It's a little sad that we need to actually say this, but:
Don't be an asshole or you will be permanently banned.
Respectful debate is totally OK, criticizing a product is fine, but being verbally abusive will not be tolerated.
Focus on discussing the idea, not attacking the person.

Yeah, if I was going to convert a bike I think I'd stick with a traditional mid drive or hub conversion kit.
Front hub conversions in particular are very easy to do and produce reliable, efficient and nice to ride bikes. Bafang even has a plug-n-play set of controllers and torque sensing bottom brackets that can do proper torque assist. I'm using one of their BBs with my current non-Bafang setup and it's spectacular. It makes riding my bike pure joy. ๐
I'm currently using a light read hub, but if I was building a new bike, I'd go with a light front hub on a steel fork. The total weight would be down even after adding the extra weight of the fork and the rear drivetrain can stay stock.
