The first bike arrived damaged and unusable. They refused to honor their return policy, insisting that I either repair it myself (they sent me a link to a YouTube video wtf) or bring it to a mechanic at my own risk. Suffice to say, I opened a credit card dispute and am still fighting to retain my credit.
The second bike hadn't been shipped when the issues with the first began, so I requested a cancellation, which they confirmed. Then they shipped it anyway. I refused the delivery. It arrived at their facility 2 weeks ago and I still haven't received a refund. Another dispute was opened and I'm having to deal with that now.
Edit: just checked and the first dispute was finally resolved in my favor just this morning. Now on to the second dispute…
I ordered one of the Able bikes in the last deal. About three weeks went by between the time of the order and when I realized I hadn't received the bike. Meanwhile, they spammed the heck out of my email account with other "promotions". I emailed the general customer service email address demanding they provide me an update. No response. About another week goes by and I get a "your order shipped" email notification. Great! Fantastic! Except that a few hours after receiving that email, I got a retraction saying they had made a mistake and my order hadn't shipped.
I emailed them to demand cancellation of the order based on the long wait and my spidey senses telling me something was off. I actually got a response within a few hours that acknowledged my request and told me the order would be cancelled. Guess what? The next day, Mendham shipped the bike. Geez. When I got the shipment notification, I started checking the tracking and noticed it took them more than a day to actually ship the bike (they just issued tracking by creating a shipping label). In the interim, I again emailed them about cancellation and warned them not to ship. No response. The bike arrived and box and interior parts were beat to hell. I put in a dispute with my credit card company, who immediately issued a confirmation of successful dispute, a sign they know what Mendham is up to. I tried several more times to demand they take the bike back. They finally responded on the third email and asked for a huge list of items. I took the bike to a charity that fixes up bikes and gives to kids in need. I'll just rely on my CC underwriter.
Please save yourself from the same headaches and from having to write an equally painful testimonial on SD by just skipping this "deal". It's not a deal and if you research online, you find the bikes are junk anyways.

Probably worth taking the savings and putting a cheap suspension fork and seat post on it.

Most mid drives don't have throttles. You need to pedal to engage the motor.
I did notice that it has 80nm of torque. That's very respectable. My eMTB also has 80nm and it climbs like a mountain goat. I can climb mountain trails that I never could without assist.
edit: I went to the manufacturer's site. No throttle.

You might be able to get parts from Bafang to add a throttle? Luna mid-drive bikes have them.

Being mid drive, its a real step up from hub drive for balance and response if you want a bike with assist for tough hills or long rides. If you want a scooter or run via throttle primarily, look elsewhere at a hub drive.
Id be in for this if I didn't already get the Yamaha clearance SD a few months ago at $1200. This is even better, even if the bike is lower grade this can easily be upgraded over time,

I have a Hyper full-suspension eMTB. It's the lowest price mid drive MTB that I could find. And it's been fantastic.(not comparing it to $5k bikes). And service, from those that have needed it, has been good. Parts and extra batteries are cheap ($200 for a spare battery).
I paid $1298 on sale.
Amazon has them for $999.99 right now. Last fall Walmart had them for $799. I almost bought a spare bike at that price and probably should have. lol
