NEW! Jetson Bolt Pro Electric Bike Test & Review

In this video the boys and I will be doing an unboxing, test and review of the Jetson Bolt Pro folding electric bike we picked up at our local Costco. The item number for Costco is 1426314. We've been wanting to try an E-Bike and when we came across this one I couldn't resist, especially at this price point.
I have also prepared another video (Part 2) that will cover the assembly and charging of the bike. Make sure to check it out! • Jetson Bolt Pro Electr...

Great, thorough review! I think you covered just about everything. Thank you especially for doing real world tests including the full 49 laps (~15 miles)!

[@javosgarage]

@Hypocrite Troll Bot - Well thank you very much for the compliment! I tried to cover everything after using the bike for about a week and a half. The only thing I wished I would have included is the bike can be a little wobbly until you get used to it. I think it's because of the smaller wheels. It's a great bike though. We liked it so much we went and got another one so each of our boys could have one to ride. The kids love 'em! Dad thinks they're pretty fun too. Thanks for stopping by and taking a moment to leave me a comment - much appreciated!

[@heminthehat]

Solid video. I was looking for a review where I could see the ride of the bike from another person's perspective. Thanks Javo, I am sold!

[@ici_coop]

So fun to watch your son helping out. He did great 👍

[@guppeeh]

great review, you really helped me out assessing this ebike. keep it up!

[@javosgarage]

@Kevin C - First off, thank you very much for the compliment! I'm super glad you found my review helpful. The kids are still riding the bike a lot and it continues to do great for us. So far it's a real bargain. Thank you for stopping by and taking a moment to leave me some feedback - much appreciated!

[@glendakraft5157]

I just ordered so looking forward to having a little fun, thank you!

[@javosgarage]

@Glenda Kraft - That's great Glenda! I bet by now you've put quite a few miles on it and are having a great time. We've certainly enjoyed ours for sure. I hope your bike does just great for you and provides many years of enjoyment. Thanks for stopping by and taking a moment to leave me a comment.

[@DanielinLaTuna]

Love your enthusiasm and the review. I got the previous generation, no pedals, just foot pegs. When I run out of juice, gotta walk it. Thinking of getting this model for myself. Got one for my sister and she loves it

[@javosgarage]

@DanielinLaTuna - Well thank you for the compliment Daniel! We have been really happy with our bike. The boys have put a lot of miles on them and they continue to do great with no problems. I think the pedal option is a fantastic feature because it allows us to pedal on flat surfaces to conserve the battery if need be, it allows us to go up some pretty steep hills around here with ease and (like you mentioned) if the battery does run out you can pedal the bike home as opposed to walking it. This is just a great little bike for the money IMHO. Glad to hear your sister is enjoying hers, I bet you would too. Thnaks for stopping by!

Excellent review

[@DonnyBWise]

Fantastic review! As I own the same ebike myself I can say that I agree with your assessment and also would recommend the cantilever style rear post rack ( I have saddle bags on the one I use and it's a great addition) The only thing I found to be in a little disagreement with is that I find the front headlight to be lacking in brightness for night riding in dark areas. I have circumvented this easily however with the addition of a very bright small handheld flashlight being zip tied to the center of the top of the handle bar. Aesthetically it is not even very noticeable and it functions perfectly as an addition to the front headlight. I also attached a very bright small battery operated rear light to the back top of the rear fender. For the most part I found your review to be quite in-depth and right on point. I couldn't agree more that at this price point it is a phenomenal deal! Being that I weigh 210 lbs I am entirely impressed that this little ebike can pull me along as zippy as it does, and, it does it well. The build quality is top-notch, and, is very well built especially considering the price point. Thanks for the review I'm sure it will help a lot of people enteringinto this fascinating, quickly changing market of electric bicycling.

