I'm a long time Mountain biker but health issues have really ate into my peddling ability (not finished me off but I can't go up very well these days)
I've an old Marin Quake AL7 old and heavy now but probably the nicest handling long-ish travel frame I've had and Ive had lots.
I've been keeping it back for when the time was right and have just ordered a Cyc XP1 motor setup for it, will probably take a few weeks to arrive but supposed to be quite pokey...should be fun

`secondary gear` .. is that the derailleur external gears .. or do you mean inside the motor cover ??

Yes the latter Gary - there is primary reduction gear inside the left bit using plastic gears and a special grease, and a secondary reduction gear in the RH side which uses metal gears and yer standard black moly grease

The older Bosch drive on my other MTB has roughly the same design, but both sides are plastic gears. I would assume that all electric drives use a similar grease system, i.e. they don't have a sealed oil bath and will need a bit of grease now and then. Plastic gears don't need so much attention though.
