All the same rules will make you a success at this too.

Look up the member PedalUma and a bunch of his posts with pictures of his builds for inspiration along the lines of clean, light weight and smooth application of power. (If those things are your preferences.)

Welcome to EBR.
 
Hello all.
55 Y/O.
Built by own bikes from spare parts as a kid.

Moved on to Cars and Motorcycles.

Getting back into Bikes and just starting with ebikes.
Welcome to EBR. There are several builders on here, some pro and some just for themselves, and there is an advanced forum just for those who have questions about builds and kits, motors and batteries, and troubleshooting if you are looking to build.

And there are many who bought a direct to consumer brand b/c it made sense financially even though they could have built one.

I bought from a bike shop since I hadn't touched a bike in decades.
