    warranties

    just wondering what peoples opinions are on warranties for e-bikes some manufacturers only offer 1 year on everything whilst others offer 2 years on the battery and considerably longer on frames etc. is this a reflection of the quality of the bike?

    cyclotricity stealth

    thanks for the replies on this another option for myself may be the ansmann which are advertised as 250 watt but with higher torque. looking at the hub motor it does appear larger than normal. does this mean that it has significantly higher hill climbing ability?
