Is the Velec brand one to avoid? They seem to be the most readily available at this time.
They can be cheap and over priced like pedego.

The owner of the company is a nice enough guy buy not an great system. I use to actually interact with him him on a daily bases as he was one of the engineers for Bionx but left a couple of years before they went belly up.

I would tell most people under that price just to add a BBS02 kit and a battery to her current bike she loves.

To get a good bike that's decent enough really should be closer to 3600 before tax .
