Tektro Dorado HDE710

It was customer's bike, not mine (anymore). I think with both bikes and packs maybe it was too unwieldy hanging off the back of the car. So we removed them.

Very easy to remove. Just use the included 5mm Hex Key. The 4 screws are stainless, thread locked M6x16mm.

The battery is removable, but if only one bike is on this rack, the pack does not need to be removed.

Sounds like a good idea. I would like to help. I could be instrumental in pulling this off. Please contact me if you guys are interested in moving forward: tora@juicedriders.com

Going 20" makes a lot of sense when the motor is added...

ODK Utility with a 9C Motor. A mid drive kit should be fun.

Before: 20'' Juiced Riders ODK Utility Bicycle... After: + 9C, CA, 48V LifePO4, 22A controller, wire basket and bag of chips. 26mph, solid ride.

Parts cost + assembly is only a portion of final retail product. $1000 retail Li e-bike is not easy but possible and need much service. No way to build a brand or platform to develop on. There is a balance, either extreme is no good.

ODK: grip shifter, r.lever, remote opener, battery display, mirror, bell, CA, LED, cadence, switch HID, switch LED, f.lever, throttle cut, 1/2 throttle

Dahon makes some racks that should fit.

I just got back from China, I go every year. There are tons of ebikes, more and more every year. You can buy a complete bike for like $200US. I saw a guy with delivery ebike with 10, 5-Gal water bottles on the back (very common). It is very flat in Beijing so those bikes have terrible torque...
