ChrisF Posted October 8, 2022 Share Johan you can also speak to Mark at - Mark's Bicycle Workshop 021 949 5219 Once you have your pricing sorted ... Have a look at the HT models from Darrvin - https://darrvinshop.com/ebikes/darrvin-peak-2c Sure, a bit more .... but now you have a new bike with a full warantee and backup. For lighter duty .... TITAN, yes this name keeps popping up all over .... https://www.sportsmanswarehouse.co.za/product/titan-charge-e-two-29er-mountain-bike/?gclid=CjwKCAjwv4SaBhBPEiwA9YzZvA2fIKeyhPlZ8KwzB4ceG6ri81l138edbz-U64Hb2psrjr0-FFFOtBoCySgQAvD_BwE PLEASE NOTE .... when you speak to Chilled Squirrel or Mark, discuss the "mid-drive" va "hub drive" options. Not just in cost but in terms of practical use ..... A couple of Hubbers have noted the "mid-drive" to be a technically better solution. Now have another look at the links above, both in terms of price and in terms of drive .... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Johan Posted October 10, 2022 Share Thanks gents. Ja I agree rather buy a bike from new and have back up. Conversions are expensive. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ChrisF Posted October 10, 2022 Share Johan speak to Louise at Knipe_Racing. They may just have a decent 2nd hand model for you. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
