There seem to be a few sellers of AMflow bikes on Alibaba, at quite decent rates
can anyone foresee any issues (dsepite the obvious).
They accept payment through Alibaba secure transaction - so should be protected
Probably warranty issues, i can live with that, anyone know if there could be issues with updates/firmware/app etc?
Cheers

I have a Carbon Pro ordered. It hasn't arrived yet. So far they seem quite professional. I should have it in a couple of weeks.

I received the bike a month or so ago. It works great. The only issue I might have is there is talk in forums that this frame is not really made by Amflow. I don't know this as a fact.

Ebike means software. Anything that's not open source, I'd make sure I can access it and tweak it and all. Different regulations in different jurisdictions, could be geo locks and a whole array of things that could end up bricking your bike.
Not being able to access the software is a key reason why I haven't bought one. If you're friends with bike shops that work on such bikes and stuff, then it's totally different. But it it's just you, keep in mind you're buying a computer on wheels.
