Hello from staffordshire

[hoodwinked]

Hi all im 40 from Staffordshire
ive recently been having some knee problems and have been stranded on me bike a couple of times so I thought an ebike kit might be just what I need for when the knee plays up
so I brought a kit off ebay but thought id come here for some advice.

That kit doesn't have a good pedal assist function. It's worth paying a bit more for one with a Kunteng controller and LCD, and a rear motor would probably be better unless there's a special reason that you want a front one.

There's many hidden problems when fitting a front motor. If you wanr/need help, sho a picture of your forks and a close up of the drop-outs without the wheel in them.
