E-Bike-Werkstatt: Wo dich das System bei der Inspektion abzockt und wo nicht

E-bike service is a cartel, and the dealer isn't to blame. In this video, I'll dismantle the entire system behind the service prices you pay every year. You take your e-bike in for a service and pay €120. You go for a battery check and pay €50. You need a software update, and only an authorized dealer is allowed to perform it. You ask about a battery cell replacement, and they tell you it's not possible. You ask about an independent diagnostic tool, and officially, it doesn't exist. All of this is part of a system. And in this video, I'll explain how it's structured, who's really profiting from it, and why exactly what most cyclists accuse dealers of isn't actually their doing.
