    Where to buy my battery?

    Luna is out of stock, with no clue on ETA, which I find odd. That is the one I wanted. Didn't think finding one would be a challenge.

    Building my first ebike and the place I was going to buy the battery from is out and they have no clue when they will be available. Looking for a non Chinese 48v battery in the dolphin case.

    Battery for Trek Lift+

    One of the things I dislike about stock ebikes is the cost of a replacement battery. Battery is 36 volts. Anybody know if an aftermarket battery would work, or would I need to buy the real thing? Next question, where do you recommend buying the battery?

    Cable, or hydraulic brakes?

    I'm new to disc brakes, I'm assuming hydraulic are better? Looking at my potential donor bikes, all are Specialized Roll siblings, some have cable and some hydraulic.

    New Specialized Roll Sport and BBSO2.

    I only want assisted power while peddling and not an electric motorcycle. In my research today I learned that the system will not be torque sensing and now I'm wondering if this is what I want to do. I want the motor to apply more power when needed depending on conditions faced. Of course I...

    Which chainring?

    I'm looking for advice on selecting the correct chainring for my ebike build. The base bike will be a Specialized Roll Sport comfort bike. I'm 64 and ride mostly on paved bike trails and secondary streets. Lots of moderate hills around my home. Not a commuter. I also will not be installing the...

    New Specialized Roll Sport and BBSO2.

    Obvious question, I don't want the throttle on my bike because you can't ride on bike trails. I'm assuming I can just leave it off when I build, correct?

    Good for you! I'm a fair weather biker, but I admire those that brave the elements. I'm in Minnesota and there are some here that ride through the winter. Fat tire bikes are popular here.

    I'm doing it, just doing my homework first. Do you have a gear sensor? Also, where are the best install instructions found for the build? Thanks!

    New Specialized Roll Sport and BBSO2.

    What is IIRC? Ha, I got it now. Had to look that one up. :) Leaning heavily toward doing this vs buying new ebike. Thanks for the info on Luna, great resource.

    Great info. I've been on the Luna site and the BBS02 is on sale for $400, I'm assuming that's a good deal? What chain ring do you recommend?

    New Specialized Roll Sport and BBSO2.

    Wow, I'm very impressed! I'm new to the forum and have been wanting an ebike for a while now so my rides can be longer and with less strain on my body. Just returned from a week in Florida where I rented a Specialized Roll and was very impressed with it, so I did a search for an ebike...
