After parting with a fair sum of money, would you recommend any protection for e bike?
Invisitape or similar
Motor guard for underneath
Thanks

I’d definitely pay someone to do it then, I did the wrap on my SB130 and said f**k it about half through. It looks like shit but does the job it’s supposed too. I’ve paid to have it installed on every bike after that, I’d rather pay someone and keep my sanity.Definitely no patience
That's awesome thanksI have gone down the helicopter tape route. It is cheaper (lots cheaper), quicker and you can easily do it yourself. Then if you get any damage, it can be peeled off and some fresh stuff applied. You can apply several layers in the most at risk areas if you want.
I have a handy guide to applying helicopter tape. It was written by me but with the input from several others who contributed handy tips. If you want a copy, send me a private message with your email address and I'll send you a copy (absolutely free!)
I think most eMTBs come at least with a motor protection cover, generally made of plastic. Some come with aluminum skid plates which offer better protection for the motor with only a minimal weight penalty. You can also find aftermarket skid plates for some brands/models. Depending on your type of riding and places where you ride, a metal skid plate could be necessary.I was thinking skid plate just for that added protection if one doesn't come with bike I'll order one
