Built with simplicity of install in mind, this kit includes just the Motorised Wheel, Controller with mounting bag, and choice of 2 Throttles (half-twist or thumb), no need to bother with the Pedelec, Display or Brake Cutout installation, and this keeps the handlebars and cabling more minimalist.
The subtle and stylish matt-black mini-motor comes in either a front or rear wheel. The planetary geared motor is totally freewheeling, meaning there is no resistance to the normal rolling motion of the wheel.
Our wheels are built using durable double-wall rims and thicker 12G spokes, to withstand the extra weight and torque of the motor. The motor casing also includes holes to attach a disc brake rotor, if you bike has discs. All common wheel sizes are available to choose from.
This quality motorised wheel is matched with a compact 14amp controller, the brains of the system, positioned between the battery and the motor. All cables come to this hub, and are designed to be appropriate lengths for the average bike. We supply a bag for you to mount tis wherever suits you.
Please note: Throttle-only e-bike systems are not strictly road-legal at 250w (unless limited to 6km/h, which can be set with the 250w Hub Pedelec system). If you stop pedalling, it looks really obviously illegal too (I know, there are plenty of people out there doing it!). So its your choice. Throttles are great for people who really need the assistance starting-off, before they have rotated the pedals enough for the pedelec to kick in (around a quarter turn on the pedals).
We offer an Extended Warranty when we install the system, then giving 2 year warranty on products, and lifetime on the installation (providing we undertake the free annual safety checks).
We are so sure you won't be disappointed, we are happy to offer you a 7 day 100% Satisfaction Guarantee on this kit.. Love it, or you'll get your money back! Please note that the Satisfaction Guarantee on kits is limited, as this does not include labour. It rests with the Dealer who sold the bike / kit, and requires the bike / system is returned in ‘as-new condition’ with less than 50kms travelled since purchase, within the stated time frame.
We offer a wide range of options to make the kits ideal for as many types of bikes and riders as we can. Please check out our System Builder to ensure you get the right components for your complete e-bike conversion system.
No longer will you be limited to where you can ride. The hills will feel flat, and the world will open up for you when you upgrade your bike with a REV-Bikes electric assist system.
Our kits can electrify ANY bike, often giving a new life to your old trusty. But if you'd prefer a brand new and shiny bike, check out our recommended bikes for this kit.
