I have an opportunity to build an ebike for a school project, so long as all parts are purchased through a tight list of approved vendors (essentially limited to Amazon as far as ebike parts are concerned).
I have a 26" donor schwinn, ~$1000 of budget for motor, controller, battery, and cycle analyst (or passable alternative). I have boxes of parts from other ebike builds to fill in the gaps.
Are there any successful stories here of bikes built from Amazon parts?
Battery?
Controller?
Motor? (DD, Front Hub)
Kit? (any kit worth it these days?)
It's been 8 years or so since I built a bike, and the only vendor I recognize on Amazon is BAFANG. I'd appreciate your help getting caught up. Thanks so much.
My performance expectations for this build are very low. I've only built big bikes with heavy motors and batteries in the past. If I can get a flat 10-15 miles at 20-25mph on a $1k budget, I'd be impressed.
