I'm thinking of getting a kit for my significant other. So probably a 350 watt rear hub motor and I figure the Ping battery seems the most cost effective. We have a reasonably decent 26" comfort bike that it can go on. Ideas?

2806 seems like the best option, decent torque and good speed since it is faster wound, matched well with the lower voltage.

keep it with a 25a controller, pings go to 2c

Too bad you dont need a 700c kit. I have a Wilderness Energy BL 36 with ping 36v 15Ah with a Wattmeter that I am probably getting rid of this week. BTW I love the BL 36 with the ping so that gets my vote.

are you looking for torque or speed? This is pretty good for both.

If you are looking for speed, the 2805 would be better and put it in a 26" rim...you'll have to pay about $80 extra to do that, though.

e-bikekit.com also sells the nine continent but it's a 2807 I think and just a little slower than the 2806.
