Which e-kit would you put on a Big Dummy, I'm thinking either stoke monkey or bionx? Seems like the stoke monkey is best for hills and heavy loads, I have heavy loads but no hills. The bionx seems to be good for flat terrain and bad knees, I have both. Another important factor for me is low maintenance.

I think both kits limit you to 20mph Both are big $ is this a DIY?

No it's not DIY, I'd have the local bike shop install it.

I like the Stoke Monkey and I'm thinking of getting one but we have steep hills all over around here. The Stoke Monkey only fits Xtracycle type bikes or other cargo bike but the Bionx can be moved to another bike if you should want to. It may be easier to sell the Bionx for that reason if you ever want to.

For best range and efficency the stroke monkey would get my vote. For someone that wants a TurnKey setup sold by a LBS that is a bionx retailer then it would get a vote.My LBS's haven't even seen an ebike and would require someone like me to support them if they sold them. So I chose the DIY approach.

Well version 1.0 is finally done


Version 1.5 adds a XtraCycle Kit whenever it's delivered.
