Global Electric Bike Kit Market Size Study & Forecast, by Component (Display, Controller, Battery, Motor, and Others), By Motor Type (Mid-drive Motor and Hub Motor), By Application (City Bikes, Mountain Bikes, and Cargo Bikes), By Sales Channel (OEM and Aftermarket), and Regional Analysis, 2023-2030
Global Electric Bike Kit Market is valued at approximately USD 47.78 billion in 2022 and is anticipated to grow with a healthy growth rate of more than 13.7% over the forecast period 2023-2030. An electric bike kit, or e-bike conversion kit, is a package containing essential components that can transform a regular bicycle into an electric bike. The kit typically includes a motor, battery, controller, and necessary wiring and mounting hardware. The motor, situated on the wheel hub or within the bike frame, assists in propulsion through pedaling or a throttle control. Electric bike conversion kits have become popular due to their affordability and eco-friendliness, offering a cost-effective way to transition from conventional bikes to electric ones amid global efforts to reduce carbon emissions. Advancements in battery technology, particularly high-capacity lithium-ion batteries, have enhanced the performance and range of e-bikes, making conversion kits more appealing. Electric bikes is an entry point for many individuals into the trend of electromobility, providing benefits such as pedal assistance, extended range, energy efficiency, and increased speed. The rising demand for environmentally friendly transportation options and government incentives and initiatives supporting electric mobility have driven technological advancements and innovation in electric bike kits are the most prominent factors that are propelling the market demand across the globe. Subsidies, tax credits, and infrastructure development initiatives further incentivize consumers to embrace sustainable transportation solutions, contributing to the expansion of the electric bike conversion kit market.
Additionally, rise in trend towards DIY E-Bike conversions, offering personalization, and affordability is further exhibiting a positive influence on the demand globally. Electric bike kits present a more budget-friendly alternative to purchasing a brand-new electric bike, making them an appealing option for cost-conscious consumers seeking the advantages of electric assistance without the higher price tag of pre-assembled e-bikes. Consequently, the burgeoning community of DIY enthusiasts and innovators within the cycling realm significantly contributes to the burgeoning electric bike kit industry's popularity and expansion. Online forums, communities, and resources serve as valuable platforms, offering support and guidance to individuals embarking on their electric bike conversion journey, further propelling market growth. In June 2023, GBoost unveiled the GBoost V8 kit, engineered for swift installation on any bicycle in just 10 minutes. Available in three distinct battery configurations, the electric bike conversion kit includes a compact 250-watt-hour battery pack at an affordable price of EUR 980, approximately equivalent to USD 1,048. Moreover, the rise in the inclination towards mobility solutions, as well as the increasing development in the E-bike related component technologies presents various lucrative opportunities over the forecasting years. However, the limited variety and customization options, along with the technical and installation complexity are hindering the market growth throughout the forecast period of 2023-2030.
The key regions considered for the Global Electric Bike Kit Market study include Asia Pacific, North America, Europe, Latin America, and Middle East & Africa. Asia Pacific dominated the market in 2022 owing to the increasing concern about environmental sustainability, rapid urbanization and growing traffic congestion, as well as rising government incentives and policies. Also, the growing investments from major players in emerging economies contributing to market expansion within the region.
