You'll note there is something not right with that store:
1: It only has 33% positive feedback, you minimum should not go below 95%.
2: It is listed as being located in Madrid Spain.
3: Although it is stated the store was started years ago, there are only 4 reviews.
4: They simply lifted the images from the Markhor website here: ROCKET-PRO
5: Markhor is a Chinese company and advertises that bike for 3X the price on their website.
6: Markhor does not list 'ElectroSunshineStore' as one of their dealers.
7: The Markhor bike shown in their product listing as a 'Rocket' is a rebadged Dengfu E22 frame that is designed for the Bafang M620 motor and sells for about $700 at the starting price. There are numerous reputable sellers of Dengfu frames and Bafang motors both on Ali Express and other places such as 'GreenBIkeKit'. You can purchase this frame and the Bafang M620 motor and build your own, or purchase a preassembled version from reputable builders such as Frey, et.

that rock pro you sent me comes to £2500, that seems like great value, for such performance.

The components on the Rocket-Pro are entry level (such as the RD-M6100 Derailleur). I'd prefer to spend more, build my own, and get a better bike.
