Hi guys, been lurking on here for a short while but now is the time to say hello and ask a few questions!
I'm struggling to find a decent kit to convert my current bike, there's so many people doing them I can't narrow down who to use. The bike is a hybrid with 27.5" wheels.
I do a 10 mile commute 5 days a week with 2 hills each way. I'd like to be able to do 20-25mph assisted is fine not too fussed about a throttle.
I would prefer a hub drive purely for aesthetics over a mid drive but as I understand it mid drive are cheaper so I'm not totally against them.
I'd like to purchase everything from m one place in a kit ideally as I don't understand the mixing and matching of batteries and motors from different companies unless you guys can help me there?
This kit seems good albeit a expensive and a big overkill for my needs?

I've donr some reading on here and see the EMV3V comes highly recommended, but all of their kits don't seem to come with a matched battery and I don't know which one to pick? Such as this

I'm in the U.K so customs charges would have to taken into consideration as well.
Thank you.
