I wanted to share with the forum that I just incorporated a new business and will be opening up an Ebike specific shop from within my current shop of Holmes Hobbies/ Holmes Bikes. The name is Volt Riders, and we will be supplying basic 20mph kits along with custom builds for the community. Wheels will be assembled in house with high quality components, and all other kit parts are being sourced independently so we aren't tied to one companies' "standard". Our city is small, about 100,000 people, and the majority of people commute less than 10 miles per day. I am just the brains behind the business and am only supplying factory contacts, troubleshooting, assembly, and marketing knowledge to train the workers. I will also be hiring out my spoke machine labor to the company so I will gain an extra 10 to 15 hours back a week for prototyping on the CNC and producing new Ebike and robotic components!
Along with the regular ebike stuff we will also provide service for 49cc scooters and mopeds. We all (my shop community) have lots of experience with them and constantly have people asking for service, so it just makes sense to have labor available.
With some luck we can really make a difference in our town! It would be awesome to get even 100 people out of cars and onto bikes for their daily commute and errands.
