The Townnie 7D is very stylish, american beach style bike. Too big for you.

I use 650B tyres also because of the targetted customers. 700C tyres would look slimmer.

the battery is semi-inframe. Bafang set off this trend 3-4 years ago and it does become fashionable. The main advantage of locating it below the downtube is rainwater can't get to it and popping it out is slightly easier than top loaded ones like I have on the Rambla and Rambletta.

it can but a second battery could go in a bag under the saddle.

about the frame: I know I wanted a frame for our traditionally built customers but should I change for something less 'tank' like?

Do you like the front mudguard fix?

yes. The battery uses a popular format from Bafang.

Actually it is harder this year. Wages go up, energy bills go up, people spend less and search out more for sales and special offers demand is stymied by fire stories in the media. The value of the Pound is lowest since 1985. The only thing that's better is container cost is quite low...

when covid arrived, I stopped advertising on google. Bikes simply sold fast. I have restarted advertising 3 weeks ago.

it's also bolted to the rear mudguard.

I Fair criticism, I have revised our BBS01B and BBS01ET prices. The new price for BBS01B + 36V 20AH DP downtube battery is £699. https://wooshbikes.co.uk/cart/#/product/uid-272-bbs01-20ah/bbs01b-cd-kit-with-20ah-36v-dp-battery

everything we talked about is new, not secondhand. the OP wanted to buy a new step through and put a conversion on it. The step through donor bike costs £349 at present, if he/she puts a TSDZ2B + a 48V 10AH bag battery for example for around £500, the total would come in under £900. He/she can...

I posted the picture of the battery. It is removeable. The frame has the normal lock and keys. I don't know yet the load rating of this type of racks. I think it's no worse than the usual racks with rods attached to the seat stays. The seat stay rods are not load bearing anyway.

there is no way that bike is as good mechanically and electrically as a new bike + conversion kit for a similar budget (£800-£900). My mechanics used to say that low cost e-bikes are made of cheese. That's something I worked on for years to avoid.

Battery has Bafang form factor so you can find replacements on the net. They gave me a 48V 15AH on the sample, I paid only for a 48V 10AH.

agreed, I am allowed to advertise being a trade member. It's important to collect opinions so if any change is found desirable, I can still make it before commiting to production run.

most of my customers are 'traditionally built' anyway. So I have chosen one of the strongest frames, look at the thickness of the toptube. It should cope with 25st riders. One good thing about going with a crank motor is that the stress on the rear spokes are much reduced compared to a rear hub...

I thought you are against all front hubs

It's an excellent donor bike, suitable for rear hub, front hub and bottom bracket kits. You still need to factor in the cost of mudguards.
