So you did not purchase this 26-inch wheel, but created it from a KS18?

That's correct, did not purchase. Chopped a perfectly good KS18 and created Frankenstein

How did you create the clearance necessary from the center spoke to the ceiling of the KS18 since it would require four more inches?

Had to remove the lights and speakers, cut up through the waterproofing lip all the way to the top chamber where the horizontal control board is housed. Raised the board to almost touch the top plate, rearranged capacitors on the board to fit under the cover.

 After cutting and grinding sufficient clearance for the tyre, then had to set about remaking the waterproof lip on either half case so they sealed the electrics from the wheel when both halves of the shell came together.

A serious carve up was necessary, hence Frankenstein

Again, nice job, it turned out real nice.

Sorry, video is very amateurish.

Note the dropped down casing from previous configuration, now 1200W. Much nicer to ride, height needs no handle attachment. Has turned out a sweet wheel to ride, even for an old guy with average skills.

Thinking of building a new casing to replace this broken red one but think I'll wait until some manufacturer offers a 2KW motor
