Neat! I'm curious how much those kind of bikes cost, more for laziness than anything else ;) Edit: http://cyclingtips.com/2015/04/hidden-motors-for-road-bikes-exist-heres-how-they-work/ http://cyclingtips.com/2015/04/hidden-motors-for-road-bikes-... - Has some cool photos on how they work AUD $4,300 - eek!

  Why not just buy an eBike, there's a few under $1500 in this best of, and one sub $500 http://electricbikereview.com/top-10-electric-bikes/ http://electricbikereview.com/top-10-electric-bikes/

    Yeah, the $3,500 ones are super-lightweight with hidden components. If you don't try to conceal the functionality of your e-bike, there are plenty at much lower price points.

    Decent road bikes (the one that you use more than 10k miles per year) are more than $2000 on their own. The electrical components go on top of that.
