This is an old revision of the document!
With lot of ebikes kits available on the Internet, I wanted to make a try and transform a regular all terrain bike into an ebike.
You can easily find motorized wheels on eBay with the brushless motor controller, and also the throttle to add to the bike.
The main problem is the battery. If you want a good range, you need a big battery. If you buy them online, they are quite expensive and also with fixed sizes. So, it's quite difficult to integrate inside a bike frame to have something well integrated, like a fuel pod on a bike.
For that, I decided to make my own battery, and to solder it with a home made point solder unit, based on an Arduino program and a salvaged transformer of a microwave oven.
