I'm just a dad, I was looking in temu and found some e-bike offers there for around 300 bucks. Are those any good?

If you want to start a fire at a random time, then yes.

Temu is the new Wish. Don’t buy it if you want something of actual value.

When you see a product that is significantly cheaper than the market but the specs are roughly equivalent, it is either a scam or terrible.

You get what you pay for, and all that.

Everything I've seen on Temu is very cheaply made. The things I have purchased have been my lowest expectation of that product. It's good for things like signs, stickers, and crafting products.

Have you ever bought something from Amazon and thought you paid way too much for something that clearly came straight from China? If you look on Temu for the same product with a similar description you'll usually find it for at least half the cost.

Try used bike sites where there are individuals owners trying to sell their old bikes. You might have some luck there finding something.
