The start of my e-bike

I purchased my first bike in nearly 10 years yesterday, a fine bike from Electra Bike Company the Townie 7D. I have also purchased a Electric or "E-Bike" kit from Ampedbikes to upgrade the front wheel of the bike with a hub motor driven wheel, includes the throttle, brakes and so on. I also ordered a Lithium-ion (LiFePO4) Battery Pack as the power system for the bike.

SOOOOO in the next few days the parts will arrive and I will set up my new wheels and make my carbon footprint just a smidgen smaller. I will post on my progress.

Fantastic! And luckily for us, we have bike/scooter friendly streets on the Eastside, and I'm sure that like me, you spend the majority of your time around the echopark/silverlake/NELA area which makes having a bike like this 100% feasible.

I've Been working on my Honda C70 and hope to have it running in another month. Although I have the subway right by my house, it'll be nice to toot around town on the bike!
