eBikes

Commenting to follow this thread cuz I'm new to ebikes but shopping around for a reliable one if anyone has any recommendations

My daily ride is an Urban Arrow cargobike XL. It's overkill for most people, unless you have a) a large family, or b) a small business, or c) are just mad. Riese & Müller make a great range of ebikes at the premium end of the market. Brompton electric if you're short on space, or Tern are other good choices. I really like the Bosch motor in combination with a Gates belt and Rohloff hub gear for heavy duty work and fuss-free maintenance (based on over 11,000 miles experience).
[I would post a pic if I could work out how to do it!]

I pretty much only have conversion builds so all I can recommend is ebikes.ca for parts haha, they make a nice field oriented controller (baserunner) with thermal rollback and field weakening for higher top speeds that's super compact and fits in the empty space of hailong-style downtube batteries so it's nice for sleek builds as it's 100% invisible & hidden under the downtube battery, though I have mine hooked up to a cycle analyst display which adds more flexibility for throttle settings.

My dream build will be to get a custom titanium frame from waltly with ebikes.ca's G310 geared & clutched rear hub motor and a bottom bracket torque sensor, but that project has been on hold. Plus I also have an old FlyKly all-in-one rear hub from kickstarter on my road bike so I don't really need another ebike.
