    And how much is a battery?

    • You may consult the local battery shop, it may be several hundred dollars

      • +3

        Note that battery shops are often pretty greedy with their prices, so shop around and check ebay, etc. I've seen battery shops ask two-to-four times ebay price for small sealed lead-acid batteries for scooters, UPS, bikes, etc.

      • +3

        Maybe you should make that clear to potential buyers that the battery alone costs a few times more than the wheel

        • +2

          Hi Dosada. Depending on your DIY ability you can build yourself a very cheap eBike battery using Radio Control Hobby LiPO packs. It's exactly what I did for my eBike and works perfectly. The entire pack cost $115, produces around 55-58V @ 5000mAh and when fully charged I get 40km+ range with only very light pedalling here & there to help it along. Best bit is it's only the size of a stack of 4 DVDs and weighs hardly anything.

        • @SteveAndBelle: hey mate could you link me to what you have please?
          40kms ftom a battery as big as 4 dvds, for under $150 i'm sold

        • +2

          @ozy: Yep, just PM'd you. Oh and it's the size of 4 x DVDs in their cases… not just 4 x DVD 'discs' ;)

        • @SteveAndBelle: I would appreciate a link as well. I've been meaning to replace the battery on my bike but the cost of a suitable replacement has been holding me back too.

        • @SteveAndBelle: Could you kindly point me to what you have too? Sounds like a fun project. Thanks.

        • @SteveAndBelle: could you kindly point me to what you got too?

        • @eliama: Yep, I'd PM you the link however you don't have conversation ability enabled in your account. I've sent it to the others so just let me know when you've enabled it yourself and I'll shoot the link through OK.

          Steve.

        • @SteveAndBelle: Hi Steve, could you PM me the link please? thanks

        • @xkz0001: As per eliama above, I can't start a conversation with you as you need to 'allow private messages'. To fix this you need to click on My Account (at the top of the OzBargain page) - then Settings - then Messaging - then check the 'Allow Private Messages' box. Let me know once you've done that and I'll send the message.

        • @SteveAndBelle: Hi Steve, thanks for the the explanation regarding PM. Can you send me a link now?

    • Depends on your budget. There are so many places around Australia selling batteries now starting from $300 all the way to $800.

        Probably never be an issue… until you're involved in a crash.
        Then you could be uninsured and get fined for driving an unregistered and unroadworthy motor vehicle.
        1000W might be fun on the off road trails though.

        • And uninsured.
          Means walking for a good 12 months.

          Might be a bit of a silly law, but it is a law and I personally wouldn't tempt it.

          And you could lose your house if you injure someone.

        • +1

          1000w motors arent looked upon kindly on off road trails…especially mtb parks where they arent permitted
          this is for private land use ONLY…

        • Cycling is already uninsured.

        • +1

          @coxymla:

          I think the point is that at 1000W it's legally a motorcycle.

        • @coxymla: Many (most?) cyclists would be covered for third party under their household insurance, but yes, all bets are off if you're riding something that isn't legal.

        • @banana365: many (most?) cyclists don't use electronic bikes.

        • @banana365: I had a quick look at my car insurance PDS, nothing about cycling or bicycles. Household might cover theft (mine doesn't, ask me how I know!) but definitely wouldn't cover third party.

      • +3

        Might be hard to dyno it, but it's very easy to put a power meter on it. All you need is a current clamp and a voltage reading.

  • Max load capacity: 85kg
    Net weight: 10kg

    The net weight is 10 kgs and not including the battery, the max load is 85kgs the bike itself is about 10-20kgs + 10kgs for this kit + battery 5- 10 kgs. So the most will fit 60 kgs , it is a female only kit!!!!!

    • +5

      Weight is distributed over front and back wheels unless you are pulling sick wheelies everywhere?

    • What about men who weigh the same?
      Being women only can a man still purchase this kit?

      • -1

        Dude forgot we're on OzBargain, scrawny azns abound. <3

  • +3

    Not sure whether this a good quality product, and 200w is the legal limit, but the price brings it into the realm of impulse buys, so gets a positive.

  • How many gears? Looks like a freewheel, so will not work with modern bikes.
    And freewheels tend to break the axle when heavily loaded.

    I like the photo of the full suspension bike with nowhere to put a battery.
    But 800W and only 30km/hr top speed? That would be about a 6-degree hill climb for 100kg total.
    I wonder what the real output and efficiency are.

    • It says 6 speed freewheel, the lower top speed is a plus as it means the motor is wound for better climbing rather than flat roads higher speeds.

      • Given the price, I suspect the power output is nothing like 800W,
        but if it were I'd trade some excess power for less weight.
        A legal 200W out should be enough to do 30km/hr on the flat, unless you are sitting up high.

