Electric bicycles can be a clean and green method of transportation, and building your own ebike is not only possible, but is also affordable.  An electric bicycle offers some advantages over a standard bicycle, including speed and convenience, and require significantly less effort to get from one place to another. However, before you lay out a big chunk of cash on a readymade ebike, consider doing a DIY electric bike conversion.
