when it comes to hub motor kits
I would never touch eBay sort of hub kits.
Of course you can assembly them , put on your bike if you have patience
how long they will last?
How reliable are such kits?
How often would have to push back shoddy connectors , tighten loose nuts, edjust and adjust.
I ride in subzero temp , my ebike hasto be reliable , I cannot stop in minus10C and start pushing connectors, tighten stuff or thinker with shoddy stuff.
Not really reliable. You get what you pay for rules - no difference from other products.
and riding experience?
if you enjoy whine of motor, jerking, cogging , on/off throttle which acts like a switch , useless misleading battery meter, and so on and on.
so it is for you
