I ordered 3 EV's recently over the last 6 weeks. E-bikes that is. I have been price/spec./feature shopping ever since my wife wanted one mostly for transportation adventure while camping and just to putt about our rural roads.
There is something going on with Amazon.com and E bikes.
The first one I ordered was oddly low priced at $379 with free freight.
Amazon.com: Funhang Electric Bike for Adults, Peak 1000W Ebike, 25MPH 60Miles Electric Mountain Bike, 26" Fat Tire Adult Electric Bicycle with 48V 13AH Battery, Rear Rack, 7 Speed, Front Suspension, Turn Signal
Amazon.com
It was shipped thru “China Freight”, (not very inspiring)
The E-Bike never showed up, yet tracking the Ebike, it was stated it was delivered on March 15.
After a call to Amazon my account was credited.
If you go on Amazon this is closest replacement, but has a $220 freight charge!
Amazon.com
So I kept shopping on Amazon over the next few weeks and was I was about to order this for $526. It also had a 10% discount that would not apply on the checkout, so I called Amazon. They supplied a code, and then when I tried to reorder the Price went up to $699, so I would have been better to have ordered at the $526 price.
Amazon.com
Then yesterday I found this and ordered for $402.99.
Amazon.com.
I checked later in day and it was up to $999. I just checked today 3/30/25 and it is back down to $402.99??
I tracked the package and again it is supposedly shipping by “China Post” , but I will not get my hopes up.
I will call Amazon and request that this be a signed at receipt delivery and that they document delivery with photos.
PS
Hear is a review of the bike.
