Are swagtron ebikes any good?
 

Does anyone here own one of these swagtron ebikes (swagtron eb5 or swagtron eb7 )?
Just wanted to get some opinions on it from people who have owned one. I was looking at these ones for the price point and the compact size.

Best Foldable Electric Commuter Bike | Best Folding Electric Bike

The train station near my house is closing down for 18months for a major upgrade soon.
I commute to work at the moment (around 28km each way) on my push bike, but i find that after 2-3 days i am
pretty tired. I usually ride day on, day off and catch the train on other days.

The Bike:
- It has to be foldable as i don't have anymore room at home to store another bike.
- I also want the option to take the bike onto a train at another station if i want to. So again size matters as it is very crowded on the trains and around the station
- travel to the other train station which is about 5 kms away in my work clothes (jeans and shirt)

Another review for you. I think they're a bit small.

There's a guy who rides one that I see regularly, it's low to the ground (not very visible) and quite tiny. The guy appears to be around 5'8" tall but really
looks uncomfortable on the bike, although he doesn't pedal at all so he's just using it as a scooter. If you really want something you can "ride" I would
look elsewhere.

Sorry to revive an old thread but I have two EB5 Pro+ from Amazon for $499 shipped (got them in 3 days).

My gf and I wanted something small enough to fit in the trunk and can be powered manually or electric; these bikes fit the bill perfectly.

We have only gone about 100 or so miles total but we have been loving them so far, battery lasts quite a while (I ride, maybe 50% pedaling).

My only gripe is the lack of suspension and it's only a single speed but, keeps it simple and less things to break.

They are not serious bikes, we are just casual riders that enjoy scenery.
