So new to ebike, and I've discovered some important accessories needed that might not be entirely evident for first timers. Feel free to add:
1. Better kickstand. $20 - Especially if you are starting out with lead acid batteries, you don't want your bike falling over from the extra weight.
2. Good helmet. $40-$100. You'll find yourself going much faster for longer periods of time. Protect yourself appropriately.
3. Cell phone mount. $20-$50. You will be itching to see how fast you are going and keep track of your battery distance capabilities.
4. Better Bike Lock. $25-$50. Protect your extra investment and make sure you lock the frame and front wheel hub into the locker.
5. Rear-view mirror. $10-$25. I've never even considered this before, but now that we can keep up with traffic you'll want to see behind you for lane changes and turns.
Cheers,
