wheels charger Inexpensive Rigid Geared MTB?

I'm thinking of giving the electric bike thing a go. Since I last checked speeds have gotten well above what's legal, and when geared to top out around 25 (for legalities sake) steep hills are no issue, and range of 50 miles is common. To boot, the batteries (LiFePO4) are now small and light enough to carry an extra without too much discomfort. I'm thinking hard panniers for the batteries and controller and a rear hub motor (so the panniers hide the electric hub, at least at a glance). This would allow me to commute to work without getting all sweaty, in a reasonable amount of time (commute is around 40 miles each way) and still get my exercize on the way home. I was (and still am) considering my Motobecane Outcast 29er as a donor bike. Thing is, I'd need to add a rear derailler, shifters, a much larger chain ring up front (if not a triple) and I'd be losing the Outcast for it's purpose. Sicne I like that bike, I'm considering an inexpensive rigid MTB with a normal range of gears for a donor. I'm OK with Bikes Direct, Nashbar, etc. I have the abilty to take them from the box to properly functioning bikes. Problem is, everything I'm finding has suspension. I don't want the added weight and poor function of a cheap suspension fork, and don't want to buy a nice one. 80% will be on-road anyway, and I ride rigid quite a bit off-road, so I'm pretty set on the rigid thing. Any suggestions? Why not a hybrid . You should be able to find something cheap, with no suspension, able to add racks and take decent width tires. Since you mentioned bikesdirect, something like: http://www.bikesdirect.com/products/motobecane/motobecane_elite.htm Most of the major brands make something similar. Later, Mark Muller- Hide quoted text - - Show quoted text - I considered that, but I just don't like the look, or the feel. The more I look around the more I'm tempted to use my moto outcast 29er as the donor. I'm running out of room for bikes anyway, I've already got 6 I use and too many other parts lying around.

Chevrolet Cruze
Cruz was built on the new "global" platform designed, inter alia, with a view to the next incarnation Opel ASTRA. The car was created based on a concept of global design. Similar treatment was applied once, with varying results, Ford's group. At a press conference the head of Chevrolet design wpajał journalists that the line is full of new cruz nawiązaniami to direct cars with bodywork type coupe. Although he does not convince us, but you have to admit that the silhouette can not be accused of anything - a car can be like.
