> E-bike motors are not very reliable

I wouldn't be quick to reach that conclusion. AFAIK, battery stability and reliability depend heavily on who makes the battery. My e-bike has a Bosch system. I've had it for 5 years and never once has the electrical system, including the battery, failed.

@EverydayMoggie asks:

E-bike motors are not very reliable; it seems that about 25% of them fail pretty quickly.

Q6. If you have an e-bike, have you had trouble with the motor?

Q3a. How do you plan your departure time to ensure on-time arrival?
