    You can install a Schlumpf Mountain Drive with a Rohloff, BUT....that jeopardizes your Rohloff warrenty. I lowered my gear range by installing the smallest sprocket up front. Today I took my Fat Trike to a pedestrian square and in 3rd gear I could keep up with the peds.

      @@darkskys163 Allright, well, I give you the advise to contact Rohloff, if you want to install the Schlumpf. Just to be on the safe side. The Schlumpf will work fine. I had a Schlumpf installed in my velomobile, to get going after an emergy stop and going uphill (up a bridge).

      @@darkskys163 If you want to change the front sprocket for a smaller front sprocket. Check out your Rohloff manual, because if the gears become too small, the forces applied on the Rohloff huff may get too high. Damaging the hub, so no more warrenty. In the manual there is a chart telling what front and back sprocket combinations are possible and which are not.

    Put a electric assist on it and you will go everywhere. Love my bafang on mine. Go right up the big hills

      @@goriverman did you have a problem with the wrench not completely fitting around the mid driver lock nut? Or after tightening the nut as much as you can, but the mid drive motor is still loose that it moves?

      @@darkskys163 yes, I just took a bass bar with a hammer I had and tightened it that way. Did you get the motor mount too. Works great. What did you get for a battery. I have a 15 amp hour with Samsung batteries. Might instal another one as a backup. Haven’t run even close to running out of battery. Did you get a 1000 watt motori

    I take an air pump and air pressure gauge with me on my Fat, so in terrain I can lower the tire pressure and on the air inflate back to 1.5 bar/ 21 psi.
