E-Bike Conversion Kit

Explore e-bike conversion kits for different bikes, riding styles and fitment needs. Start with the drive system that fits your bike, then compare products and check compatibility before ordering.

Front Wheel E-Bike Conversion Kits

The motor sits in the front wheel, leaving your chain, cassette and rear derailleur untouched. It works well for flat roads, gentle to moderate climbs and everyday commuting, while different battery systems and motor options are available depending on the platform.

Best suited to

Urban commuting, daily riding and flat to gently hilly roads.

Before you choose

Check your Front Dropout Width, Brake Type and Wheel Size.

Rear Wheel E-Bike Conversion Kits

The motor drives the rear wheel for a more natural rear-wheel feel and stronger traction on climbs or loose surfaces. Rear-hub conversions require closer checks because the motor must work with your existing cassette, derailleur, brake system and rear dropout.

Best suited to

Hills, mixed terrain, longer rides and riders who want stronger rear-wheel traction.

Before you choose

Check your Rear Dropout Width, Cassette Speeds, Brake Type and Wheel Size.

All-In-One E-Bike Conversion Kits

The motor, wheel and battery are integrated into one front-wheel unit. No separate battery pack needs to be mounted, and there are no spokes to build or retension after installation. It is a clean solution for riders who want a simple appearance and low wheel maintenance.

Best suited to

City riding, leisure riding and clean front-wheel builds with minimal wheel maintenance.

Before you choose

Check your Front Dropout Width, Brake Type and Wheel Size.

Friction Drive E-Bike Conversion Kits

A roller presses against the rear tyre, leaving your original wheels and drivetrain unchanged. This friction-drive setup provides a natural riding feel and suits commuting, longer rides and well-paved roads.

The battery is integrated into the unit, so no separate battery pack is required. Use it when you want electric assistance, switch it off when you want to ride without assistance, or remove the unit when you want to use your bicycle in its original configuration. In MOD mode, P.wheel can provide up to 50 km of range, making it suitable for longer rides and multimodal travel.

Best suited to

Longer rides on good roads, commuting, city-to-suburb travel and bike-plus-transit journeys.

Before you choose

Check your Bike Model, Seatpost Profile, Size & Clearance and Tire Width Range.

Thru-Axle E-Bike Conversion Kits

Modern disc-brake bikes often use thru-axle rear systems instead of traditional quick-release hubs. These conversion kits are built around specific rear axle standards and dropout widths, so compatibility must be checked before ordering.

Best suited to

Hills, mixed terrain, longer rides and riders who want stronger rear-wheel traction.

Before you choose

Check your Rear Dropout Width, Cassette Speeds, Brake Type and Wheel Size.

Brompton E-Bike Conversion Kits

Brompton bikes use a distinctive frame layout and narrow front dropout, so standard conversion kits may not fit or may interfere with the folding mechanism. These kits are designed specifically for compatible Brompton configurations. Check your Brompton model, front dropout width, brake type and wheel size before ordering.

Best suited to

Urban commuting, daily riding and flat to gently hilly roads.

Before you choose

More Conversion Options Coming

We’re preparing additional conversion systems and product categories for future release. New products will be added when they’re ready.

Mid-Drive Motor Kits

Coming in a future product release

We plan to add branded mid-drive conversion kits for riders who want a more centralised motor position and stronger climbing performance. Product details will be available when the range is ready.

Power-Tool Battery Conversion Kits

Planned for early 2027

We are preparing conversion kits designed around commonly available power-tool battery platforms, with a focus on everyday convenience and easier access to replacement batteries.

Disc-Brake Belt Drive

In development

This experimental concept uses a belt-driven system around the disc-brake area, with the aim of keeping the original wheel, chain and shifting system. The design is still being tested and does not have a confirmed release date.

Frequently asked questions

Which conversion kit fits my bike?

It depends on your wheel size, dropout width, brake type and drivetrain. Front-wheel kits usually require the front dropout width, brake type and wheel size. Rear-wheel kits also require the rear dropout width and cassette speed. Check the compatibility guide before ordering.

Should I choose a front hub or rear hub kit?

A front hub kit keeps the rear drivetrain untouched and is often easier to match with different cassette and derailleur setups. A rear hub kit can provide stronger rear-wheel traction and a more natural rear-wheel riding feel, but it requires more detailed drivetrain and dropout checks.

Does every conversion kit need a separate battery?

No. Battery configuration depends on the system. Some front and rear hub kits use a separate frame-mounted battery, while current all-in-one wheel systems and friction-drive units integrate the battery into the main unit.

Does a rear hub kit work with my cassette?

Not always. Rear hub compatibility depends on the dropout width, freehub or cassette standard and number of speeds. Check the individual product specifications before ordering.

What is the advantage of friction drive?

Friction drive keeps your original wheels, drivetrain and bicycle setup unchanged. You can install the unit when you want assistance, remove it when you want to ride normally, or switch it off when assistance is not needed. It is designed for longer rides on good roads, commuting and multimodal travel.

Can I use a conversion kit on a folding bike?

Some folding bikes are compatible, but not all. Folding frames use different dropout widths and folding layouts, so the specific bike model and measurements must be checked before ordering.

How far can I ride on one charge?

Range depends on the battery capacity, motor system, rider weight, terrain, assistance level, temperature and riding conditions. Always use the range information for the specific product as a guide rather than a guarantee.

Which system is better for hills?

Rear hub and future mid-drive systems are generally the more relevant options for riders who regularly deal with climbs. The right choice still depends on motor torque, battery capacity, rider weight, terrain and the bicycle’s compatibility.

Do I need to change my gears?

Front hub and friction-drive systems leave the rear drivetrain untouched. Rear hub and thru-axle rear systems require closer checks of the cassette, derailleur and dropout configuration.

Is a converted bike legal where I ride?

E-bike requirements vary by country and region. Check your local rules for permitted speed, motor power, throttle use, equipment and road access before riding.
