Notes on Cost comparing of EBikes: Keep in mind when choosing by cost, you don’t always get what you pay for with other manufacturers. Our E-Bikes tend to come with racks, fenders and lamps all installed and included in the cost. We do not make you incrementally upgrade parts that will increase your final cost? Compare For example the rear derailleur Shimano Tourney vs Shimano Altus (1 grade higher) or Shimano Acera (2 grades higher than Shimano Tourney) or Shimano Alivio (3 grades higher to Shimano Tourney). We tend to use the better graded parts for the cost or less.
