    A Moma 26 is a pretty good ebike with 70km range, you can pick one up brand new for 1K. OP is possibly a bike snob ;)

    You can also convert a normal bike for less than €500, and it’s incredibly easy

        Front wheel drive. Change the front wheel for an electric one, it’s the same as fitting a normal wheel, takes less than 30 seconds.

        The controller box is hung in a bag, anywhere on the frame.

        The batteries come in multiple fitting types; frame, seatpost, luggage rack

        The rest is cable ties

        I’ve done one in less than an hour, but to do it tidily takes about 4
