No. You are still wrong my friend. In my example with the 2 riders. The torque in each bike is IDENTICAL.Yes you are correct in your senario the torque at the rear wheel would be the same but your missing my point and proving my point at the same time in essence you saying exactly what I'm telling you. All I'm saying is felt force or torque i guess on the cassette is measured by the rsstance required to stop the force and the fat guy requires more for the same result thus putting more tension on the cassette . doesnt matter who accelerates faster in your scenario yes both riders are putting equal force on there chains but the lighter guy is faster his doesn't matter the fat guy is still trying to achieve the same result and will need more force to get there ..
THE MOTOR IS THE SAME.
THE MOTOR PRODUCES THE SAME TORQUE AT FULL THROTTLE / PEDDLE ASSIST.
THE TORQUE IN THE CHAIN RING IS THE SAME.
THE TENSION IN THE CHAIN IS THE SAME.
THE TORQUE INTO THE CASSETTE IS ALSO, YOU GUESSED IT. THE FUCKING SAME.
