  1. Hello,

    I recently bought an Avanti Giro, and I am trying to convert it to electric. I am looking for a front wheel which I can simply install, and the currently wheel size that I have is 622x17. I am relatively new to biking, so I am not sure what that means or what to look for.

    Thank you

    You’d need the 700C wheel size.
    Although I’m not sure putting a motorized front wheel in a road bike is such a sensible move. They push a lot of torque through the axle, which must be bolted in double-tight. Also, contact the seller and ask about rim width. Verify that your fork is wide enough at the top.

  3. put in at least one kilowatt !and more is better just!
