How much do those replacement chain cost each time?

I don't need to go see another forum, you claimed that you've seen "huge amount"; why should I do your research for you?

I'm sure there are plenty of problems with delivery bikes too hell charigng batteries is a huge one
Do you think majority of ebike riders ride "real off road"?
Under 1000 ft. of climbing with a geared hub motor or fixed hub motor?
Does battery charging problem not occur on mid-drive ebikes?
