Whilst there are a range of ebike motor sizes available - 250w to 1000w. For recreational and commuter biking plus the ability to ride the growing number of scenic bike trails around New Zealand, we recommend the 500w mid-drive conversion kit that enables travel over most types of bike trail terrains coupled to distances in excess of 60+km per battery charge.
The mid-drive motor is an extremely efficient ebike drive. It provides the rider with a range of gear options coupled to nine different levels of "power assist", and with the motor and its battery being located in the middle section of the bike it ensures a low centre of gravity.
Our mid-drive conversion with its low centre of gravity ensures even weight distribution thus enabling greatly improved rider control of the bike to that of the wheel hub-drive design.
All our mid-drive installations are individually 'in house' programed by the installer specifically to suit New Zealand riding conditions and cost considerably less than a factory ebike.
The ex-factory motor settings unless programed do not utilise the full range of features incorporated within the motor's specifications. Our 'in house' programing of the unit's electronic control system ensures smooth and undectable shifts over the entire range of power 'assist' levels, along with ensuring a high level of battery economy.
The range of conversion kit options enables the selection of a mid-drive motor best suited to the rider's intended use, whether it be urban commuting or recreational biking on some of New Zealand's numerous picturesque bike trails.
