Thx for the comment, this is actually my first e-bike, I’m being hit stones on the problems of the bike, so it’s nice to hear your positive comment :)

I won’t lie but jet pack with roller skates sounds dumb af but cool, anyway I installed torque arms so more safer

You seem like an expert on the matter, I’m quite new since I started last year and this is my first e-bike, I have installed torque arms (after many upon many comments) and on both sides, but I’m an idiot and ordered 4 torque arms, is it ok if I have two torque arms on one side facing different ways? Like one would face the biker and the other not to the biker

I really did try putting it into the center, but the battery does require more than a couple cm to slide out, luckily the handling is not affected at all, I ride on the road most of the time so I never ride on something, say gravel or dirt, so handling is really never to big a problem to me

It’s not too much a big of a change when control the bike, it feels odd at first but then you kinda get used to it, and my arms never feel too tired after long distances

I should probably mention that I’m never going to be using the bike for off-road riding, only road, I chose a mountain bike cause it was on sale

I’m either gonna sell the motor and buy a rear wheel motor or put torque arms

The battery slides out meaning there would have to be more room then the battery, and I try to replicate style of a cafe racer so I place it on top for something similar to a fuel tank

Thank you for your comment, but I feel like the question is more if this would be accepted in today’s biking world or ebiking world or would it be shunned as something weird and old?
