Q. Hey I'm going to be moving a ways away from my kung fu school. So I will have to bike there but we are talking like 30 miles away at least. So my question is if anyone knows what that bike adapter kit is where it lets you switch between pedaling and driving?
Answer
there are allot of electric bikes and kits out there, but the problem is weight, performance, and distance per charge, remember, if you use those batteries for 10-20 Miles they are bone dry, and you have to pedal with an additional 80 pounds of weight, so you think, i ll add more batteries, but then you add more weight, then you need a bigger motor, so on and so forth, to have a more efficient setup you would need lighter batteries that last longer, lithium ion, or nickle metal hybrid, but they are very pricey, and you would need allot of them.
electric biking is not yet a transportation alternative, unless your going very short distance.
but if you wait, I'm currently working on a revolutionary concept for power assisted bicycles that will be available on the market for the summer of 2007 and will give you a 250 mile autonomy, and will only add 9.2lbs.

I live in aventura and i have a 9 mile ride to work. I always ride my bike all the way over there, but i'm getting tired of it. I would like to buy a electric bike conversion kit to make my life easier. Do you know of any place near aventura that sells that kind of kit?
ps ... its not a motorcycle.....it's a common human powered bicylce ;).... need a cheap electric conversion kit for it urgently
Answer
Buy an electric motor and put it where the gas powered motor is. Than hook up battery packs. This site here has instructions: http://blog.makezine.com/archive/2007/02/diy_electric_motorcycle_c.html
