I have a question. I'm 6'3" (1.90 m) tall and weigh 87 kg (191 lbs). I want to buy an e-bike for trail riding and general use, and I have a budget of around $4,500.

The two options I'm considering are a 2026 Surron LBX, which I could order from Alibaba for about $3,800, or a 2024 Surron Ultra Bee for around $3,900.

Since I live in Panama, the Ultra Bee would be a used bike, and it's quite difficult to find people selling this kind of bike on Facebook Marketplace. For the LBX, I was planning to make the necessary modifications to fit me better because I tested one in stock form and it definitely felt too small for me.

Can anyone give me some advice on what would be the better option in my situation?
