Justin_Le stated in a video he was in that a lot of DIY'ers will lurk, study and learn for a long time, a year or so, then buy everything. I forget what video it was, perhaps it was the tour of the old GrinTech/www.ebikes.ca location by ElectricBikeReview. I remember this because thats exactly what I did, just because it was over a grand to get the EBIKE GRIN. :lol:
Welcome to the forum! I didn't know about it until after I went electric for a while. Might have done things differently if I had but no regrets, that's for sure!
