Ride it before you buy it.

Does Uber have bike options in COMO?
The last I checked it wasn't an option in Missouri.

I realize you have a time crunch but don’t rush! Also, see if you can find a local bike shop, because you will need to get it worked on and NO ONE works on Amazon bikes.

I use the DTTZH 25AH version. I got it off of Amazon for this exact purpose to Uber eats with. Paid $560 after shipping and taxes. Made my money back 5times over now..And yes I have taken it in to a shop, albeit just for a tire repair. But it was no issue for me. Ive also had contact with support and they replied same day and offer extra batterys for only $300 for extra range. I get about 40-50 true miles with about 70% pedal assist and 30 throttle. Came with 1yr warranty and all major parts and battery. Don't get the hate the cheaper ebikes get these days. Yes a couple of years ago I would not recommend off Amazon. But technology grows fast and this bike I holding up nicely. But again, this is just my personal experience

Honestly, I hate to break it to you. But any ebike that will last long enough to make your money back will be at least 1500 bucks. Look at a brand called Lectric
Anything cheaper will be off brand Chinese crap with a battery that will likely burn your house down
It won't last a year and it won't be repairable. No bike shop will work on it and even if you're a bike mechanic - you won't be able to get parts.
Don't believe me, just cruise this site and you'll see it over and over.
It's really worth the extra 500 bucks, especially if you want to deliver.
Lectric is used by many delivery drivers as a first ride
Good luck

Isn't everything made in China nowadays?
Tomj_Oad@reddit
Yes. But customer support, transparency and a good network of dealers/repair shops males a huge difference.

Try Walmart online. Cheaper and you have a better warranty. Prices are better and unlike temu, You'll have a better chance to get someone online to help you in case it breaks down. You also might want to get insurance as well just in case it gets stolen

Don’t buy an ebike on Amazon. Those bikes are unreliable and when they break down you’ll just lose your money.
Instead, buy from one of the budget DTC brands if you want a budget ebike: Lectric, Ride1Up, Aventon, or Velotric.
