Hi, I'm new to the forum. The new NG magazine got me thinking, on thier report about China they mention how popular the electric bikes are, and they run with lead acid batterys, in the caption below the picture they mention the cost is $200 to $300.. Thats a complete bike. So I'm looking around again to buy a kit. I've never owned an e bike and I live on a hill about 3/4 from the main road I'd like to visit.. I guess I'll poke around and read up before I buy something...
