A bicycle gearing system includes input and output shafts, two planetary gear systems, and a clutch mechanism. The clutch mechanism includes three clutch presser plates for frictional engagement with two clutch disks and a clutch base. A motor rotates a camshaft formed with cams selectively engageable with cam followers for driving the clutch presser plates to rotate. Steels balls are provided within cavities formed between the clutch presser plates and a clutch housing to convert rotation of clutch presser plates to linear force for frictional engagement with the two clutch disks and the clutch base. Different angles of rotation of the camshaft produce different clutch and gear combinations and different gear ratios.

A two-wheeled vehicle is provided. The two-wheeled vehicle includes a chassis having a height, a length and a width, a first wheel rotatably connected to the chassis, the first wheel having a perimeter, a diameter and a geometric center, and the diameter of the first wheel being at least 75% of the height of the chassis, a motor for providing a drive energy to the first wheel, an axle rotated by the motor, a drive gear connected with the axle such that the drive gear rotates with a rotation of the axle, and a plurality of teeth disposed about the first wheel and mechanically engaged with the drive gear at a location closer to the perimeter of the first wheel than to the geometric center of the first wheel.

Various powered mobility systems, such as scooters and wheeled boards, are disclosed. The powered mobility system can be a drive assembly, which can include a motor, transmission assembly, driving wheel, and power supply. The drive assembly can be detachable from the rest of the personal mobility vehicle.

A bicycle drive unit includes a housing, an output unit, a first motor and a second motor. The housing rotatably support a crankshaft. The output unit is provided in the housing and to which rotation of the crankshaft is transmitted. The first motor is provided in the housing that can assist a manual drive force without changing the ratio of the rotational speed of the output unit relative to the rotational speed of the crankshaft. The second motor is provided in the housing to assist the manual drive force without changing the ratio of the rotational speed of the output unit relative to the rotational speed of the crankshaft.

Various hub motor arrangements, systems, and methods are disclosed. The hub motor arrangement may include a transmission assembly to provide increased torque. The transmission assembly may include a motor gear, a planetary gear, an idler gear, and a ring gear. The idler gear may be positioned farther away from an axis of rotation of the hub motor arrangement compared to the planetary gear. The motor gear may drive the planetary gear, the planetary gear may drive the idler gear, and idler gear may drive the ring gear. The rotation of the ring gear may rotate a housing of the hub motor arrangement to propel a vehicle incorporating the hub motor arrangement.
