Hi, I'm new here and to the ebike scene.
So there is an auction selling factory seconds with a few generic brand ebikes and I can't inspect before the auction. But I'm a tinkerer and I was thinking about fixing one for myself if I score a bike I like and fix one or two to help pay for the first.

They have remarks like:

"electric not functioning"
So, is it worth it?
