Electric Bikes Links
This is a pot-pourree of various links that
I found useful when trying to evaluate electric assist bicycles.
A quick search on the web will reveal hundreds of links, however
many of them come and go. You will find this frustration often
during searches on the web - sometimes you find a gem, sometimes
a black hole. You have to maintain a skeptical attitude in order
to separate the wheat from the chaff and retain sanity.
- Bicycle-Power.com -
one of my favourites, a good overview of the worldwide availability
of electric powered bikes, batteries, and DIY kits.
- Lightfoot Cycles -
an interesting company in Montana close to the Trans-America
Bike route. In their own words: "We design and build dynamic,
evolving and improving human-powered vehicles. We seek to grow
a socially and ecologically responsible organization".

Electric Bike Network - "Think
Globally, Bike Locally" an interesting Bay Area business
that promotes and sells e-bikes

Bike Systems, Largo

kits

US - a vast web shopping mall
having a section on electric bikes.
