Best eBike brands overall

Hey everyone!

I'm diving deep into the eBike world lately, and while I love tinkering with my current setup, I'm already dreaming about my next build or upgrade. I'm curious to hear your thoughts on "best eBike brands overall" – not just for off-the-shelf bikes, but also considering frame quality, motor/battery integration, and how mod-friendly they are. For those of you who've built or heavily customized, which brands offer a great foundation for a DIY project, especially for a commuter/light trail setup? What are your experiences with different manufacturers' components and chassis for long-term durability and customizability?
