Hi
I want to convert my Scott aspect 29er so that I can use it for my commute.
In the normal way for new joiners I will be asking questions about things that have already been discussed at length.
Here are a few to start:
Which suppliers use the cycle to work scheme?
I want to do a mid drive conversion with bottle style battery - what’s the best combo?
How easy is it to do a goid diy job?
How much do companies charge for converting?
What are all the things I need to know before I start?

I want to do a mid drive conversion with bottle style battery - what’s the best combo?
I would say 48V TSDZ2 with 48V 12AH battery. It gives you about 45-50 mile range on a full charge. It's a sleek looking kit with minimalist wiring.

How easy is it to do a goid diy job?
fairly straightforward. Points to watch out for this kit: underside cableguide needs removing and replaced with new outercable and you may need to make your own anti rotation bracket on some bikes (I had to on a B'Twin Rockrider).
How much do companies charge for converting?
about £100
