    Well the cassette motors are in the sale ! (not that it really matters, you can install a cassette motor wheel on a bike that had a freewheel, just means you need to buy a 7 speed cassette)...

    I put the battery over the front wheel, as I thought it would be good to have some weight over the motor wheel https://www.pedelecs.co.uk/forum/threads/converting-folder-bike-to-cassette.47893/page-3 I used the Yosepower battery on one (I managed to put a crack in the battery cradle - see...
