    Best place for battery for e bike conversion

    They seem a lot more expensive, 10ah kit from other seller is £362 vs £470 for your 13ah and £400 is my budget sorry. So what does the ah effect?

    No didn’t know about cassette vs freewheel I thought cassette was the cogs, thought they were all same. I’ve had a look online and by the looks of it if the inner hole is rounded it’s freewheel and if it’s splined then it’s cassette, that right. Can’t check bike till night but this is same...

    Best place for battery for e bike conversion

    Ok contacted seller he gave me link to following with battery: https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/302623660521 My only concern is it says thumb throttle available to 6kph - does this mean after 6 it’s only pedal assist - was hoping to get a kit that could be used just on electric only? Looks to be...

    D8veh you got any links to the eBay kits you said was good so I know what to look for? Typed in geared but nothing comes up. And by geared do you mean a wheel that has the 7/8 cogs that allow you to change gears on a normal bike?

    Conversion Kit Build

    thanks. right one last question before I purchase, will the kit take a bike with a rear disc brake? and also what is the max gears it will take, I have read up to 7 (so 3x7, 21 speed) cogs at the back so stay away from 8 and 9 cog bikes, is this right?

    Conversion Kit Build

    I need higher power as I'm quite busy so want the commute time to be as short as possible. If I get a bike that I can fit one of those batteries in the frame then am I good to go, just the kit and the battery nothing else needed? Only other question I have is do I need 15ah or 20ah what sort...
