Buying new ebike vs conversion kit - LordVader - October 30, 2025
If you’re thinking about going electric what’s the smarter move buying an ebike conversion kit to upgrade your existing bike, or investing in a brand new ebike altogether?? Is it better to customize what you already have, or start fresh with a purpose-built electric ride?
How much $ would I save roughly by just buying the kit? Any pitfalls?
