Ok, I want to build a 1500w ebike using a Columbia 1937 deluxe as a base. My part choice so far is:
Lithium 48v 35ah battery
620$

Risunmotor 1500w kit
407$

I was going to get this cheaper ebay kit:

220$
I like the risun motor kit because it has a sine wave controller and option for a single speed, but with shipping its about double the cost.
I will be commuting about 10 miles, this is the route, https://www.google.com/maps/dir/264+Main+St,+Gloucester,+MA+01930/Farm+Bar+%26+Grille,+233+Western+Ave,+Essex,+MA+01929/@42.6051949,-70.8147031,12z/data=!3m1!4b1!4m14!4m13!1m5!1m1!1s0x89e3250549467993:0x5afe17ab89cbc9ea!2m2!1d-70.6585403!2d42.6150969!1m5!1m1!1s0x89e3180630369615:0xf0e7516a56e03c8!2m2!1d-70.8156099!2d42.6224018!3e1
Does this seem like good parts or would you recommend something else? I've had some electric vehicles but nothing this expensive.
I want the best reliability i can get, that's why the lifepo4 battery, hub motor, and single speed bike. I can charge at work, but would like to not have to incase i forget. And i do live in new England with bad weather so a bike that's good on a wet road would be nice.
