Electric Bike Reviews

Sorry if this has been discussed in prior threads but I didn't see any on a search. I noticed a recommendation on Cool Tools for a site called Electric Bike Reviews and I am curious if any folks here know whether it is a good source of info.

IMO, decent source of information and the reviewer is enthusiastic; just need to read between the lines since there are very few negatives.

You'll find the most up to date info there, he's very good about sourcing and reporting. His reviews come with video so you can get a sense of a bike as it is being ridden, usually with hill tests included. It's one of several good sources for info, don't rely on just one, ever.

Without masking the lines, Court has a tactful way of presenting negatives in a more positive manner. There are few [if any] people around who have experienced as many eBikes, and that adds some cred to his video and written reviews. It isn’t unusual to find more tech data about a bike on Court’s site than is published at the manufacturer and vendor sites.
