Okay guys, I know I could probably search the forum and read for hours and hours and find this, but it's probably helpful if we have it all in one place anyway.
Here's the thing, I have been planning on building an e-bike since last year. I read the various forums, and found out what I needed. The problem was, we had several feet of snow here at the time, so i put it off.
Now I know things change with time, and it's been several months, so I am hoping there are better suppliers, better technology, cheaper prices, etc.
I want to build the stealthiest e-bike as possible. And I plan on putting it on a small, folding bike that I can take on a train.
Any suggestions on what to buy, and where to buy it? I'm not really worried about finding the bike itself, just the motor, batteries, controller, etc. All the stuff that would make it an e-bike...
Thanks guys...
