Anyone have a link to Pony Excess documentary? Because, yeah, that was pretty hilariously blatant cheating.

It amazes me how tiny electric motors can get crammed into the frames of bikes and be strong enough to actually help those riders :psyduck:

isn't it still an ongoing thing?

I have a brushless electric motor that is slightly larger than a D size battery. With the right battery, it is capable of propelling a 12 lb. r/c monster truck to over 60 mph while still having enough power to cause it to flip over from the initial torque. As in, I have to mess with the acceleration curve of the motor to stop that from happening.
