Instructions

- 1
  Search to find a fair price for your electric bicycle conversion kit. An environmentally friendly life does not need to cost a fortune.

- 6
  Hang the quick release clamp to your bicycle handlebar.

  Feel the mechanical brake work through your current front brake to stop the electric wheel on the front of your converted bicycle.
