Which is better - brushed or brush-less motor on an electric bike?

I'm looking for the best ebike kit. Is it better to have a brushed motor or brush-less motor? Thankyou

Definitely go for a brushless motor. Brushless motors are the standard for ebikes these days. Brushes wear out so you don't want to have to keep on replacing brushes all the time.
