Couple of things. Rear rack would carry those batteries and you could zip tie the cables along the frame. Lots of companies make custom frame bags that you could put the batteries in along with some gear. Revelate Designs Ranger bag, Bedrock Bags. Rogue Panda, Defiant, all make quality gear that would serve dual purpose.Sure. Look for the bafang 750watt kit on ebay (i waited for a 15%off coupon). Got it for under $400 i think. The batteries were $110 apiece off hobby king (i got four but run 2 at a time. Youll need two splitters to run two at a time (bout $6 each on ebay). My 4 port charger was about $225.
We made a battery box to sit inside the frame with some 1/4" plastic sheeting. Heat welded and screwed together. Need to leave a hole on the bottom side for the battery cables to come out.
The kit is easy to install, just remove bottom bracket and replace with motor/crank assembly. The hardest part was making the box as it is a custon fit all the way. My soldering iron wasnt good enough for the large battery cables but i hear that RC hobby stores will weld the adapter plugs on for you for a small fee. The box can be skipped though if you decide to carry the batteries in a backpack and run a wire down to the motor (this seems like an accident waiting to happen though).
I never looked into how to post pics on here, but i can text some to you if that helps.
Got a bird this year by silently cruising and calling on a forest road. If i was in the truck i wouldnt have heard them at all and or bumped them. Ive done this same thing on a plain old mtn bike for more years than i care to count, but its way more fun and relaxing on the e-bike. Its a good tool to add to the box.
Best of luck
