    Best bang for buck sub £1000 folding ebike with Throttle!

    So do you mean if you let the motor do all the work you could infact damage the motor or even ruin it totaly? As for throttle I always thought that was more of a get me off the line quick gadget or help me start up a hill is my thinking correct on that?

    Yes but im on about the parts all coming from the same country maybe even the same factory so I guess like all things you pay for the name. Most Peugeot scooter are made in China on the same production line as bikes half the price but you pay for the name and the dealer back up.

    The green edge is full throttle and twelve months warranty and less than £600 so I guess parts are the cheaper make Then you get the kudos for £895 no throttle apart from walking throttle and I would guess they are made in China too.

    Why would she need to use the throttle so often? Are there many hills for her to go up?

    True say emo but it is only one plug a few cable ties and four screws holding the cover on its simple enough to do and the instructions are on this forum. Even if he took it to a bike shop still going to be cheaper than spending a grand

    It's a fantastic bike and with the warrenty and the fact the brand is not only well known but also the company as a whole has a great reputation means the purchase price isn't as bad as it first looks. They say you get what you pay for and for the price you are getting a bargain.
