Well, well! I had expected the verdict to be RUBBISH! I wondered at the price if it could be all bad but some things are expensive at any price.
I speak French - the stuff that people have said here re the spec (I hadn't looked at it myself) is as they say it is.
From the specs, the battery is an 8ah lead/ acid, 24v, the max load on the carrier is 10kg and overall for the bike 110kg. It will take 300 charging cycles and takes 7 to 8 hours to charge. Range is 30km - but in forums people seem to say that they expect more like 25km.
One person complains about the range - they live in Alpes-Maritimes! - that made me chuckle. The motor is described as 24v 250w brushless. The battery is removable and lockable.
Re the saddle, it says yes, you can replace it but it must have a tilting mechanism like the one fitted or you cannot get at the battery. They say that, to date, they have not found another one that will do this.
The locking battery, someone has complained that they could not find the keys to the battery lock. The reply is that the key and spares are firmly clipped in during packaging for despatch by the manufacturer and are specifically checked for their presence before sending out from the factory.
You will either have to find them or organise an exchange via the manufacturer since it cannot be an error by the shop. (The French are rather more robust in their dealings with one another than the English are).
Thanks for that Lemmy - thanks for the heads up in the first place and the french translations - very funny re living in in the mountains and complaining - ha ha ha.
Interesting to understand about french shops and how they work.
Pity, I rather liked the look of the lithium Roma, but an e-bike is not for looking at, its for riding.....sigh...
