Welcome Bikes4ever!
I have both the e-bike and a 2stroke gas bike. First time for either of them.
The e-bike is a charge, ride, forget bike . Just adjust the breaks once in a month or so. That is all I have done in the 8 months that I have had the e-bike( GenZe 101 sport).
The gas bike is a high mantinance bike!
The break in part is the worst. Always have to retighten nuts and bolts.
But it is a lot of fun to ride, and I like working on it too.
Hope this helps, Both are fun in their own way .
Keep looking up! Ken.
