Electric Mountain Bike Under 3k?
Is there any good electric mtb under 3k? I plan on using the bike for commuting purposes but still, want the rigidity as well as the better control. I feel the electric bike would help when I commute on longer distances and when it's during the winter when it's cold. I'm not gonna be using the mtb for off-roading or downhill so I don't really need a full-suspension bike, although given electric motors it does make full suspension bikes to be a bit more efficient for long-distance travel on flat land. I do want a bike that has a flat bar and looks like a conventional bike not anyone of the bikes that has the battery exposed and it has a hub motor.

Spare battery pack 200 dollars.

How do you even find a replacement battery for that Hyper eBike? I googled and couldn't find any parts.
He wants a mid drive motor, which is a bit more expensive. I have a Raleigh Kodiak iE (iZip branded), and it seems to meet the requirements (except visibility of battery) assuming you can find one in stock. I love it!

Haibike, as well as many other companies, have bikes that fit your requirements, especially if you purchase at the end of the model year as I did. My mid-drive Yamaha system (Haibike XDURO) would accomplish your requirements, but there are many other Treks etc that are equally as good. Best to locate a good dealer if there are ones in your area.

Raleigh is an old and high quality brand. Our son bought a new Raleigh and it was well built. Stolen within 1 week.

When I bought my iZip E3 Peak DS I didn't know it was a Raleigh. iZip removed it from the catalog and when I asked customer service about it they told me that it was covered by Raleigh being the same bike as the Kodiak. I got a killer deal on it, $2530 before state sales tax. They originally stated out at $5K.

$200 is a killer price for a battery pack. That's what got me wondering.

That bike is run on Bosch which is top drawer industrial . Low end e-bikes are flashlight battery cheap,
