Ok So my kit came today, Its AWESOME!!!!! It took me a little longer than the video to install but mainly because the battery wouldn't fit neatly under my seat...so a bit of rigging later it was ready to go, While my daughter was napping I took it for a little spin on the flat, came back to check on her, then down the hill. I don't know how much charge it comes with but the red light was on...It powered me up the hill no problem, I actually felt a bit guilty at the lack of pedalling. Whatever. After she woke up and I took her for a small hill ride in her burley, I still had to pedal but it made a huffing a puffing hill into a "flat" feeling ride. The whole thing does make the bike heavier but i did find that hitting the button to get up to speed sort of negates that. So I'm Stoked, Can't wait to see the green light, take it for a real long hill, and of course make the battery look a bit better than it's current "i think it will stay" setup.
