Default where to buy directly

Hallo all,
with interest I am looking to all the posts.
I am from Germany where it is in the moment not common to add a motor on a bicycle, which may be also a prob. to German law .
But, due to the increasing gas prices it could be worth to study it.

For me, it could be from interest to get some adresses of reliable suppliers from far east or the US, to sell the products in Germany.
It would be great, if somebody may help me, on the alibaba sites there are some, but up to yet I didnt get any reply.

Greetings from the old world.

Osram

The best price I got was 60 dollars U.S. per kit...but I had to buy 1250 kits at a time.

Joe that was for a complete kit Damn if we had enough people to go in that would be worth a Grand to buy 1250 kits and sell some keep some. Just mak it a group buy. We do with Jeep parts sometimes to keep the cost down. No where near a thousand kits but still we get a heck of a break.

Guys something to think about.......I could sell probly 10 kits today if I had a Good price for them.

Yeah 85 grand was a bit much for me to come up with....and I'm sure that wouldn't have been the "out the door" price.

dang, that'd be a decent profit though. Even just selling them at $120 per kit (hello ebay sellers) would net you a decent take.

HI Osram,

Welcome to the group...while, I can't help you with the engine kits if you even need a sprocket just PM me and I'll do my best to work with you on that....

As far as the quantity of kits you need yo buy to get a price break all I can say is WOW....that is A LOT of engines!....As jasonh mentioned tho good potential profit but WOW that is A LOT of engine....Group buy would be nice but did I say WOW that's A LOT
of engines!? ;-)

so if 75 people chipped in $1000, each person could get like 16 motors. Sell 10 to your friends for $120 each, you get 6 free motors and 20 bux to boot
