If you're after a kit I would recommend the Cyclotricity ones. I sell quite a few of these and you can build the kit to suit your budget and needs.

Alternatively the Batribike Delta is a well built and popular mountain bike which also has a built in throttle.

Happy to answer any questions you may have.

As with much Cytronex stuff, this kit looks dear to me.

More than £1,000 for a small battery front hub kit is a lot of money.

Just having a quick look through that and I can't find any information on what battery is supplied with any of the kits.

It's their own battery with an included controller and special multi-pin connector. Judging by the size and weight, it's probably a 20-cell one, which means a real-life capacity of around 5Ah, depending on which cells they use.

If that's true then it's ridiculously small! The capacity should be clearly stated though. Don't think I even have any bikes available with a battery that small.

Another vote for an Oxygen MTB. Very good value bit of kit.

They describe it as 180wh.

Must have missed that. But that is ridiculously small. I use bigger batteries on model aircraft!
