Hi Tmsboys,

That's amazing what you've done. How hard was it to switch everything over to your old mountain bike? Did you run into any problems? I'm curious to know what the old mountain bike may weigh and how fast the bike is on a flat level pavement now that it's electric. Also, for reference, what's your body weight? Thanks and great job. I may have a friend that may follow in you foot steps.
