You will go through the process of actually converting a bike. In addition, the class teaches bike safety, bike laws and basic maintenance and tips for doing your own conversion.

There have since been many new developments in electric bicycles. There are so many choices for potential owners that it's easy to get overwhelmed. Do you want to buy a purpose-built bike, install a conversion kit, or build the whole thing from scratch? What about motor, batter, and power controller selection?
