    1. Great channel.I have a gen 2 with pillar battery. Is there any chance you could go through the pros and cons of adding the rack Mount battery to increase the range? (and maybe how to do this work) 🙂 thanks!

    2. Hi, can I put rear hub motor in my bike wich already have Bosch mid drive system.
      I would like to have more torque, soo i would put rear hub motor and additional battery. Tnx for answer

    3. Hi! I want to build my own e-bike but i dont know that if the motor its 48v with 1500w and the battery its 48v but 2000w its going to work together? Or the battery its gonna burn the motor? Please help me with that THANK YOU!…

    4. So I am looking at a e bike to go it work 3 miles in the USA some small short hills rolling type. 50ft elevation change
      Ideally I would love to get a 1000 watt 60v motor

    5. Hi, this may sound ridiculous but, I have a 1950 ‘s bike very sturdy no gears. However Im 67 yrs. With total knee replacement and 200 pounds. I want to start riding my bike but it’s very hard to pedal. I thought maybe adding a motor to assist with peddling. Anyone anyone have recommendations. Thank you for your help. 🙂

    6. I added 750w bafang mid-drive motor to my e-bike with a 48v battery and it rides like a dream I've tried a little off road on my other ebike but it has fat tyres but have a mountain bike is so much better 😀

    7. Dear Electric Mountain Bike Network
      I want to convert my city bike into an ebike and I’ve looked at a lot of front hub motor wheels, but then I realized that my bike has “roller brakes” and I’m not sure what to do now. Do I have to by a special hub motor wheel if I still want to use my front break or what would you recommend?
      Kind regards Anders

    8. I would like a small motor just to make toting around a toddler trailer with twins easier and faster. What can I find for my cruiser that I can kind of just plug and go? Is there a weight limit?

    9. For Front hub it is the frames like the NEXT Power Climber that works well with front hub motor due to design of having center weight right behind the handle bars. Keeps wheels from peeling with better traction..

    10. Hmm this made me instantly think of my old Gt sanction sitting in the garage….mid drive and maybe mount battery on top tube……🧐

    11. Hi loved your video. Can I ask this lower priced, easy fit rear hub will be good enough for cycling up hills on the road. I have similar bike as shown. Many thanks

    12. Any mention of braking systems on the other, non magneto, tyre hub would be helpful as you’re adding an impeller with extra weight to the whole chassis.

    13. My 4 year old can fit these conversion kits with blindfold and one arm tied behind his back. These guys make it sound more complicated than it is. Just go ahead and do it, it's so easy.

    14. There good at burning your house down while charging.

      A 250 four stroke is half the price, coats £8 to fill with 100 mile range and will outrun most car's.
