    This. Plenty of US companies make eBikes, and most of the very high quality bikes come out of somewhere in Europe.

      I mean, yeah I’m all for it. But most of us don’t have the money to buy European/Us made e-bikes. I got mine a few months ago, thankfully. It’s a US company, but they use Chinese parts. It’s a great bike, and I got it on sale for $700. A bunch of the nice ones were like $2500+. So many of us don’t have the option of getting those.
