Ok, well heres he deal, 80KG, ridden all my life, dont drive a car!
I need something that will get me up Springvale road as quickly as possible during peak hour. I can pedal it in 30 minutes and arrive in a lather of sweat.
Id prefer to do in in style with electric assist and arrive fresh! No showers at the other end you see.
Front hub, rear hub, LIon, Lipo, gel batteries, Im not a Scientist, its all a bit hard reading Newton Metres? charts etc, you know what I mean.
As much as I hate to say it, price is no object. I ride a Hybrid, 700 rims, Id prefer to adapt this than buy another bike, but if I have to, I will!

and
http://www.evehicle.com.au/bicycle.shtml?openmenu=5# seems to have the biggest range and the most info. I plan on going there tomorrow.
Forget the 200w bizzo, I want maximum watts, the best battery I can buy.
Its worse than trying to adopt a baby, trying to choose one of these, `specially when its going to cost a grand or so.
So... any advice/opinions you can give me would be great! Im in Melbourne. BTW Id like to still be able to have a pannier or two on and I do like the look of those batteries that lock with a key.
ta and look forward to hearing from you!
