    Eclipse Bikes Bafang BBS02 48v 750w mysteriously disappears

    24V/36V/48V top quality electric bike battery

    I do like your 'can do' attitude. the bag battery is not ideal, not lockable and too easy to steal. I am looking for someone who can help me develop a new battery case and rack (ODM) similar to the Giant system but with two locking plates on the sides and a controller box in middle.

    Choice of two - (or more!)

    range won't be a problem with either but your weight may be a problem because neither has any suspension. With e-bikes, you muscles don't work as hard or absorb as much shock as with normal bikes, plus you'll ride much faster, your back, wrists and shoulders take a lot more pounding than before...

    Choice of two - (or more!)

    I like the Upstart better but there is little to choose between the two. If you out your requirements, distance, your weight, your city then others may suggest some other bikes to consider.

    why these two models? what are your criteria? The Momentum has torque sensor, that should make it more attractive to cyclists.
