the Etek (price, specs (peak
hp and torque), motor weight, max rpms, etc.) Could someone else provide some
real world input on the PMG specs to add to the mix? I'd just like to see how
these 3 motors stack up against each other.
I understand that the PMG for example has a maximum rpms value (~4000) much
less that the Etek (5,184 rpms theoretical at 72 volts). Anyone that has
physically measured either motors rpms please weigh in.