        Given the cost and/or weight of batteries, its probably cheaper to spend more on a more efficient motor if you want any range.
        Still, if you already have suitable batteries, it might be a fun toy to try.

      If worried about legality change the controller to a 250w one from ebay $25 ish, remove any sticker on motor and the bike will look, run and test as a 250w one, makes a very cheap legal bike.

      And yes they are legal on private property as is.

    you might actually get some benefit from a bicycle that way

    • +1

      Whoa whoa Franco! I assume you're a cyclist but there's no reason to assume everyone else can pedal as well as you. eBikes are only going to get more & more popular so be prepared to have to adjust your attitude a little before you end up being a 'Cyclist' stereotype.

      • +3

        i have no problem with legal ebikes or pedal assist….its these ridiculously overpowered conversion kits that turn a bicycle into a motorcycle that i have a problem with.

        • +4

          Yeah, fair enough. 1000W is a little OTT but I still consider the law ridiculous as it's based on 'power' not 'speed'. Why not police cyclists speeds as that's so much easier and also catches out those non-motorised cyclists (usually clad in Lycra) who seem to think it's acceptable to do 40kph+ through busy city parks while yelling abuse at other cyclists and weaving around pedestrians. I also think a registration system should be implemented for all cyclists with a token annual fee (ie. $10-20) but I know that isn't a popular idea. Not sure why though. Oh and I'm a cyclist myself BTW :)

    • +2

      Franco are you healthy? some of us are not and need the assistance to be able to cycle at all, others choose to get lighter exercise by having assistance and studies suggest e-bike rider get fit, lose weight and often do more miles than the average cyclist.

      • 1000w motor is 4x the legal limit…this isnt assistance its doing all the work
        youre just along for the ride…any kms under your own steam is better than letting a motor do the work for you

        • Why do you care. You obviously feel superior to them already so stop worrying about what other people do.

  • +3

    To everyone worried about the 'legality' of electric bikes and vehicles….I cant honestly see how these are potentially any more dangerous than a regualar bicycle.

    In fact, at least they can still go up a hill at a decent pace while some mid 40's dude in lycra is sweating hills balls off getting in the way of traffic trying to navigate a roundabout at 6kmh.

    I personally would much rather see more electric vehicles on the road. Would entice people to use public transport reducing congestion. If a crank and gears on a bike helps the rider to travel faster a battery is just another step in the evolutionary change…but dont let big oil catch on.

    • +1

      I agree and anyone else who has seen the lycra warriors along the river in Burswood would agree too. ebikes are not any more dangerous than a normal bicycle and arguably less so because the person riding it is less likely to be "racing".

      • ~250w is the legal limit for an ebike….this is 4x that and will be an effin nuisance on public paths trails and mtb parks.

        • Agreed. almost as much of a nuisance as cyclist's on the road….

          This would be annoying though i agree. MTB trails the electric bike comes in handy for tackling uphills - its annoying when people treat MTB trails like motorX trails.

          I ride an electric skateboard for my commute to work. Always have cyclists pull me over and ask me about it. Especially when i overtake them on the bike path…

        • +2

          Buy this kit and change the controller to 250w, this is ozbargain and that makes a very cheap 250w ebike which will assist the rider.

      @Dicklee that's your opinion, yes sir Mr Judge, I think the rules are an ass, so I just did my own thing. Mr Judge says fine, but the law is the law, here's your X$ fine.

      The real point is that its illegal. so fight the system, and see who wins.

      • +1

        A couple of decades ago it was illegal to be gay in Australia (punishable by death). Luckily for you, there were people who fought the system…

        • -3

          I doubt if you will get popular groundswell of this issue like gay rights did. However if you want to protest for this "very" important issue, and go to jail, like the early gay rights activists go for it.

  • Hi there, my rear bike tyre says 700x35C
    My question is will this kit fit my bike?

    • yes

      • 700c is the new 26"? :P

        • sorry. bad math on my part

    • no

    • 700C is the same rim size as a "29er", both 622mm, a lot more than the 559mm of a 26", so no.

  • Come on guys, there's no way that these things are as safe as normal bikes.
    If you were to take all cyclists off the roads and replace them with Ebikers I'd be very surprised if accidents didnt increase substantially. And that's without any Lycra.

    • Hell yes. While the top speed is modest, they accelerate madly at low speed, e.g. congested traffic, crossing intersections.
      - which is bad in two way: cars don't expect bikes to do that, and the riders have much less time to react to problems.
      You could make them safer by limiting acceleration as well as top speed.

      Motorcyclists often claim they feel safer with a bigger engine, but the data says otherwise.

