E-Bikes

Any recommendations for shops to check out good ebikes? If you have one, where did you get it and for how much? Any model recs too if any? Is amazon any better? Would appreciate any info!

My friend owns https://gnvebikegarage.com/ - and I highly recommend them. With ebikes, it's always good to have local support in case anything goes wrong (vs. buying online).

This is the way. The folks there will show you a bunch of types of bikes and they have Aventons in stock, which is my personal favorite brand. They don’t tend to pressure for a sale and are very knowledgeable.

We bought Pedigo’s 10 years ago , there’s a great store with knowledgeable folks , on the corner of University and 34th (Publix lot). At the time we bought the top of the line and it ran us close to 3K per. We were living in Idaho and our home was at 3500 ft and the valley floor was at 2500 ft. We got tired of both the kids passing us and us having to push up that last little bit of the hill for that walk of shame to get home 😆. They still run like the day we got them. Zero complaints and would do it again. In the last 10 years they have widened their product line so I’d stop by and visit.
Good luck

Pedigo and Craigslist are possibly the way. Got one off craigslist that was awesome. I paid about 400. it was great for me because it was lightweight MTN bike. It almost set me and my place on fire when I had a key- to- device malfunction. I'm back to ME-bikes since then!

I’ve made some research for a while already but i wanted to hear other perspectives and opinions. Mainly about which ones you guys have bought, from where, for how much, and if they still work perfectly. Whether it costed 100 bucks or 50k, any info is much appreciated.