[@javosgarage]

@Donald Wiser - Wow Donald, thank you so much for the great compliment on my review! They're great bikes and continue to do really well for us. When we ride our bike in the evening we noticed light on the big trees that line the sides of our street that were quite a ways off, however it seems that the bulb is more of a floodlight than a spotlight that was directed to the road in front of the bike so I think you make a great point. Adding the spotlight to the front as you did is a good idea, I bet it's perfect now. Thank you for stopping by and taking the time to leave a comment that will help me and others - much appreciated!

[@DonnyBWise]

@@javosgarage Absolutely! Love to see enthusiastic like minded people getting out on bikes and with this field expanding, technology becoming more advanced and prices coming into a doable realm for many more of us, I try to pay attention to a lot of reviews to stay current. Some are pretty good. Others leave me asking more questions than I had before watching it. I though you nailed it well and hope you do future reviews on whatever the product might be. You covered this bike well! I didn't remember to point out that I do agree with you on the seat being a little harsh for more lengthly bike rides. I'm going to trade mine out for a seat that I have off of another bike with a minimum travel post shock on it as well to take the edge off of bumps and jolts. I also find myself wanting to relax one arm off of the handle while riding in cruise control... And, notice the bike can become a bit squirrely feeling on the rougher roads... Overall, it's a great bike and really would still be at $100-$150 more than Costco sold it for! Thanks again... Happy riding!

[@javosgarage]

@Donald Wiser - You know Donald I had been wanting to try an ebike for some time but the cost just didn't justify a purchase for us. One night the boys and I were wandering around Costco while the wife was shopping and came across this bike. I couldn't believe the price and figured it would really be junk but thought it would be fun to try and quite honestly, do a review video. We were really surprised, this is a great bike and for the money it can't be beat. Looking back I regret neglecting how the bike can tend to be a bit squirrely as you mentioned. I'm thinking this is due to the smaller 14" wheels. However, we liked the bike so much we went and purchased another one so each of the boys will be able to ride. We will definitely be having some happy riding, you do as well!

[@chrispatten7565]

Great review. I picked one up from Costco today $299.99.

All of our local stores are out; I even checked the website and they don't seem to be available there anymore either. It's a great deal and I bet you'll be really happy with your purchase.

[@hmirah245]

@@javosgarage Hi Javo! Just received my bike 3 days ago and I’m loving it! Everything’s working well and was extremely easy to assemble. Only thing I must say is that the seat is a bit uncomfortable. Fantastic ride overall and your video helped when I was assembling the bike. Thank you!

[@javosgarage]

@Tobin Atwood - Glad to hear you like it, my kids are loving theirs. I'm also glad to hear I'm not the only one who thought the seat was a bit uncomfortable. We added a gel seat pad and that made a big difference, you may consider that at some point. A rack is also a great addition, my kids use it all the time when they make a trip to the store. Super happy my assembly video was helpful to you. Enjoy your new bike and thanks for getting back with me, I hope to see you around here in the future!

[@benjaminlitvinyuk1537]

where did you get it

[@andrefecteau]

I'm 55, I got one a couple weeks ago...short story "get one"...much better than expected, whatever shortcomings people complain about is mere whining...you can spend ALOT more, but you probably won't use it...good range, your butt will be sore before you wear the battery out...if you need to get back in shape this is perfect...gets you out and moving again

Fantastic tutorial of this bike. I didn't realize it had cruise control, until I watched your video. I live in Palm Harbor, Florida for 6 months and in Michigan for the other 6. I am able to collapse this bike and transport it between states in my Ford Escape. Can't say enough about this bike. It is a solid built bike and have been enjoying it immensely. I would recommend it to anyone. Thank you sir.

will these bikes fit on my slide hitch two bike racks as they do for my mountain bikes? I have a sports car with a small trunk. Thank you for the great reviews

[@javosgarage]

@Brad Callahan - Hi Brad. Sorry for the delay, we decided to get away for a few days so I'm just now getting a chance to respond to comments. I'm sorry but I'm not real knowledgeable when it comes to bike racks. I can tell you a few things - We have a hitch mounted 4 bike rack that is the "hanging" style if you will and this bike would not work with that rack. I think it may be okay if your rack is the kind where the wheels sit on a rail. I did go out and get a few measurements off the bike - it's overall length is 46" and the distance between the center of the hubs is 32". Hopefully that info can help you decide if it would work for you. Let me know if you have any other questions I can't directly answer, LOL! If I don't know I will at least try to get some info that will help. Thanks for stopping by!

