conversion kit

Been browsing around on e-bike conversion kit, seems like some semi decent kit only only around 500-700usd , rear wheel hub motor + battery.

Anyone has good experience converting let's say a gravel to a rear wheel e-bike kit?

i dont, but would point you to johnny nerd out on youtube.
The future is ebikes for girlfriends and weaker friends to tag along, or for long Z2 rides, but still havent found what i'm looking for.
Fast on the flat. And nowhere else.

Depends. For Thru Axle there is quite difficult to find a hub motor. What do you need? I converted a lot of bikes to ebikes (hub and mid motor).

Like Serge_K, I have not found many E-bike retrofit kit offerings through Aliexpress.   I am getting older every year, and keep riding analog bikes.    The last good thread that included a sub discussion discussion on a BB retrofitted motor was in this thread about the Lexon Spirit FS frame.  (Go to the 5th page, post #65)

I was thinking of going down this path back when this thread was active, then forgot about it.
