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.

330 lb is the MINIMUM is can support for 2.5inch tire.
Say 200 lb rider + 70 lb bike + 60 lb cargo = 330.
Even if you carry 100 lbs of cargo, I am sure it'll be fine.

If you are talking about ebike you have that have decent parts, then all the more reason for it to be able to hold 330lb+ on 2.5inch tires. But it's your own bike, so you do whatever you want.
I and others would rather see a 2.5inch tire on these cheap bikes than a 4 inch fat tire. B/c let's be real, using a 2.5inch would mean they can use a bit higher quality material than 4 inch,, if cost is to stay the same.

But fat bikes tend to get more punctures from debris on the road. More contact surface = more chance to run over sharp object.
I'lve gotten several punctures on 2.5inch tire in about 100 miles. I have NEVER had a puncture on 25mm wide roadbike.

The tires are cheap crap and fall apart. The fenders are plastic junk. The brakes need regular adjustment. One guy said he had to do that on each ride. The motor isn't 1500, IIRC it's 400-500 with a surge capability of .003 seconds. The battery doesn't meet the specs either, falls off regularly (where they send you the "updated one" that does. "If you don't notice, we made extra profit. If you do, we'll say it was an error and send you what you bought.
Uncomfortable seat, Weird rusty welds made by a rabid squirrel. Hard and time consuming to assemble. One guy took 3 hours and needed a nap. And whatever you do, don't charge it indoors.

I am starting to wonder if those that tell us not to get these get a tinge of envy when they see me out having the same fun they are with significantly less cost. It might just be a class thing also as what used to be the privilege, playground and realm of the rich is opened up to those that may not be as privileged with dollars.
