How to convert my bike to electric?

Converting a traditional bicycle to an electric bike requires some technical knowledge and specific components. There are many kits available in the market that can convert a bike to electric. These conversion kits usually include a motor, a battery, a controller, and a display. To begin the conversion process, the first step is to remove the front or rear wheel and replace it with a hub motor with the appropriate wheel size. Then, you need to attach the battery and controller to the frame or the back rack of the bike, and connect all the wiring. Finally, mount the display, which shows you various modes and battery life. It is important to ensure that all the components you use are compatible with each other and your bike's specifications. If you are unsure or feel uncomfortable performing the conversion yourself, it is recommended that you seek the help of a professional bike mechanic.
