Bikes: too many of all kinds

linky no worky.

you need to define your budget, speed, range bicycle style (in your broken link?).
note: speed and range make the price go up quick, as most of the money is in the batteries.
you can start by reading em3ev.com web site. Lots of good info there if you are not turned off by all of the technical details. They are by far the best vendor in Asia. You will pay about double if you by something in North America, but then again the vendor support may (or may not) be invaluable.

My kits cost about $500 delivered (Q100 with 36v10ah), and for most people gives a top speed of either 15 or 20mph and a range of about 20 miles. About 2/3 of the cost is for the battery.

(I have a spare motor in my legs, so I end up going significantly faster and a bit farther).

I am living in Toronto Canada, here the winter is -4F to 100F in summer, you did use studded tires before, how is this in the winter time.
my distance from home to work is about 4 miles in a day. Summer time is easy but I never try in winter. most are flat only 3 min on a small slope inside the park that might have a lot of snow in the winter time.