[@sperx4385]

i just got one like 2 days ago and im the size f the older kid and it goes way quicker than the way you guys are going

[@javosgarage]

@Sperx - Interesting. I would say ours goes pretty quick too. Quite frankly I was surprised at it's speed, especially at this price point. If ours went any faster I think the boys would have some ramps setup out in the front yard and then I'd be in trouble with the wife. LOL! Good luck with your new bike, ours has done great so I bet you'll be really happy with it. Thanks for stopping by!

[@bearcarbs9993]

Hey loved your tutorial, did you have a problem with you bike stopping suddenly right when you start to use the acceleration? Just wondering thanks

[@javosgarage]

I haven't had that issue. Almost sounds like a possible short in the motor caused by a quick rotation when accelerating. I did have to adjust the brakes last fall, for some reason they "loosened up" and were basically nonexistent. It only took a few minutes and the kids were out riding again. I wish I could be of more help, I hope you find a solution. Thanks for stopping by!

[@arobjavan9481]

Seems the range is too short, make sure you are in good shape or someone at home to come pick you up on the way back.

[@johngavina1]

15 miles is pretty decent. If your job is 10 miles away on the bike trail, then you only need 3 or 4 hours of charging at work and it can sit right by your desk. I own one for nearly a year now. And I'm 280 pounds lol.

[@yising4u2qt]

Speeding up the camera is deceptive to some people. I am 85 years old and I enjoyed mine very much.I found turning off the power when mountings or dismounting Avoids Iturning the throttle accidentally.

[@familylifechristiancentre1738]

Hi there, great video. I just bought for my son's birthday. I have a Question; can you hold the throttle and pedal at same time? If you do that by accident will it damage it?

[@javosgarage]

Hello! Good question, I can't say that I have tried that. However, I do have two younger boys who ride this bike and I wouldn't doubt they've done that more than a few times with ours. LOL! Ours is still going strong to this day. The biggest thing I have to maintain is adjusting the brakes to keep them effective. Sorry, I wish I had a better answer for you. Thanks for stopping by!

Did you buy on there website and if so how long did it take to get tracking number

[@b20eg195]

I'm waiting and or doing some research to see if I can find a cheap modified battery of 36v and more ah. 8.0-9.0ah would be better than 6.0ah and perhaps get more miles ranges out of it... Now I do wish there is a way to upgrade the hub motor and controller to get unlocked speed. I prefer 18-21 mph . A 350w motor is capable of up to 25mph but I get it for longevity etc...let's hope in time someone comes out with upgrades and mods... Great video by the way!

[@javosgarage]

@EvoEG - Thank you for the compliment on the video! You and I are alike, LOL. I was just thinking the other day I should open that thing up and see what "improvements" could be made someday. However, at the moment it seems to be plenty fast for my kids. Anything faster and I'm sure they'll have some ramps setup in the front yard if you know what I mean. You sound waaaaay more knowledgeable on the subject than me however so if you ever do something like that and make a video please let me know, I'd love to watch it! Thank you for stopping by and taking a moment to leave me some feedback - much appreciated!

