Bafang. Depends what your uses for the bike are. A bafang 350with a 36v18ah battery should be powerful, but gentle enough on drivetrain to keep you rolling.
About £600 odd for battery and motor.

Swytch is shit. Underpowered, poorly
Engineered and messy wiring.

Thanks for the reply. Id be using it to assist with two decent hills on a 2 mile commute to work. Just to take the edge of and stop me being a sweaty mess by the time I get to work. Will Google the suggested though.

Cheers

Then Swytch might actually be what you need. I’m just not a fan of the ‘fit to anything’ ethos. Strikes me as reckless since not all forks are built equal, and even with the limited power output, it’s still outside of fork design parameters.
