Introduction
Welcome to Nano Bikes, we supply electric bike kits to fit conventional bikes that can be fitted by yourself or by ourselves. We also supply a full range of batteries both to support our electric bike kits and as replacements or enhancements to other manufacturers electric bikes.
Why an Electric Bike?
There are many reasons why people buy an electric bike; here is a small selection…
- No sweat … I want to cycle without arriving sweaty and needing a shower!
- Mobility … I have difficulty walking and my electric bike has given me back my freedom. I would simply be lost without it!
- Extending range … My commute is 18 miles, for me that is too far on a conventional bike but my electric bike makes it possible
- Speed … I can cycle the 2 ½ miles into town and be in the supermarket before I could have parked the car.
- It’s the environment … Compared to even a small car’s CO2 of over 100 g/km my electric bicycle achieves less than 6 g/Km!
Personally I love the feeling of going up a hill, I gentle peddle as if on the flat and the bike rises taking me effortlessly up the hill; it makes me smile every time!
Why an Electric Bike Kit?
- Gives a new lease of life to your existing bike
- Modular design enables battery size/weight and motor can be tailored to suit your needs
- Easy to swap out or upgrade battery or other components as required.
- All parts are supported – we can therefore replace individual parts – not the whole kit or bike!
- All our kits pass the ‘What, no power!’ test. There may be times when your battery fades on you, when that happens it is important you can still ride the bike without bursting out in sweat.
- Can be reverse engineered to give you a conventional bike (although we don’t think you’ll want to do this!!)
