I converted my 10+ year old bike to an e-bike,
having made the 2-pack 41V battery myself from
recycled lithium-Ion batteries, with the help
of Substation33 at Kingston Qld, Australia. I
ordered the motor from China and bought front
and back racks.

Additional FeaturesI decided to get a front and back rack and put milk crates on them,
to double as a concealed battery compartment and semi dry carry
space. I changed this to side bags at the back, as the weight was too
high.
