350W ebike Conversion Kits

350W eBike conversion kits are the entry point to electric cycling — street-legal across all Canadian provinces, quiet, efficient, and perfectly suited to flat urban terrain and casual daily commuting.

Why choose a 350W conversion kit?

350W is universally legal for Canadian roads — permitted in all provinces under the federal power-assisted bicycle definition. It provides adequate assist for flat to moderately hilly terrain, delivers quiet operation, and is among the most efficient options for maximising battery range per charge.

What is included in a 350W conversion kit?

A complete 350W kit typically includes the hub motor wheel (front or rear), controller, display unit, pedal assist sensor, brake sensors, throttle (optional), and wiring harness. Batteries are usually sold separately. Browse our battery collection for compatible options.

Is a 350W kit enough for hills in BC?

On moderate BC hills (5–8% grade), a 350W motor provides noticeable assist but may require the rider to contribute meaningful pedal effort. For steeper climbs regularly, a 500W kit is recommended. For flat cities like Richmond or Burnaby, 350W is entirely sufficient.

How difficult is it to install a 350W conversion kit?

Installation requires basic mechanical competence — wheel removal, brake adjustment, and cable routing. ENVO kits are designed for DIY installation with included instructions. EBikeBC also offers installation services for those who prefer professional fitting.

Do 350W conversion kits qualify for BC's PST exemption?

Conversion kits sold as separate components do not typically qualify for the PST exemption (which applies to complete e-bikes). However, a complete bike fitted with a 350W kit and sold as a ready-to-ride e-bike does qualify where applicable.
