Assist system recommendation
I want to set up my mother in law with a power-assist upright trike, either with an add-on kit or an OEM trike.
Last I paid any attention, BionX was the assist (not throttle-driven) system of choice. But it appears that they have gone out of business and new kits are not available. Do you guys have recommendations for a system that would detect torque (or whatever it was BionX did) and give you juice? ...preferably kits but brands that might appear OEM on e-bike trikes would be good too.
Also last I paid attention, motor kits could be sketchy in terms of quality. Maybe new products now are pretty good and I needn't worry, but this is why I ask. Thanks.
