Hello everyone. After seeing my friend’s purchase of his e-bike and seeing him enjoy it, I’ve decided to get myself one as well. One purchase of an e-bike would bring my daily commute down to the low low price of Free.99 outside of maintenance for the bike, and help me save tons of money.
I’m not interested in purely pedal assist bicycles since I’m interested in having fun with a thumb throttle. I have the license to register and ride any bike under 600w and do prefer to comfortably commute at the speeds they offer
I am aware of Super73 but I still don’t know if I want to dabble with them. There’s been recent videos about frame cracks and knockoffs that have me worried about quality in the long run. But if there are any brands in the Kanto area that sell similar bikes, I’m interested in your recommendations. I’m also cool with brands outside of Kanto that do nationwide delivery!
Secondhand is also A-OK if there’s keywords for Mercari or other websites I can find them on. My budget is about ¥200,000 and I would prefer 500w/600w bikes. Thanks!
