Bought in November and now have put just under 600 miles on the bike. it has the Yamaha pw se 70 nm motor and 500w in tube battery.
issues were
no battery in display causing the clock to reset when switching off.
Battery lock on frame defective.
Both of these sorted by the shop.
What's gone wrong since
Nothing
I've retro fitted a suspension seat post, t bar handle bar grips, adjustable handle bar stem and an old gits saddle.
The grips fitted were fine but wanted the flat type with the horns to give a better riding position.
The saddle was of good quality but I needed a fatter one which still isn't good enough lol.
adjustable handle bar stem brought me in a more upright riding position.
I needed the suspension seat post which works a treat.
The motor noise is more than a friends bosch motor. The Yamaha pw x motor is noisy aswell.
It has been a good bike, comfortable to ride now with the upgrades, the motor has more than enough power, the battery seems to hold up quite well with its predictive range from 35-86 miles depending of terrain, if hilly that reduces to about 35-50miles. This range is based on the mileage and battery used not computer predicted which always seems more than optimistic.
Brakes are adequate and will stop no problems, pads still have loads of life left.
No rattles, squeaks or thumps when riding.
Not tried the lights at night.
Tyres are ok with still good tread left.
The lights need to have a function to allow the rear light to flash when day riding.
I hope this is of help to anyone looking to buy one of these bikes
