I see the story has unfolded in my absence.. - was late/early - perhaps i was a bit grumpy and too short..
-fwiw in my case its a facebook login page, no window with an alt-f4 escape, perhaps you need an app or toolkit installed for the 'floating' login prompt??

This is what I get using Chrome on my Windows 11 laptop.

I guess all devices/browsers are different.

Nicely priced full susser here. £2800

It was never that rrp. The actual price originally was £4500, which is about right for this level, About a £1700 saving.

Downsides -

Brakes could be a much better spec at this price range, Shimano m520 or maybe SLX or even XT
Wheels are mediocre, but will do what you need them to

Overall, I'd say this is an excellent starting point for a good play/trail bike but don't want to be spending a fortune.
A few upgrades wouldn't hurt, namely the brakes but really thats about all. Fork is ideal Zeb(38mm) so it will pretty much handle anything.

Best ridden at night, or if wearing a disguise

Interesting pricing. I don't think Winstanleys are selling that bike at £2800 bcause they feel sorry for us. I reckon it's because nobody wanted to buy it at £4500, and they figured that their only chance to get rid of it is to try it at £2800. In my mind, that's still at least £1000 too much for any ebike, when you consider what you can get with a petrol motor in it.

I really cant see how you arrive at the figure you have.

Cheers @guerney, TLDR- I dont carry a mobile phone . Thanks for the info regardless

I usually avoid mobile devices for browsing unless necessary - what browser are you using on what OS?

That seller has a zero rating. Ask why it says "This product is a set of 3 silver motor sticker decals designed for E-Bikes, specifically compatible with Bafang 250w 36V BBS02B and BBS01 motors." for item description.

When I'm occasionally gripped by a fleeting irrational urge to muse about trying a hub conversion, I ask for exact make and model. I also ask if the motor has been marked "250W" by the manufacturer, and request photos of the markings.

I clicked on that Marketplace link, the bike is hardly used and he's currently asking for £190. I saw this on the same page, it would be a good purchase for Soundwave:
