Alr so im a young pilot and i wanna start out on my drone journey. I have about 230€ of budget and when i find a air 1 or 2 for that price its from asia or USA (shipping is awful). Anyone got any reccomendations?

Look for a Mini, Mini SE or a Mini 2. Or wait and save up to increase your budget. I would change your goal drone to the Mini 2.

High speed bike chasing? What kind of bike?

Ouch. Well, welcome! And good luck to you. Your budget is limiting but maybe you can come across something used that works for you. All the above drones are good in the 50kph range, with the Air 2 in the 60's I believe. If you need faster, you'll be looking for a FPV. Nothing is cheap unfortunately.

DJI Mavic Air Fly More Combo - Onyx Black - 3 Akkus - 2 Taschen - Ladegerät | eBay is this one worth it?

Only you can answer that. That's going a ways back in drone years. Maybe that's the best you can do in your area, then so be it.

A primary consideration for Air 1 should be replacement batteries. Air 1 is a discontinued model - I’ve got one - if it dies, that’s the end of the story basically.
