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.

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 assembly may include an axle, a hub shell rotatably mounted on the axle by a first bearing, a free hub rotatably mounted on the axle by a second bearing, and a ratchet mechanism releasably coupling the free hub to the hub shell to transmit torque from the free hub to the hub. The ratchet mechanism may include a first ratchet ring having an inner surface joined to the hub shell for rotation with the hub shell and a second ratchet ring having an inner surface joined to the free hub for rotation with the free hub. The first ratchet ring and the second ratchet ring encircle and radially overlap the first bearing and the second bearing, respectively. At least one spring resiliently biases the first ratchet face and the second ratchet face into engagement to transmit torque from the free hub to the hub shell.
