Hello everyone,
I'm new to Endless Sphere, and have been contemplating an e-Bike conversion for some time. I've been really impressed so far with all the literature and information that electric rider supplies about their kits and was wondering what the general consensus was for them?
In particular I'm looking at the 48V Roadrunner Kit, for use making quick hops around town (Denver). Would this kit be suitable for use on a Trek 7100 (http://www.trekbikes.com/us/en/bikes/bike_path/hybrid/7100/) I'm roughly a 170 pound rider and I don't really see any need to exceed 20mph except perhaps in emergencies, and a range of as little as 10 miles isn't a problem given how close everything tends to be downtown.
Would you recommend substituting parts from the Roadrunner 4825 Kit? Different controllers? I've love to get all the input I can before I undertake my first electric bike.
Thanks much!
