This was my first e-bike that I recently purchased. I was waiting a very long time for one worth buying. Other than the geometry (+ folding capability), the battery size got me to hop on it quickly. After about 200km now on my trip meter, I'm pleasantly surprised with how it rides. Being a long time XC rider, this thing is serving it's purpose superbly as a touring / grocery getter for me. Only thing that kind of has me sideways about it is the charge time. I've yet to drain it completely, but I know it takes at least 5 hours to charge if you hit the halfway point. I've yet to drain it completely, but it's nice to not have rangr anxiety like when you're on a scooter.

Guys we did 32 miles on level 3 then turned around and did 32 miles on the return trip on level 4. Still had 2 out of 5 bars remaining when we got back to our destination. Then before turning off it jumped back to 3 bars. Just some real world numbers for anyone looking into getting these.

Well i pulled the trigger and bought this same exact bike, i looked at the reviews and seen the one that your wife i suppose put in there , she mentioned this yt video so i watched and you convinced me to buy it... Thank you..
@EastCoastCurt5 ай бұрын
Good to hear . . I did buy two. One for me and one for the wife. They're an amazing value and you won't be disappointed. All electric bikes are going to increase in price next month so it's a good thing you ordered.

@@EastCoastCurt I did an awful amount of research before buying, watched countless videos and reading reviews on Amazon, this one seems to check all of the boxes of the things I'm looking for, I mainly want it to travel locally and it comes with a back basket and since it folds up I'd like to keep it in the back of my crv as an emergency get home vehicle.... Btw does this bike have cruise control?... Some say it does and some say it doesn't, others don't mention it, however investigating the photos on the screen I see the same symbol my car has for cruise control..

Car advantages... 3 people can come with you... you have a secure trunk that keeps things out of sight... you stay dry in the rain... you have a great sound system... you have a place to sleep if you get locked out (LOL)... it has an alarm and can't be stolen easily... if you have a sweet ride it impresses the chicks... :D

No doubt. I'm a car enthusiast myself.But what about those who are unable to afford a car or they'd rather save money? I ride to work and get better parking everywhere I go. Further destinations or bad weather I do drive.

Wow thats a beefy battery on that bike. Debating on getting it especially seeing it for $900. I wonder if I was to change the motor to a 750W, how fast this bike will go?
@EastCoastCurt10 ай бұрын
It's definitely a 750w I've even raced it against my other 750w bikes and it's beaten them.
@PhamVans7 ай бұрын
I believe it already comes with a 750w. Peaks out around 20amps which is 960w of power with the 48v battery.
