Who should buy which
Riders from 5'2" to 6'7" who want a fat-tire e-bike with hydraulic brakes and suspension, can keep it at ground level without lifting it, and, on the Pro, want GPS tracking and tire pressure monitoring built in.
You have to lift, carry or rack the bike, since the lightest published weight is 97 lb; you want a drivetrain built around pedaling, since the manual lists a single speed and a speed sensor; or your delivery address is in Alaska, Hawaii, Puerto Rico or Rhode Island, which AOTOS's product page or shipping policies exclude.
Riders who want full suspension for joint-friendly trail and gravel comfort on a value budget, with a big battery and hydraulic brakes, and are comfortable with a value direct-to-consumer brand.
You want fully verified specs and warranty, a premium brand with dealer service, or you ride mostly smooth pavement where a hardtail like the Kingbull or Velowave is enough.
