    Took the plunge and now bought my first e-bike!!

    I've received them this morning, super fast delivery, i'm impressed. It was very tough to get the pedals on and yep i'm aware that there is a left and right pedal with opposing threads, as i had no grease on hand, it was a lot harder than what should've been a simple task.
