I want to convert a roadbike with knobbies to an e-bike, not an assist bike, meaning it should be able to ride on electric alone.

What is the best conversion kit to buy?

don't convert your road bike, just get a dedicated ebike. the best type is mid-drive, but they're pricey. where i live, the chinkbrand arrow-7 and its other various aliases are most common. big advantages of this bike: you can put any cells you want in the battery box, easy to own multiple battery packs, bike comes with fenders, racks, lights, etc. disadvantages: you look like a food delivery guy.

Why would I want to do that? They are noise, they stink, they need expensive fuel, you can't fix flats while underway, parts are more expensive, plus you don't get any exercize.

Technically, scooter is cheaper, than e-bike, since ICEs last forever, unlike batteries, and it don't require proprietary ECU annoying motor controller, most scooters have carburetor, which has instant response to throttle, which is nice.
The problem is that scooters are well-regulated, and you have to do rego and shit, which sucks.
E-bike are poorly regulated, which allows to install sneaky 2500W motor, remove last zero and pay no taxes.

All motors are nearly identical in terms of quality.
ECUs are more-less identical.
Batteries - you better assemble yourself from good cells, or extremely shitty used cells for cheap.

/fit/ here,
Quit being a fat lazy faggot and just pedal your bike, not waste time and money on gay-ass shit like 'e-bike conversions'. Seriously do you have so little self-respect that you allow yourself to remain fat, weak, slow, and overall disgusting?
>b-b-but I'm not any of those things!
I call bullshit even before you claim that. Post body pic WITH TIMESTAMP if I'm wrong, otherwise you're a slow fatass leglet who needs to get the fork out of his mouth and PEDAL YOUR GODDAMNED BIKE.

Post it straightaway or be JUDGED.

Any one who has ever ridden a bike knows that it sucks cock climbing hills when you are out of energy/done with your ride/climbing super steeps.

OP, Google lunacycle and get a middrive bbs02 or bbhd kit with a battery. The only people that harp on e-bikes are poorfags who ride steel fixies to their boyfriends apartment.

So what you're really saying is that you're fat, weak, slow, and can't ride. Gotcha.

Meanwhile us real cyclists can climb hills all day long and it's not a problem. GIT GUD fatty.

Nope, that's a one-shot personal best. Deal with it, I've done all the work I'm going to do. Figure out the rest on your own.

I wouldn't even be bothering e-statting like this if it weren't for the utter disgust I feel for unapologetic fatties like >>1274537 who won't even try to improve, they just want to strap a motor onto their bike and stay fat and slow.

The rest are in the 320-350 range because it's a HILL REPEAT workout, the point of it is to get as many done as you can. Meanwhile none of the fat weak whiners in this thread, who want to strap motors onto their bikes because ""'climbing hills is too hard""", could tackle that climb even ONCE without giving up before finishing it, THAT IS THE WHOLE POINT.

E-bikes are PATHETIC. PEDAL YOUR BIKES, IMPROVE. Then maybe you'll be able to climb hills like this without DYING.

Meanwhile how about you lose the grip on that fork, push yourself away from the dinner table, and go out and do some hill climbs so you're not so fat, weak, and pathetic?

You all can complain at me and be as salty as you want but you just don't get it do you?
>I'm not even all that great at climbing hills but I'm also not whining and complaining about climbing them, make an effort to improve, and I DON'T talk about strapping motors onto my bike so I don't have to DO THE WORK

You can't deny that anyone on an e-bike will go faster and work less than those who aren't on one. The only 2 things that non-ebikes have over e-bikes is that they generally weight less so they are generally easier to transport and they are cheaper.

Don't be jealous that e-bikes are objectively superior to non e-bikes when it comes to ease of riding and better average/max speed.

You forgot the """/sarcasm""" tag at the end.

Guess what? For that Strava segment, I'm only in the top 100 all-time for climbing it, and the guys in the top 10? They're MINUTES faster, impossibly faster, I'll NEVER catch them.

So: I'm no badass and I damned well know it.

But I'm not some pussy who wants to strap a motor to my bike either.

This whole country is full of fatasses and weaklings who apparently will do anything to avoid improving themselves physically. They'd rather be fat and weak and it disgusts me. You don't like what I have to say? You don't like *me*? Tough fucking shit.

That's hilarious, if you removed all the autism from 4chan in general there wouldn't *BE* a 4chan anymore, it's 100% autism, always has been, always will be, and you're 100% autistic for being here yourself, so how about you fuck off?
