[Oeva-list] Electric bicycles

[Tony Tyler]

Hi group I don't post much so here goes.  I just recently bought a mtn bide from goodwell 100 bucks bike looked brand new.  A lousy job of putting it together otherwise it was a brand new bike.  I have been looking for alternative transportation that does not require a drivers license, and not use any gaseoline at all.  I anounced a couple of years ago a war on opec here is my less than 1000 dollar entry.  I bought a conversion kit from a dealer in vancouver wa found him on Craigs list the kit was very non specific but had a lot of brackets and nuts and bolts and not a clue how or where any of them went.  They have since posted a 20 page how to on the electric kit.  I wound up paying them 200 bucks in labor to install it for me I have several health issues that would not let me spend a lot of time on it.  Heck I was whipped anyway.  I am a 6' 220 guy and the motor will pull any hill in tigard that I have found anyway the more you pedal the more
 miles you can get I can comfortably travel to beaverton for instance the charging time  is 6 to 8 hours so I bought the 2nd battery as a back up.  anybody interested in this opec free project can come over and see it my phone is 503 384 8350.  I can't drive I am 64 with a bum leg bad heart and a few others such but not limeted to asthma so I find something that helps keep me in shape as well and get me places is well worth the 800 I have into it.  OH I also can get it in and out of the bus rack on trimet need help with the hook on the max
