And most decent mid drive factory bikes are going from $3000 on up, so to spend less than $1200 on a mid drive motor, at least a 15 amp hour battery and charger to put on an existing bike seems like a decent deal to me. Plus it will have more performance to boot. 350 watt Bosh drive bikes are not cheap.von said:The exchange rate is 6 to1 and I just saw a bafang BBSO2 selling for $500 dollars direct from china Wow thats $3000 yuan these people are going to the bank ! all for a mediocre electric motor and some sub par electronics and then you still need to find a bike, buy batteries and assemble it all ? no wonder china now has more millionaires than the US or canada
Exchange rates don't mean anything, what means something is the bottom line. Don't know how much it costs to make one of these motor kits but there is markup along the way.
