Sometimes a kit is just the perfect way to go electric when you already have a nice bike that fits just right! Share a few more details on where you plan to ride
@Ray Mickshaw , roughly how far, how much weight do you think you'll need to carry or haul (say a trailer, kids, dog, etc.) and some info on your bike. This will help us be able to better guide you. There are a lot of decent choices from front hub to rear hub to mid drive with various set ups for the battery- each of these combos have a wide range of pricing, so its better to buy exactly what you need rather than too much or too little based just on $$. Court has several reviews on kits which is a good place to start. First question I always ask customers is about the bike they want to convert--the dropouts, where the axle drops in either front or rear need to be good, solid metal, not stamped to handle the motor torque (unless you go with a mid drive). Also, older bikes with less than 135+mm between the drop outs probably won't be able to accommodate a motor, which rules out many single speed bikes or at least makes for more challenges.
