The proper electric has changed a few things to deal with the extra weight and torque;
completely new fork, strengthened crown, suitable dropouts with better axle connection.
Strengthened stem
BXP brake pads
Cyber rims - probably for Eu law electric bike ease rather than more suitable
improved fork hook
The main thing I see is front wheels being ripped out, uncontrollable bikes, fork hooks broken, cables everywhere.
Worse I have seen it goodbye two front teeth and a broken nose because the front wheel managed to come out of the fork etc.
Forks being widened is somewhat questionable too!
