Great review! It convinced me to get one too. I noticed that the pedal assist gets you to 10,15,20,25,28 MPH and nothing between. So you’re under 100% your own power if you want to keep a speed at 13mph, for example. I’ve messed with the settings on the display but haven’t found a setting for more dynamic assist. Do you know anything about that?
Unfortunately the bike menu system seems to be really limited. It instantly peaks out in all of the pedal assist modes because the motor is so powerful, and there is no way to edit this that I'm aware of.
I do think it's worth it. At the price, it's great. As far as "holding up" it's also great, but keep in mind I've not had it long enough to give a really long term opinion. I have four bikes from Actbest, and they're all really well built, for what it's worth.
Ebike laws vary from state to state, but generally, no. No license or insurance is required to ride ebikes here in Ohio. Check your local ebike laws, but I'm not aware of any state that requires licensing or insurance for Ebikes. Also be aware that some bikes fall into "not technically class 1,2, or 3 ebike" categories based on motor output power, but whether or not those rules get enforced can come down to how foolish and brazen a rider chooses to be, and how much attention they draw to themselves.

Great review and looks like an awesome bike. 28mph on a bike is pretty quick IMO
it sure is. Any faster, and we're getting into motorcycle domain.
Great review on that big boy, fat fatty tires e bike Nice that you stressed how well brakes work an the power it has for hills.

@@LowDoughTech cool thanks for your input. I’ll probably hack it in the future and enjoy as is for the time being 😃
I am thinking about getting this bike. How is it holding up and do you think it’s worth it? Thanks
