For the money it has too be one of the best buys in e bike world, the bpm hub is almost bullet proof may be every 1 - 2k miles or so just open it up and dob some more grease in if it gets a bit noisy and also every 1k check for any grinding noise from the side plate sealed bearing which is a quick 10 min or so replacement job.
Sweet, sounds like its a go-er then!

if you want a bosch bike and want no hassle warranty with a dongle then you can only buy them from ebike shop.

the bosch/yammah system is better than a hub drive but then you are paying the extra for it plus it will be like fly's to shite for thieves if it is left out side for any amount of time.

this is dongle vs no dongle and a 60s head start.

for me with a 500w batt its 30 miles tho i change modes and gears when i slow down and speed up and that would be on the flat.

you have to learn how fast you can go and how much effort you put in and what mode you like using as it will be different for everyone.

i had 2 bars left after that on the 500w batt
