    Should I upgrade my components for my bafang conversion?

    That right there is probably the best advice I could've gotten. I have a problem with doing things right or not at all which costs me money :D You are absolutely right, I should probably let the bike speak to me once its been converted, because as of now the bike is fine for what I do, I just...

    Should I upgrade my components for my bafang conversion?

    I am concerned about weight. My bike is not exactly light. I feel like in the long run I'd like to get the lekkie chainring so might as well get it with the kit and save on shipping. Hmm how comfortable is shifting on the grip shifter, I have bad wrists so I have replaced my grips with...

    Should I upgrade my components for my bafang conversion?

    1) Correct, however DT has a conversion kit to convert them into QR 135mm. 2) Okay, I will be considering the brakes for sure. I guess that kind of makes sense, I was worried that the deal on the wheels would end by the time I get everything working. I am actually getting a Lekkie chainring but...

    I wish I could've gone with them but their prices seem to be way out of my budget ( max $1500 for the kit and battery ) for a decent conversion kit including a battery. Or maybe I have been looking at the top notch ones . Do they have anything in my price range that would fulfill my needs ?

    Very cool bike mate! how does the Mac kit handle hills ? I heard a lot of good things about the Mac kit but I don't know why I do not like hub motors , and I haven't looked into them much . I just don't like the idea of the motor being on the rear wheel :S I will definitely get a 29er , 27.5...

    Well I would say 20-30% of my 25 KM ride will include hills , 5% of them being serious hills and the rest nothing that a human can't handle . Yes , If I were to go with the Paul's 48v 500w Bafang and 50V 16.5 AH triangle battery pack the weight including the charger will be 13.10 kg according...
