I’m looking to buy four class-1 ebikes; two for my partner and I, and two for my older teenagers.
I want to make sure they’re class-1 (or lockable to class-1) to maximize where we can use them. Even if enforcement is rare, I don’t like the worry of bending or breaking rules.
We mostly do forest trails, but some road and ORV trails.
Budget = $2k per ebike
When I search around it’s all name brands I don’t recognize and I don’t trust most random reviews even in reddit. Thanks for your advice fellow lemmings.
It looks like you’ve done some research but I strongly urge you to get some experience before you buy…especially when buying 4 bikes. Rent or borrow a bike or multiple bikes. See what you care about and what you don’t. See what needs to be sturdy and what doesn’t. Let your family ride them too, what’s important to me might not matter to my spouse.
That’s really good advice. Thank you!
