In about a month, I'll be looking at buying an #eBike. I'm told fedi has a strong ebike community, so I'd appreciate advice.

  • I'll have a budget of around Β£600.
  • I'd like to buy second hand.
  • The longest distance I expect to ride is about 12 miles.
  • I need a removable battery.
  • I want to be able to add panniers.

Edit to add: I'm in the UK
