I'm in the market for a pedelec kit to backfit to a bike. I want this to be a true pedelec, where the degree of assistance from the motor is determined by the intensity of the rider's pedalling, with no throttle on the handlebar.
What are my options? The ones I know of are:
* Bionx (rear hub drive, looks good, expensive)
* Sunstar (crank drive, but low battery capacity?)
* Panasonic (crank drive, hard to fit to most bikes?)
I'm particularly interested in finding one that is a front-hub drive. The Gazelle Innergy bikes are like this, but are not available in a kit to backfit other bikes.
