I have been reading about motor size, battery size and problems that people have with picking a first kit to start I to the world of ebiking. Tho most of the posts I read say that they it ist for the heavier rider. I weigh 235 and travel about 15 miles one way to work. I have a few small hills,(5-6% incline) and speed isn't as big of an issue as my fat ass. As long as I can pass 25mph I can get to work in a reasonable time. I have been looking at getting the leaf motor kit. 48v 20a 1000w on a 26" MTB. Tho I keep reading that the leaf motor was made with small guage wires that could fry under my weight up a hill. I'll be peddling with the motor to help but I worry I'm still to big. Is there a motor and battery combo that won't break the bank, and my weight won't stress into a meltdown? Please help a newb. I have been a motorcycle rider for years and just had a near death experience with a sedan that didn't see me. I got lucky, and want to get off the road.
Any help finding a kit that will work for me is greatly appreciated. Thank you.
