One of the reasons I'm writing this reply is that this thread is less about the bike, more about Chinese e-bikes and products in general. When I last visited China, that their bicycle market is completely different than ours. I saw streams of thousands of workers using them to commute to work, along with mopeds. I view this fat tire bike as a bicycle / moped - motorcycle crossover. The US market seems to have embraced various level high end, competition quality race bikes and mountain bikes. Because it's about converting every bit of energy into motion, every bit of weight matters, as does what expensive alloy is used. I think the Chinese bikes overcome these parameters because economy of scale have made lithium-powered motors so inexpensive there. The other issue is that where I live, bike theft is rampant. My bike locks cost $100-200, and they still get stolen. There is no downside to stealing bicycles in the United States, according to economists. So for actual commuting purposes, it makes no sense to buy an expensive bike.
A lot of what we pay for in the US is service, and it gets passed on to the consumer. If there's something significantly wrong, the bike shop the bike shop just raises the price of all their products so they still make a profit. So it took some time to put the bike together, to replace a couple of missing parts, and get a new charger. For some people, that would be unacceptable, and expect the warranty to cover all of that, but I'd rather just deal with it myself. I have bought several thousands of dollars of stuff on Ali express, and I've learned how to do business with Chinese companies. I know AliExpress won't release any of my money to the seller if I file a dispute within a certain timeframe. I know from previous interactions that if push comes to shove, there is this authoritative "system" in place that will look at all the data from the back and forth between the vender and I and make some sort of a judgment. It's very Chinese, and not the way we do things with BBB, FTC and credit card companies in the US. In anticipation of that, I've taken a picture of a voltmeter attached to the broken charger, showing that it is plugged in. Attached is a nice note saying how much I like the bike and would love to write a great review. I expect that it's all it's going to take to get a new charger within the next couple of days, so the bike dealer can get paid.
My last ebike lasted over 10 years, without the motor failing or the battery burning down my house, before it was stolen. You can do whatever you want with your money, but for me, I'm in full recognition that times are changing, and the US may never be able to make or fix certain things like economical e-bikes, and just categorically boycotting things emotionally is not a real solution.
I put her together this morning. Took about 45 min.
First of all… this thing is HUGE! If you're under 5'5" and less than a 30" inseam, this will be uncomfortable to ride and I'd look elsewhere.
Second… this thing is heavy. 65 lbs heavy… Weight weenies will scoff at the heft on this thing.
Saying that, once you're on and pedaling, the ride is surprisingly buttery smooth and doesn't feel nowhere near 65 lbs.
I tried PAS. Works well from mode 1 through 7… and full electric was a blast. I got up around 28 mph and it gets you there quick.
I'm impressed with this E-bike. I'm sure there's better ones out there… but for around 500 clams… I think I got a good deal. Hope reliability isn't an issue.
FYI
I'm one of those weight weenies. I have a Cannondale 17.5 lb road bike And 3 MTBs. 2 hard tails and a full suspension.
I give her an A so far.

For Fat people like me....so we don't bend the rims going over every crack in the pavement.
And MOST fat people have strong legs due to moving their weight...so extra weight and resistance aren't as bad for us.

There is a difference between 'support' and riding in reality. OBVIOUSLY, by your comment, you are not in the above 200 category. I am 6'3 250. Every metal spoked non-fat tire bike I have has bent rims from any use besides flat blacktop. The extra rubber + heavy duty nature of fat tire Rims prevent them from bending, and wobbling after the third ride.
Think about it dude, would a fat person (Or to clear your mind up, an ex football player like me) rather get a pedal racer... or a fat tire (Let it do half the work) ebike?
I do have question that maybe somebody can answer and it could be warning but I am not sure.
I have foldable fat tire with smaller wheels than this one and mountain bike style ebike. Just for kicks I tried fairly rough path and found the fat tire while good for bumps on the road, gravel and semi smooth dirt paths really failed at any moderately rough stuff the mountain bike would handle easily. Maybe it was the smaller wheel diameter but it would like to knock my teeth out and just bang into certain obstacles so bad I ended up breaking a pedal.
Maybe the larger wheel diameter changes that dynamic? From what I experienced I do not consider at least my fat tire in anyway good for rough terrain with roots, rocks or similar. I used to run regular ten speeds with street tires on worse and they did better.
Maybe someone else can say if this bike with larger wheels would help with that?
Yes, the smaller wheel is easier to jar throwing you off course. Ever taken a kids bike on trails. Omg. Its awful. Taller tires are stabil. But at the same time, theres a wider footprint for wide tires meaning more stuff to hit. And it takes more force to correct more mass that has steered off course. I think its mainly marketing. People see fat tires and think its more comfortable just like a big padded bike seat looks like its more comfortable....but once you ride a lot, is it? Not really. The only place i see fat tires is beach riding where its 100% needed if in soft dry sand.
