I'd avoid at nearly all costs. I had to buy 4! gotrax bikes before I got a working battery. Customer service is pretty weak. Regretting not getting a Ride1up, or the rad bike similar to this (which is only $200 more).

a 350watt motor ebike isn't worth more than $500 currently. If you are going to spend more than that, look for a 500watt motor.

I don't think that there are any. I think his point was mainly to try and warn people that a 350w e-bike might not be what they expect. In the E-bike community 500w is usually the lowest that most will go with 750W being the sweet spot in between the 500w and 1000w mainstream offerings, while still keeping the bike in class3.

totally depends on what the purpose is, i own a 350w and its got plenty of power for urban commuting or just sub urban joy riding...yes for more serious stuff you probably want to go higher but id say for 95% of the the folks depending on their use a 350w should suffice

What? Just look on Slickdeals for Joyride. LOL, I have bought 5 350W eBikes already for $360 each, free shipping, and no tax. The deal has been going on for a few weeks. Just bought another one today.

They work great, have a listed 20mph and 30 mile range. I removed the limit, so depending on your weight, via throttle you can get up to 25 mph. I get 22 mph via throttle. It is single speed so it is hard to go above it on a flat road. I may put in a bigger front sprocket so I can ride it with some effort at 25 mph.

For anyone that has some bike mechanical know how, you can get a 1000w ebike conversion kit for $~200 or so online (without battery.) Add a battery and a torque arm and you can end with a pretty decent and powerful ebike. I converted my generic bike last year, bought a large battery, and it's still running strong today. I take it out 1-2x/day, about 5-10 miles each time, haven't had any issues. The drive wheel treads finally wore all the way down last week and I replaced them along with the brake pads for good measure, although the break pads had plenty of life left.

Could be a decent way to get a strong ebike on a budget, especially if you have a suitable bike already. It may not look as clean as a retail ebike depending on your cable management skills and such.

You can also get 1500w kits or 2000w kits for a little more, but keep in mind the batteries needed for higher wattage are pricier too.

Can you share where to get a 1000W conversion kit for about $200?

edit: never mind. I can find kits for a bit over $200.

I actually have a bafang mid drive and battery sitting in boxes for 4 years. Too much to try to figure out if I could get it to work with my tandem recumbent.

Much easier to buy a 350W 10Ah bike for $360 and make use of it right away!
