Does anyone have any reviews on this bike apart from the various customer reviews?
Thanks.
I had a falcon spark, good when it worked but I had a lot of issues. Loose spokes out of the box that later started breaking. Poor waterproofing of the controller box, water gets in and messes with the motor signal. But the biggest problem was with the fuse in the battery. The holder gets loose over time and eventually starts sparking, melting the wiring and the casing rather than blowing the fuse. Very dangerous. If you want something cheap my partner has a "xiongying" city bike off Amazon and it's been pretty reliable. The wheels suffered the same loose spoke issue so maybe get them retensioned properly by a shop and they should last a long time. This bike only cost 460 at the timecame with lights mudguards rack the lot, it's a steal. https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/TDL6162-Modern-City-Ebike-Electric-Bike-36V-10AH-LithiumBattery-motor-High-Power-/263418899282
