Can anyone suggest good ebike under $1500 ? What about Leitner, any experience or feedback ?
Considering doing 10km per trip and max 25km per day.
Came across 'Leitner' ebikes, reviews seems good mentioned on the product review website.
Looking for Electric Bike around $1500 or Cheaper

Hmmm…… Should Poland be worried?
I have a Leitner SuperT. I was lucky enough to buy it through Gumtree from someone who had bought it less than a month prior and decided they no longer wanted it. I haven't used it a great deal, as the weather has not been on my side and I'm very much a fair weather rider.
In the time I've used it, I've been beyond thrilled with it, as have all the friends I've convinced to have a go on it, with a few considering buying their own now. I do most of my riding along the river and there are many ups and down in the landscape, it makes the ups a breeze. As noted by one of the friends that tried it, it takes all the "no fun" bits out of bike riding.
I would highly recommend a Leitner based on my experience with this one.
I recently purchased the velectrix, they had a sale day and it was $1295

Don't buy anything you haven't test ridden first.
The quality of some of these electric bikes you find on the internet is poor - Note, I'm talking about the bike itself rather than the electric components…
Everybody up top has recommended some pretty good bikes, I haven't ridden anything but a focus aventura myself but I went for something more expensive when I was going for it. What I recommend is finding your local electric bike store and test ride a few, and then save up some extra for one you like. The long and short of it is that these bikes aren't cheap, and unless you really like it you shouldn't go for it. The milage you've detailed isn't a small amount, so you need to be sure you're comfortable. With that in mind, I got into ebikes using this page from the site I eventually bought from. None of their bikes are less that 1500, but it'll inform you on what kind of category you should go for, and I'd really recommend bumping up to the 2k bracket to give yourself a lot more options.

Good luck buddy, hope you find something that fits your lifestyle
I have the Leitner Berliner bike.
Very happy with it. Built like a tank.
