Are there any available that make sense? or is battery shipping an issue?
thanks for the help!

You can, generally, purchase a kit with a battery. They, typically, ship separately and I think that has something to do with it being a battery. I ordered an BBSHD mid-dive system with a 52v battery. They arrived on the same day but two separate shipments. It's also possible that these batteries are being stored/shipped from a separate location for safety purposes. Not to mention that retailers would probably have to stor a lot of batteries and take precautions due the the Lithium Ion battery's and the potential for the extreme fires they can cause. -
I purchased a kit from Bafang Direct last month and it came with a battery included in the same box as motor and everything else.Comment

What about this one: https://igg.me/at/unlimitedebike
It seems like it includes the simplicity I am looking for and the price to boot. Do you see any major issues? this is their site: unlimitedev.com

While the price might look attractive, keep in mind that you will want the most power you can get and the largest battery aH and voltage they offer, which typically translates into a more expensive kit. Also, what you are looking at is a Crowdfunding campaign. From the looks of it, you wouldn't get your kit until at least November.Comment

true, thats 499 euros, still not bad for what I can find from shoddy dealers on Aliexpress. I think 350Wh is ok for my use (commuting). November is a bit far but I can at least still pedal until then!Comment

Yeah, I'm already pedaling anyway!
It looks good, I think I could back it for my old trusty Giant with 26" wheels, give it a breath of fresh air. A couple of buddies had the Swytch kit but the sensor was very buggy all the time, and installing the sensor is not for everyone. In my case, the Swytch sensor wouldn't work because of my crankset so finding out about this new option seems promising! Will dig in a bit more! Thanks!Comment
