For a QUALITY belt-drive e-bike? Absolutely. There are a few brands that make cheaper belt-drive single-speeds, like Ride1Up: https://ride1up.com/product/roadster-v2/
But compared to that bike, this one from Rad Power has a better motor, bigger battery with more range, disc brakes, front suspension, a rack with integrated lights…and Rad Power has a better reputation as a brand. So this bike is a bargain at $1400 IMO.
If I could think of one criticism, it would be that this bike should come with a Gates belt drive (that’s the top brand in the belt drive market). But the 2-year warranty inspires confidence, even if they’re not using a Gates drive.
