For the price, these ebikes from Cybervelo are actually not bad. Setup took about an hour for both and if you have any mechanical intuition it's not hard. My only gripe was that the battery was rattling when riding over bumpy terrain, which got kind of annoying. A fix to this is if you loosen the battery rail and slide it up so it engages tighter with the battery. As far as speed goes, it's plenty fast for any trails or bike paths. I got about 32mph in highest mode while pedaling. I would say the battery life will get you about 25 miles on a charge with mostly throttle. The pedal assist has a slight delay after you start pedaling so it's usually easier to throttle to get going, then continuously pedal. Overall, pretty good power and performance.
Update after 4 months: the brakes squeak and there is a little crunching noise in the shifting. Might just need some adjusting after breaking it in. Also, the crank came loose after about 20 miles. So use loctite when installing. Overall, I would still recommend. My parents love them for taking camping and riding around the campground. They even have a little basket for our small dog. She loves it!
