That's partly why I have a cheap chinese ebike (still wasn't cheap, but nothing like some of the silly numbers some manufacturers are quoting). The parts are all cobbled together from other chinese manufactures and are pretty much standard. If it breaks, I replace a bit (they sell most of the parts on their website), or upgrade it, depending how I feel. Nothing proprietary there at all.
What bike do you have, if you don't mind sharing?
It's a Hitway bk11. One of the most popular on Amazon (well I think the bk6 is).
The display for example is an S866, which are cheap and all over ebay/amazon. Heck, I could even interface an esp32 in there if I can find some documentation for the ubuiquitous 'communication protocol no.2'...