      What we need is a new legal category of motor vehicle for e-bikes. Something like a moped, where the rego is low, and the licensing easier.
      Say, normal drivers license plus a 1/2 day training. And the vehicles need to pass suitable standards. $99 K-mart bikes with a 1000w motor are obviously not a clever idea.

      • I dunno, I've built and tinkered with lots of crazy stuff including high powered motors on cheap KMart bikes and thanks to their heavy and super strong steel frames they work really, really well for general flat riding. The weight doesn't help with hill climbs of course but they still do it OK. Can't do tricks on them though ;) They absolutely need better brakes but you can upgrade the brakes for not a lot.

        My latest project is a ground-up build of a mid-drive, full carbon single speed and I've gotta say it's so much more fiddly than a nice old steel frame. I'm also about $1300 into it and still haven't sourced the motor, ESC, Battery Pack or the Crankset yet. Ouch!

      • Bicycles are legally classified as road vehicles. We already have a category for them.

        The problem is that (in Victoria at least) many cyclists just hop on and off the footpath whenever it suits them, despite being illegal to do so, lack of helmets etc, not to mention the more serious issues of going through red lights (which I see at least 2-3 times every day, if not more).

        Into this mix we want to throw the vehicles with high acceleration and no licensing or registration requirements that people will continue to ride like regular bicycles? No thanks.

        Register all vehicles, require license testing to be done for each class of vehicle you wish to drive/ride and add that endorsement to the license.

        If left unchecked and unregulated, things will start to get messy indeed.

      • "cars don't expect bikes to do that, and the riders have much less time to react to problems"
        Any driver that doesn't allow for that level of acceleration from a bike should hand in their licence even if most are slow you have to allow for all situations, I could accelerate faster on a light bike than an ebike when healthy, according to my watt meter I could peak at 1kw for a short burst and on a light bike well….

  • It will not fit? Not sure if the size of the wheel will fit it.
    I've checked the measurement at the axle, it will fit that way.

    • +1

      yeh but diameter of the wheel i.e 'wheel size' is the crucial bit…
      dont worry about it, its better that you remain unmotorised…..you get to use your cardiovascular, respiratory & muscular system that way ;)

    • +1

      Yes, this 26" wheel should easily replace your 700C rear wheel as it's smaller than the wheel you have however your brake caliper wont line up with the new rim so you'll be left with only the front brake and that could be pretty dangerous, especially with 1000W propelling you! Depending on the type of brake you have you may be able to realign the pads with the new rim or even remount the caliper by fabricating a bracket or whatever but it should work in theory. You will also then be running a slightly larger front wheel which may screw up how the bike rides & reacts BUT you're also adding many KGs in the form of the motor so you'll be changing that anyway.

      Best thing you could do if you're really keen on this deal is to buy one now then wait for a KMart or BigW sale and pickup a basic steel frame bike for $100 then fit it to that. You'll probably also need to upgrade the crappy brakes they come supplied with too as they wont last long. You should also expect lots of tinkering & fiddling to keep it running as good as it can too. You could also trawl Gumtree and snap up a decent 2nd-hand bike as there's always lots available.

  • Without battery this is worth nothing. It is actually much cheaper to buy an electric bike rather than going through an expensive nightmare. So please think twice before jumping the gun, this is no deal.

    • +1

      My 10ah 36v battery pack cost about $150 so add $88 for the 36v 800w 26" wheel kit and you have a full ebike kit for $238 to fit to your existing bike, I haven't seen an ebike for that price ever.
      The batteries are Hobby king batteries and you have to handle them safely but very powerful and mine are already 4 years old and still going strong.

      The only issues with this kit is that it is heavy and direct drive, my geared motor is 2kg plus 1.5 to 2 kg for the batteries.

    • Totally agree with geebee above but can also add that the commercially available eBikes I've worked on worth around the $1000-$1500 mark were pretty hit & miss and when they did work it wasn't long until problems arose. Very rarely problems with the electrics but I did have one with an intermittent ESC fault that even the original retailer couldn't troubleshoot however most of the issues were with the mech of the rest of the bike. Low quality & poorly executed brakes, chain problems, poorly fitted bottom brackets, the list goes on & on. If you can't build one yourself then be prepared to pay decent money to get something good. $2000+ is about where it's at right now for a decent Commuter IMO but you can build your own very, very decent eCommuter (for example) based around a $500-$700 bike for about $1500 total but you can of course also DIY one for a lot less than that too if you want to sacrifice the 'nice' things ;)

  • Electric bikes and scooters are all the go in China as seen on my recent visit. You can't hear them coming.

    I am interested in the 36V 800W as a 36V battery would be easier but can't see how you order it or see it's description. Can't see an email either?

    Has anyone purchase the bike they offer early and recommends them?

    • Looks like its sold out :(
