Commuter E-bike

Boardman E-Bike UK

Looking to get my own e-bike after using voi bikes for the last few months to commute. Any issues that anyone can see or experience with the Boardman MTX-E 8.8?

It’s only about a mile each way daily commute on a fairly rough/tree root abundant path but I do longer 30/40 minute rides into the city, on cycle paths mainly. I would look to do more rides on nearby canal paths that again have some slightly dodgy sections and potholes.

Ideally I would find something a bit lighter but I don’t really want to give up the front suspension with how knackered the roads are around here.

Any ideas on this violin?

Come across this piece, just wondering if anyone can deduce anything from these images about age or possible maker. Unfortunately no label or maker mark I can see. Thanks!
