Kits are not the same as bikes, which are supplied as complete items needing little or no intervention by the customer. When purchasing, you'll go through a thorough process, which can feel a bit over-complicated, but in doing so it means the actual conversion is a straightforward one. We tested out the Cytronex on a Brompton T-Line and found it delivered smooth and intuitive power. Plus, our hands-on time with it leads us to believe it's strong and durable enough to use for commuting. Month Warranty is for manufacturing defaults and does not over miss use or accidental damage - Please keep this in mind if you live far away from our Guildford workshop. These units are extremely strong and robust and will not let you down unless abused. We undertake warranties here in the UK.

For many kits, once the installation has been completed, it will be an arduous task to remove it again, so one of the questions you'll need to ask yourself is whether or not you want to retain the ability to use the bike as a 'normal' bike. If you expect to be flitting between the two (powered and non-powered) then a kit that can simply be folded out of the way – like the Rubbee X – might be perfect, but you might instead prefer to simply buy a second bike for the convenience. A visit to your local bike shop mechanic is a helpful step in the decision-making process. They can help you determine if your bike is a good candidate for electric technology. Along with the savings comes a project and that's the part you will want to consider. There are advantages to this, especially if you want to build something unique. It would make a great option for a cargo bike as an example. It can also save you money by trading your time for money paid. At the same time, it is a process that will require a fairly significant time investment. As long as you are on-board with the process, you'll end up with a high-quality electric bike. You can take pride in having built it and it's going to cost less than off the shelf. Tech Specs: BAFANG Front Hub Motor Electric Bike Conversion Kit BAFANG G06 250W rear motor wheel for fat bikes with thread for freewheels, available with or without 26" x 4" fat rim I did 20 miles on it today, admittedly quite a flat route, but I enjoyed a gentle boost when I felt a bit tired and the best bit was cycling home from the station (uphill all the way, right up through the centre of Lewes) which I usually dread, but today it felt really smooth and pretty

In some cases, faults are caused by the way the kit has been installed or misused (eg derestricted, despite our warnings) They write about the noise of the carriage motors, I do not agree. The sound of the gearbox is a bit noisier than the sound of tires, certainly not like a car.

To someone, my choice will seem strange or the prices are ambiguous, but I was guided by my preferences. The control panel screen is inconvenient (high), it can be inadvertently broken when turned over – therefore I’ve installed the bike horns. Battery performance in winter is a concern. Capacity drops rapidly! At -10C there is enough for 30 km of everything. If you bother for winter, you need to take LiFePO4, which works in the cold. But they are more expensive and heavier. Marking B at the end of the Bafang BBS02B motor means an improved controller with MOSFET transistors IRFB3077.For my new electric bike, I decided to buy serious wings. Usually, I cut out bits of plastic paper folders, but this is not the case – the dirt flies abundantly from under the wheels at high speed. The second question is to assess the state of your current bike. If you don't yet have one, then the cost of buying a bike, buying an electric bike conversion kit and then fitting it, is probably not going to be worth the time, effort, or money involved. However, if you have a bike that is in reasonable repair, then the value for money – and effort – will be greater. I have a 68-73 mm version for a carriage, there is also a version for fat bikes with a 100-120 mm carriage. it is minimally noticeable as a low-power gear motor-wheel, but at the same time much more powerful at the rugged terrain and in elevations than even a 1000-watt motor-wheel, due to the ability to use gears; The gear sensor interrupts the motor when you change gear, and gives a smoother gear change. How about the brakes?

Different products come with different battery sizes and various motor powers, but as an example, if your e-bike conversion kit has a 250-watt motor, and it has a 500Wh battery, it will last for two hours at full power. Electric Bike Conversions is registered with four of these schemes - Bike2Work, Cycle Scheme, Green Commute Initiative and CyclePlus. You'll see our name listed on each of these schemes such as Earth Cycles or Bike Bros. These are other names we trade under, but we are the same company. It is a pity that in this model there is no USB 5V 2A port for powering devices, it would be useful. The kit comes with replacement brake levers that will stop the motor when squeezed, so the system is limited to cable-actuated brakes (Image credit: Josh Ross) Verdict
