When Buying An Electric Bicycle Hub Motor Kit

Here are some tips you should consider before buying an electric bike hub motor kit:

• Ask if the kit will fit your bikes frame size. It wouldn't be much fun buying the kit only to find it dosen't fit!
• Make sure the company you buy the hub motor from will be available if anything happens to go wrong.
• Be safe in the knowledge that they will fix any mechanical faults if anything like that happens.
• On delivery, make sure all is well, and the box hasn't been battered for dear life.
• The instructions should be inside. Generally it should be in this order: Fix the wires up, connect the motor and controller, fit the battery pack on, and lastly fit the new handlebar on with the throttle or whatever features it has.
