The conversions come up every now and then on ebay, and Big Dummys come up every now and then second hand. But full xtracycles don't really, which is a shame, as they have some brilliant thinking.
Thanks for the offer, sadly you're quite far from me!
I've thought about a Bafang mid-drive motor conversion but then got scared off when I saw how many then require extra TLC in keeping them running. Still fancy a doing a conversion at some point, just need to find the time to do it. I'm also not sure i'll ride the bike any more, unless I commute to work on it!
So far I'm a big fan of the Big Dummy, has saved a good few local car journeys and has made those quick trips easier as I can park right outside the shop/place
