FlyKly Smart Wheel Review
The FlyKly Smart Wheel is an ebike conversion kit consisting of a motor, battery, control system and bicycle wheel designed to be simple to use, light weight and efficient.

Falco Hx 750 Review
The Hx 750 is my favorite kit from Falco. It’s strong, smooth and relatively quiet. It’s also heavier and more expensive than the standard Hx 500. The best parts of this kit are its ability to offer regeneration and charge the battery pack when coasting down hills as well as its open source nature (you […]

The Riide electric bike came to life on Kickstarter in February 2014 reaching more than 100% of its funding goal.

ProdecoTech Outlaw SS Review
The controversial ProdecoTech Outlaw SS is appropriately named… It’s an outlaw in the world of ebikes because it can only legally be operated in off-road or private spaces in most states. They do sell two street legal version of the bike in the Outlaw EX and SE (both with 750 watt motors and top speeds […]
E-BikeKit E-Trike Kit Review
E-BikeKit has been offering electric bike conversion kits since 2008 and has more options than almost any other brand I know. Their support is good, the website works well and the warranty is solid (unless you get the Sealed Lead-Acid battery which isn’t covered). This isn’t the fanciest kit around, they’re striving for best value, […]