[@b20eg195]

@@javosgarage So I managed to open it up and looked at the battery and the controller/ecu board that controls all the stuff on the bike. I noticed there were two plugs not being used. One with a 4 pin and the other 1 with a 2 pin. I would like to find out what these are or perhaps someone with the old bolt controller and compare differences. But for now what I really like to do is find or mod a higher amp rate battery in 36v to fit/work with this new bolt pro. Even a controller 36v or a new 48v with a smaller battery in 48v 6.0+an I'm happy. Since this hub motor is 350w at up to 15.5mph and longevity in stock form I'm sure if we can get a new compatible 36v/48v controller with or without upgrade battery in 36v/48v form it may allow us to use full speed of the 350w at 20-25mph. Just one thing don't know of longevity now lol....I'll keep you all updated if I ever come across something even if it's a good mod or a link with working solutions 👍

[@javosgarage]

@EvoEG - Hey Evo! Sorry for the late response. YT does not notify me when someone responds to an existing comment, only new ones. I just happened to be scrolling through and found your comment. I appreciate the feedback. It will be interesting to see if you find some compatible parts to make this switch. I will be looking forward to a future update. Longevity of the motor and electronic components is my concern but it will be fun to tinker with it down the road. Thank you for getting back with me!

[@ryukenden888x]

​@@b20eg195 the 4 pin plug is for the bluetooth module. i have a bolt and bolt pro. i was able to unlock both bikes to 19 mph. you need to download the the 6.2.7 version of the ride jetson app. connect to the bolt and change the speed to 19. with the bolt pro, it's kinda tricky. you need to remove the bluetooth controller from the bolt and connect it to the bolt pro. they use the same controller for both bikes. connect to it via the android app and change the speed. both of my bikes are now 19mph

[@b20eg195]

@@ryukenden888x that's exllecent work! Now the problem is I don't have the bolt and so I don't know how the bluetooth one looks like and or perhaps send me pictures or links to a module with the bluetooth. The app I have no problem finding on my own would love for it to hit 19mph. We have 3 of the bolt pro. Do you have a messenger or fb? Much appreciated

[@justalaugher]

is the biking making huge chain noise while pedaling? I found my bike making that big clucking noise when pedaling, which is super annoying.

[@javosgarage]

@HZH ARCHIVE - I don't get any more chain noise with our Bolt Pro than I get on our other "normal" bikes. Sounds like you may have a small issue if it's a loud, clunking noise. If you purchased it at CostCo they have a fantastic return policy so I would take it back and get another one. Hope that helps you. Thanks for stopping by!

[@oinkpiggin]

How is the bike going ? I read many reviews regarding how unreliable this bike is. The battery is not good after couple month of usages.

[@javosgarage]

@oinkpiggin - Our bike is doing great. The kids have racked up more miles than I can count at this point. We have had no issues with the bike and the battery life has remained stable with no decline that we've noticed. It's still a great deal IMHO. Very happy with it. Like any mass produced, man-made product I'm sure there are some customers who have had problems with their bikes but ours is just great, couldn't be happier. *Something to note - we got ours at CostCo and when we did I talked to a manager there who told me if we had any problems with it over the next year or so we could return it for refund. Now quite frankly I haven't tested his "verbal" return policy but my wife has returned some things after some time has passed and never had a problem. If you're going to get one, I would order it through them so at least you would have some sort of safety net in the event of problems. Just my 2 pennies worth of advice.

[@centralparocker8886]

I just got one three days ago...here in Orlando/Winter Park... ...

[@billbuss7542]

I’ve seen some adults riding these and it seems like the seat is too low and they can’t extend there leg properly while pealing. Can the seat be raised so there is only a slight bend of the knee while pedaling?

[@neelatarzi9466]

You can adjust the handle bars and seat!

[@javosgarage]

@Bill Buss - Hi Bill. Sorry for the delay, we decided to get away for a few days so I'm just now getting a chance to respond to comments. Neela is correct - the seat height is adjustable but I really think the answer to your question is it kind of depends on the height of the rider. Ultimately, this is somewhat of a compact bike that is designed for easy storage so don't expect the same fit as a full size bike. If it helps, I went out and raised the seat on ours and it ended up at 32" in height. Another thing, you may take a closer look towards the end of the video when we were riding it out in the country. I'm about 5'10" and my oldest son is 6' tall so that may help provide you some perspective. Hope that helps you a bit. Thanks for stopping by!

