Hi all.

Im looking too get back on the bike with an ice/bike conversion and have built 2 electric bikes previously. 1 was a 200w kit which i still have and the other a 500w custom which got stolen. Ice is the way too go for me as the range, speed and practicality of electric wont give me what I need this far out of town.

Im selling my cars and lightening up on material things as i realise they've trapping me in certain ways but you still need transport hey when your away from the city.

Been reading this forum all week and have a rough plan of atack.

Felt cruiser Vintage ion , morini 3hp engine , jack shaft and nuvinci hub. Still rough at this stage.

Ill have a few questions no doubt and may as well do a build up thread.

Cheers
