Online Ebike Purchase

I could not pass up this bike, It is the first complete bike I have purchased online. My big worry was returning it if I wasn’t happy. I have a Fuji hybrid that has similar geometry so I felt confident it would fit. I suspect I saved on the build and potential warranty labor costs, It was dropped shipped from within my state. I payed $45 for shipping, and received it in 2 days. By comparison, a Cannondale frame cost me $75 and took 7 days (Utah to California) from an online seller, that seems excessive now.

I’m gaining confidence purchasing online. Though I would prefer buying an assembled bikes in person from a LBS, saving money, doing my own assembly, and better familiarize myself with the bike is good too.



Documenting what came in the box.

Initial assembly. The bike is built, and I have accessories to still buy. So, no final picture yet.
