@semitones asks:
Q3. Any of y'all messed with E-bike conversion kits? Are there any that are super light weight so you can still ride it up hills as a normal bike, or can back convert easily to a normal bike by swapping out a wheel or something? Ty!

@ascentale @semitones #BikeNite A3 I've had two #hillTopper kits, one with 27in wheel circa 2013, and the more modern sprinter kit with 20in wheel on a supercargo. It's a limited speed (17mph in 27in) and simple throttle-only control (they also have pedal sensors on the bigger kits) but it's only 13lb and freewheels like a normal hub when not powered. The conversion is easy (add a torque arm but otherwise just getting the axle and cable oriented correctly.
