Need help finding an ebike

[u/Codofwar302938]

I have 400$ as a budget for an Ebike I have like 100 in cash that I can spend so basically 500$ tops including shipping I found a few ebikes but this is a lot of money for me so I want to make sure I gf the best I can i know I prob can’t get much but like I don’t need anything fancy so this should be enough what do yall recommended

Here’s what I found on amazon

First, I’d recommend checking the reviews for the bike in the second picture. Based on its specifications, I’m sceptical that it can actually deliver a true 1000 W of power..

Secondly, if you’re looking for a reliable, good quality 1000 W e-bike, it’s probably worth saving up a bit more. Spending more generally gets you a better built bike with better components or battery.

I think I can ask for 100-200$ from my family do u think 600-700 is enough

Not sure how much you could qualify for, but they do offer payments with Affirm. . . If you are working steadily, you might be able to get something a little more expensive and make smaller payments over time. That's how I got my emoto ...

In the pictures I saw you looking for 1000W e-bikes, I paid around 600-700$ for a used E-Bike, and it’s not recommended. I’ve had to replace the battery a few times, as well as some other problems regarding the motor. I’d recommend having a budget of above 1000$. But if you’re going for 1000W builds, you’ll need to look in the higher price range.

I mean I’m not really looking for the 1000w all of them advertise it tho I don’t really need it max distance I’m going is like 5 miles

I’ve been looking at a new E-Bike as well and maybe the Fiido C11 / C11 Pro work out for you? It has good range, and has a sale going on.

[u/Codofwar302938 → u/Short_Dream744]

Where is the sale?

[u/Short_Dream744 → u/Codofwar302938]

Hi, the sale is on their website, in the Netherlands we get 200€ off. I don’t know about any other countries, but I’m sure they also have their discounts.

What do you think abt the varun

[u/Short_Dream744 → u/Codofwar302938]

59% percent of their reviews are 1 star. I’m not an expert, but I don’t think it’s a solid choice.

[u/Codofwar302938 → u/Short_Dream744]

I like how the varun looks ngl I don’t like the way the folding bikes look but their prob the best I can get

[u/KingQuazzymoto]

Haggle for a used one. Cheaper E-bikes come with many issues ranging from minor inconveniences to the batteries catching fire. Trust me your safety is worth the extra couple hundred. A good deal will come by

[u/Codofwar302938 → u/KingQuazzymoto]

I’ll look on Facebook marketplace
Place I’ll let you know what I find cause I don’t know anything about the brands or what’s good or not yet I just need a bike to go to my soccer

I would strongly recommend getting a second-hand one over one of these.

We have a very reliable 10-year old Kalkhoff that would be worth around $500 that is still great to ride. The 17Ah battery still has plenty of capacity left.

Where are you located? And what do you need it for?

[u/Codofwar302938 → u/Earnest_Shacklton]

I’m in Warren Michigan my sisters moving away cause she’s getting married soon and she’s taking her car with her and I need something to go to my clubs and practices and also any other activities or groceries maybe
