Harley Davidsons for a start.Nothing wrong with belts....even some large engined motorbikes are driven by them....as are the vast majority of engine camshaft.
They will far outlast a chain with no regular adjustment or lubrication needed.
...............(and where can you get a crank motor eBike for under £1500), ...........

My brother just bought one for his wife.She loves it and will probably buy a 2nd .Not cheap at about £1000 .
Not only no gears but also belt driven so no chain. We looked seriously at them but decided to stick with pedal power for now when ready for electric bike is a great contender for us.

It would be interesting to hear from anybody who actually has a Gtech, I have ridden something similar albeit with a 24v 200watt motor, single speed with a chain, so less powerful but it was lighter than the Gtech, useful range was only about 18/20 miles and it was certainly not the best hill climber in the world but how many people actually need a bike that has a range of more than 20 miles or so? The bike I rode was fun but I didn't think it was a viable option for hilly rides.
So where the Gtech is concerned it is the hill climbing that intrigues me and I would love to hear from somebody who has actually ridden one. I am told that Gtech have sold over 5,000 bikes since their launch, surely somebody must have ridden one.
Don't dismiss it because it costs £1000, there are lots of extremely good £1000 eBikes out there and the Gtech might be one of them.

E-bikes tend to have their own certificated chargers, best and often only way is to fit an inverter so you can use the mains charger.We are trying to wade through the ebike range with a max budget of £1000 each. Definitely considering the gtec.
The question is, as we seldom use sites with electric, how to charge them. Currently we have one 100w solar panel that keeps two batteries charged up nicely. Is there a simple way of integrating charging the bike batteries. Simple answers please, I consider myself slightly technically challe