[@D.C.22]

That was the same question I had. Everyone looks a bit "crunched" while on the bike but i understand if the seat wasn't raised in the video. Concerned because I'll be making deliveries on the bike and proper leg extension is crucial.

I am buying my 18 son one for his birthday, I am just concerned , how does he lock it up when he is in school and work, he works at Mcdonalds, and church. All of these places is around a mile from each other. I know there are poles , do I lock it up like a bike with chains

[@javosgarage]

@Sherronda Nance - Hello Sherronda! Sorry for the delay. I totally understand your concern about securing the bike. These bikes are real popular so I'm sure a would be thief would love to get one. When we use ours for trips to the store we make sure it is fastened to something very sturdy and run the bike lock through the carrying handle on the frame. We don't run it through the wheels since you could unbolt those and still get the bike so we make sure to secure the main frame of the bike. I would think the church would allow him to store his bike somewhere inside, especially since it can be folded up into such a small package. Also, make note of the serial number on the bike so in the event it is stolen the police "may" get it returned to you by verifying the serial number. Your son is going to LOVE this btw! My kids have a blast riding this thing and so far it has been holding up really well. Hope that helps you a bit, let me know if you have any other questions. Thanks for stopping by!

[@DanielinLaTuna]

I use a sturdy chain. Cost about $75 and heavy as a brick. But it’s not like you have a street lightweight bicycle. The U-shape lock I have doesn’t work because it won’t fit around the grab handle, which is a perfect place to secure it

[@lucybaker7813]

does it come fully charged or like half charged or what

[@javosgarage]

@Luke Thorsen - Hi Luke. If I remember correctly ours was at about 75% because it didn't take too long to completely charge. Which was a good thing because the kids weren't up for waiting the 4 hours needed when it's completely drained. Thanks for stopping by!

How do you generally park this on street?

[@ashishshah59]

few pointers. rear light you are refering is the fog light which you may hardly need. bike specification says age is 16+ so as per Jetson not recommended for kids

[@hammyld4935]

Hey when you move the bike does it make any clicking sound and when you are using the power/throttle without pedaling is it suppose to make some sound because I bought two of these and I hear something when it goes. Thank you

[@javosgarage]

I just grabbed one of ours and took it for a quick ride to verify my answer for you. The bike does make a clicking sound at the rear hub when the bike is moving forward but is silent when backing up. This is a sound we also get when moving our regular bikes so I'm sure this normal operation in that rear hub. The bike doesn't really make any sound when accelerating other than a whirring sound that comes from the tires on the pavement, it's totally quiet on our grass. Hope that answers your questions, thanks for stopping by!

[@D.C.22]

Around Christmas time I checked around and didn't find the bike in any store near me. Has anyone recently been able to physically see one in-store? I'm a bit leery about ordering one online without getting to sit on it at least.

[@javosgarage]

@D.C. - Our local CostCo sold out of the bikes in November here but they did have some back again a few weeks ago when we were there. I did check their website yesterday however and they weren't listed there. I think they may have sold out again. These bikes go really fast around here (no pun intended). Maybe your local CostCo could give you an idea of when they expect to get some in? Spring is coming so I would think it won't be long.

[@javosgarage]

Hey D. C. - Just thought I'd let you know I looked on CostCo's site this morning and the Bolt Pro is listed for $299 again, although I don't know for how long. Here's a link: www.costco.com/jetson-bolt-pro-folding-electric-bike.product.100712067.html

[@sandrarenwick1225]

Can you order a replacement battery and could you charge the bike while operating it with one of the portable charging battery units? Wired lights would be a great idea and a way to lock it so no one can take off with your bike under power. Awesome review and these are available in our Canadian Costco stores as well for about $389 cdn

[@javosgarage]

