Thank you.
Cost:
Bike~$125.00
Conversion kit from e-bikekit+shipping=$546.94
Ping 36V,20Ah LiFePO4 battery+shipping=$579.00
Total=$1,250.94
There are other items I haven't included, like polycarbonate fenders(aprox.$40.00), grips, lock, lights, etc. because I didn't keep track. Actual total is probably near $1,400.00.
Performance: a touch over 20mph, I've seen 22 on the speedo during my short first run on level pavement. I haven't checked range yet, but hope to go around 25+ miles WOT on a charge with the mostly flat terrain around here and no pedalling. Acceleration is only slightly slower than my 1.6hp gas engined bikes.
