Cheap e-bikes are tempting because the promise is obvious: easier movement for less money. The part worth slowing down for is ownership after the first week.
Ask about the battery chemistry, replacement cost, brake quality, tyre size, charger warranty, and whether a local repair shop can actually get parts. Those boring details decide whether the bike stays useful.
The best budget buy is not always the cheapest one. It is the one with a battery and support story you can believe.
