This idea won't work. Throttle ebikes are, with almost no exception, hub drive models. Hub drives have the motor in the hub vice at the crank (mid drive). Hub drives are far cheaper.

What you are effectively proposing is only those who ride $2,500 + bike can use this path.

What? You want to spend only 995.00 on a ebike? Sorry!
