    Mahle ebikemotion / X35 system - Can you build from scratch?

    Hello, I'd like to convert my gravel bike to an e-bike using the Mahle X35 system. Can this be done? Was thinking you could use the bottle cage mount range extender battery as the main power source. Thank you in advance!!

    Where to get a Juicedbikes 52V*19Ah battery mount for a usual bike?

    I have a Juicedbikes 52V*19Ah battery left after my ebike was stolen and I'm planning to convert a usual bike(Treck Dual Sport 1) to ebike using it. I've googled it and it seems that battery is similar or is a Reention Dorado battery. Anyone know if I can buy it somewhere in the US?

    Is there any difference in voltage between two 48v batteries with different Ah?
