Hi all,
I don't mean to be inflammatory with the title of my post, but I am interested in other's opinions of the direction of the DIY ebike market. I'm primarily interested in mid drive motors, and it doesn't seem like anything new has come out the last few years in the mid drive market. Most of the discussion seems to revolve around the BBS and Tongsheng motors with not much changing on that front.
I was pretty excited about the Propel motors created by Paul D but they sold out quickly and he has gone silent on updates, at least on IG.
What do you think? Are we going to see lighter, more powerful motors and batteries aimed at the DIY market? Or will DIY fade away as mass produced ebikes get more powerful and cheaper?
