Im About to pull the trigger on one if I can find somebody wanting rid of one. I watched my buddy zip around on that thing all weekend and I can't take it anymore.
What was he riding

A quiet kat. He's got it rigged up with a bow rack and everything. Really sporty
I've got a steep slope to climb to get up on my ridge. Even in freezing weather I'm a sweaty mess by the time I get up there. If there were an ebike that could effectively get me up there without the sweat and panting, I'd be tickled pink.

My son and I both have Aventon Aventure. They are very handy.
I've had a M2S e-bike for years now. It's been a good one but this year I wanted an all wheel drive one. I bought a Rambo Krusader. It has a 500 watt hub on the front and rear. I have yet to find anything around me that it won't climb. Very stout bike and I weigh 210.

I've looked at them. Hard to spend that type of money I'd love to test them out.
That'd be fine for me. It can recharge every day. Once I'm on the ridge I'd rather walk anyway. I just need something that could get me up there.
I have an Aventon Aventure as well and it's all I care to hunt off of on my lease. The bikes are super quiet and spook critters WAY less than a 4 wheeler or SxS. Only negative is they don't like slick roads. You'll bust your butt before you know what happened. Ask me how I know..lol
I had one battery go bad but luckily it was just before my 1 yr warranty ran out.
All in all, I'm happy with mine.
How steep and how high? What I've got is an old log road that goes straight up a steep slope that gains a couple hundred feet elevation pretty quick. An ATV easily does it if it can keep traction but I've never had the balls to take my tractor up it. It's steep.
I have an ebike buts it's more like a high end mountian bike (specialized Levo Turbo) but I use it all the time to hunt. I wear my saddle, a backpack, either attach my bow to my pack or just throw it over my back with a sling on it. I use this bike all the time though; take it to mountian bike parks, the race track, and the farms to hunt. I have a bike rack permanently attached over my truck bed and can haul it anywhere easily

I really like the looks of that bike, but dang it is expensive. Maybe I am cheap, but it is going to be hard for me to part with $4k for an e bike.
I have been wanting one also as I think probably the best way any hunter could get around. They are expensive.

I got a cheaper one off of marketplace. It has been a very useful tool for long entries and exits
