Re: CIM FR801-001 Finding Gear help?

The CIM will need to be spun up pretty fast to make electricity. See about putting a roller wheel on the motor shaft, and having that press against the bike wheel. Trying to turn it with pedals by putting a sprocket on it will be way too slow!

you want it to be running about 4000 rpm
