This is a Bakfiets box bike that came into the shop for electric conversion this week. We put the Bafang mid-drive kit on it and it works a treat. The Solar Bike rear rack battery replaced the existing rack. It’s well equipped now to take two kids strapped in up any hill. Bafang make great mid-drive motors, you take the existing crank out and replace it with the mid-drive motor system. They’re a little bit more expensive than hub motors but have their own advantages. The bike came from a group called “Dutch Cargo Bike“, they have an importer based in Claremont and stock a bunch of fancy cargo bikes. Some of the better known cargo bikes they import are the Douze, Nihola, Bakfiets, Biomega and Bullitt models. Well worth having a look through their site if you’re interested in this type of cycling. Bring it over here if you want to make it electric!
