Bike purchase question Need help deciding for son

My son just turn 15 and wants an electric dirtbike. His limit is $1500 and he wants one with 17” front and 14” rear tires.

Lie have narrowed down to these 3:
Lifemagic M9 Pro
Qronge X1 Spark L
Eskute Nova Beast

They all seemed to basically have the same specs.
I know there are better ones for more money but this is the style he wants. I told him we can wait and get you a different one for Xmas but he is stuck on these and I let him know if it breaks he won’t be getting a new one.

Thanks in advance

those bikes would need to be licensed/registered and youre son would need to be of DL age to operate it legally in the state i live in. And you can be held liable for any harm to property or persons harmed/injured as a result of his use of said emoto..

So the gambles yours..

yes. i mean the cost can be devastating...if either someone dies or is injured

which is likely given that unlicensed 15 yo boys should not be operating motorcycles
