Hey guys
Im interested in building my first ebike and I need help procuring the parts.
The bike I have chosen: https://www.halfords.com/bikes/mountain-bikes/kreativ-ht26-disc-mens-mountain-bike---50cm-437894.html?dwvar_437894_colour=Black%2FRed
What the bike will be used for: I won't need to go super fast, just 10mph max will do. But I do need to go up a few steep hills around where I live, so it needs to be powerful enough for that. I will use it for 2-4 miles per day.
So I'm thinking of buying a direct drive ebike conversion kit. 1000W rear wheel. I prefer frame battery or bottle battery.
I have a few questions:
1. I'm in the UK, so what's the best UK (or EU) website for quality conversion kits and batteries?
2. Do I need to put a torque arm on either side of the bike?
Sorry if something like this has been posted before or if I have posted in the wrong section!
Cheers.
