E-bike conversion kits. Anyone tried them?

    Hi folks,

    I have an 8 year old Specialized Sirrus, which I occasionally use for my 10km daily commute. I'd use the bike daily if it weren't for the long fecker of a climb I have on the way home from work :-)

    Rather than sell a perfectly good bike and go with an ebike/pedelec, I'm considering kitting the bike out with a conversion kit. I see that there are a few Irish suppliers including Kenbay and GoEco. Prices aren't bad compared to those for ebikes, but I'd like to hear from someone else who has gone the conversion kit route.

    Has anyone got any experience with these kits? Are they cheap Chinese imports, or are they quality components?

    Many thanks!

    Cheers,

    Wibbler.
