Readers of this blog will already know that eBikes are by far the most efficient method of travel, but that I still decided to keep pedaling with my own muscle. I figured that I was gonna eat those extra burritos anyways, so why not use them for miles on my bike instead of inches on my waist? Well, COVID changed my whole mindset on this. Read on to find out why, learn the pros and cons of various eBike tech, and how I converted my own cargo bike to electric for under $700.

Thanks for the great post about building ebikes.
I stumbled on your site from a comment on MMM’s blog, and I’ve read every article thoroughly. It’s great to see someone go into depth about *how* to live a greener life, feel better, and — of course — come out ahead financially.
