I only did a search for kits. If you already have a bike you like, a kit would be the way to go. This page has a link to a video of one (they're selling them) with a hub motor like ATR mentioned.
E-BikeKit: Media E-Bike Conversion Kit
The whole thing is basically hooking up wires, some light assembly and replacing the front tire. ->IF<- it were me, I would go with something like that provided I was happy with my existing bike.
I don't know how a hub motor works so I couldn't build one. The one I would build would probably chew the rubber off the tires.
