i wanted to make an electric bike but i dont know how to make the chain spin... how does it work?

does electricity and battery make it spin or what how does this all work?

Answer
You are right. An electric motor and battery are what is needed.

But most electric motors are either direct drive in the rear hub OR there is a roller that drives the front wheel directly. With your level of expertise I'd recommend getting a kit. Australia do some good ones.

Answer
There are a wide variety of electric bike kits available. Most include hub motors which are pre-installed on a rear or front wheel. You simply install the wheel, run the wiring along the bike to a controller and battery, and you're all set. Here are a few of the different options available:

On average, you can expect to pay between $300-$400 for an electric bike kit (without battery). Then batteries will vary depending on the battery type, but can cost from $125 -$500+
