Some frame bargains currently on Alpkit(ebay) Full suss. Possibly suitable for mid drive conversion kits.
Unfortunately XL only.

It's another of those cases, like the recent CRC bargains, of frames reduced to the point the shock retail price itself is near the price of the entire deal, effectively making the frame a freebee

Short travel 120mm -£299(£284 with coupon)

Mid travel 140mm -£299(£284 with coupon)

On the link above - Every bike with dozens of reviews are 5 star with a smattering of 4 stars(no 3's,2's or 1), though none of them actually critical, and all singing the praises.
When has any product ever received only maximum ratings ? Even high end stuff has a fair mix of good and bad ratings.

If a fat bike is your thing, at £419 for a 48v 13ah 62Nm that's a cracking deal. Remove the throttle to go street legal

Wow. That's the cheapest brand new ebike with those features I have ever seen.

Was VAT added at checkout?

How many ebikes do you have now?

Does the seller releases cashback after the return period expires, or did you get it immediately? I very much like the sound of getting cash back. Could sound noisy if it's a lot of cash.

:D:D Nope I haven't bought one, just posting it here as a bargain for someone as a cheapo introduction into ebiking.

I've got far to many ebikes already, so not planning on any more, my problem is I can't resist a bargain, and find obscure scenarios where each one would be useful, but in reality only two get plenty of use (BBS01 conversions - touring hybrid/commuter and MTB conversion (off road fun))

Aliexpress isnt always the most trusted source for stuff.
Spotted the other day a Festool Kapex 120 which was listed new at £232

That slide mitre saw retails at about £1400

Chances of it arriving ZERO. Chances of getting your money back -Extremely difficult I'd imagine.

I consider it a very trusted source - against each store it lists the number of regular buyers, how old the store is, how many orders in the last 180 days, as well as the store rating and customer reviews.

In the one case I know where @saneagle bought an obvious fake, he got his money back

I find Aliexpress to be extremely reliable. I buy a few items every month. I recently bought a 15KWh £2000 power station that works perfectly. My last order was about £30 for a cat electric blanket, spy camera, bottle holder and bracket that came in about a week, and I have one of those dual battery parallel connectors on its way. The one idem that I got that was fake, I knew was fake before I ordered it. I was just curious to see what I'd get, like when you see an iPhone 14 for £20.

If there's any delay in the delivery, even when it's not their fault, like customs delay, you get a partial refund. They also monitor progress to check delivery, and if stuff isn't delivered in a reasonable time, you get a full refund automatically - no need to make a claim.
