The Norco Scene is probably one of our consistently best sellers. The stepthrough design seems to lend itself perfectly to the electric aesthetic, aswell as suiting a wide range of commuters. Gone are the days where the stepthrough frame meant womens bike, the Scene is truly a versatile model designed for both men and women. So enjoy the comfort and stability of a stepthrough design without feeling like you borrowed your sisters bike!

Norco’s Scene gives the rider a commanding upright riding position, which increases both confidence and stablilty when riding and gives the commuter an excellent field of vision which is perfect for the more urbanised areas.

This particular bike has been converted with one of our mini motors powered by a 36V 11.6Ah Solarbike battery. We find these bikes are an excellent choice for more senior clients who may be suffering from mobility impairment. Also people suffering disabilities/coordination issues will find it a lot easier to mount this bike.

This is what an ebike owned by a person who works at an electric bicycle shop looks like. This beautiful ebike is owned by one of our own friendly Solarbike staff members. The Montari by AVANTI is perfect for a conversion, this one has been converted with a high powered 1000W rear hub motor, the slim 48V 10.5Ah Solarbike battery is all you need to power a high powered 1000W motor. Larger 48V batteries are also available for those who want both speed and range. This particular model has been equipped for speed, with range being a secondary consideration, achieving 42km/h just with the throttle, its easy enough to get up to 50km/h with gentle pedalling, with an approximate range of 20-25km..

The advantages of a conversion as opposed to just buying an electric bike, are conversions are infinitely more customisable, want to build an ebike for range, to get you through a long distance commute (80km)? Want something purely to get you from A to B in the minimum possible time without you sweating or getting all flustered, we can do that. Want something in between that offers both speed and range in equal balance, we can do that… Want to start with a small battery and motor, you can do that and then gradually upgrade your setup as you get a taste for power? Perhaps you already have a bike you really like and would like to get that converted over. With conversions the possibilities are endless.

“You couldn’t wipe the smile off his face!” -Amy, Solarbike customer; re her husbands first electric cargo bike experience.

We received some feedback and a couple of images from a customer of ours. They had recently just converted this Bakfiets Cargobike with one of our electric bicycle kits. Bakfiets are the safest way to transport your children on a bicycle according to ADAC. Their concept of carrying children in a cargo bike was innovative and is now accepted world-wide as an alternative and green form of transport.

For many parents using a Bakfiets.nl Cargobike is a liberating and life changing experience especially on the school run and condensed urban areas. Since the first model there has been continuing development to allow you to carry babies, children, dogs, shopping and cargo with ease and in safety. Electrifying one of these kits is a fantastic option to help carry the extra weight that the Bakfiets allows you to carry.

This customer test rided the Bakfiets with a 40km round trip to the beach and back with his son comfortably seated and wearing a safety belt in the front.
