    Does your friend have a cheap e-bike?

      Not really. It’s one of the trek ones. Fuel if I had to guess off memory and looking at pics.

        They look indeed hard to service. Way too many screws, hidden cables, and propriety parts.

        I’m currently looking for a non e-bike as my 2nd runner, and I compared their mountain ebikes with the treks and they look so much cleaner and easier to service.

          I have a RadPower bike. It seems to be pretty straightforward to repair the normal bike parts. Not sure how I would replace the motor when it goes though.

      Cheap E-Bikes seem more easy if you are willing to get into the wiring. A lot of them use very similar parts in terms of Hub Motor, Controller, Battery