@Sandra Renwick - Wow Sandra, thank you for the compliment and great questions! 1. There is a listing for a "Bolt" replacement battery on Jetson's website but it doesn't specify for the "pro" version so I'm not sure of the compatibility. Here is a link: ridejetson.com/collections/parts/products/bolt-electric-bike-battery Here is their product support page for the Bolt Pro as well: support.ridejetson.com/hc/en-us/sections/360010234912-Jetson-Bolt-Pro-Bike It would be best to contact them directly to find out which battery replacement you would need but it does appear you can buy parts for the bike. 2. Not sure about being able to hook up a portable power source to the bike to charge while it is in use. Also, not sure if it would charge while being used. I have a few flashlights that allow me to "charge" them while using but I can't say in regards to this bike. I guess if I were to be brutally honest I would say I don't believe this particular bike is designed to accommodate charge while in use so that may not make this a good choice for you if that's something you really need. 3. The front light is hard wired into the system, however the rear light is battery operated. I completely agree with you, I wish they were BOTH wired into the system so there were no batteries to replace and they could both be activated by pressing the button on the handlebars. 4. Our local CostCo sold out before Christmas but they are back again. They are $399 at our store. A super great deal IMHO. I hope some or all of this information will be helpful to you. I appreciate you stopping by!

@@javosgarage which Costco store are you seeing them in?

[@javosgarage]

@Sandra Renwick - We were at a CostCo at Riverpoint, located in Sheridan, Colorado about 2 or 3 weeks ago when we saw them again. I just looked and CostCo doesn't have them listed on their website however so it's possible they've sold out again. This is such a great deal they go really fast.

[@benjaminlitvinyuk1537]

where did you get it

[@javosgarage]

@benjamin litvinyuk - Hi Benjamin. I picked ours up from the local Costco. They were also on their website but I just checked and they aren't listed there anymore. Jetson's website says they will be offering them through their website this fall so I would assume that would be there shortly. When Jetson begins to offer them on Amazon I will make sure to post a link in the description above. Thanks for stopping by!

Awesome USA flag; way to represent!

[@javosgarage]

@SandaBoxing - Thank you. I love my country and I'm proud to display our flag. I installed a tall flag pole in the back of my truck, any time we take the truck out our flag is flying. I installed a light back there too so I fly it at night as well, it actually looks pretty cool going down the road at night. Thank you for stopping by and taking a moment to leave me a comment - thank you.

@@javosgarage My city & state are full of dirtbags. I had a green miltary-ish cap with an American flag velcroed in the front and I got dirty looks often. First I didn't think nothing of it, but these scumbags would look up right toward my foreheads then give me the dirty look. It wasn't until I had my food tampered with that I realized it, but luckily I was standing right there waiting for it so they couldn't do much to it other than press down super hard on the sandwich & left a deep handprint. Somebody stole my cap too & prob. threw it away. I'm also not White neither.

@Anas Elkilany - No, this is Colorado. Beautiful countryside when you get away from the city!

what abt a weight of 230 lbs

[@javosgarage]

@R T - Jetson specifies a weight limit of 260 lbs so 230 lbs should be fine. When I am going to ride the bike for a ways I just add a little more air in the tires and then take it back out for when the kids ride. I had a neighbor take it for a ride and he's about 210 lbs; the bike did just fine. Hope that helps you. Thanks for stopping by!

Fixing to get myself one Friday

[@javosgarage]

I bet you'll really like it Shawn. My kids still love riding this one around and it continues to do great. The only thing I had to do was a brake adjustment, other than that no problems. I hope yours does great for you too. Thanks for stopping by!

[@fishinman69]

Bluetooth??

[@javosgarage]

@fishinman69 - Unfortunately, no. One of the drawbacks of this bike. This is why it is not compatible with the Jetson App, too bad. However, to keep a bike like this at a price this competitive I'm sure some "options" had to be eliminated. I certainly would like to have had it on the bike but it is still a great bike. My boys are really enjoying it. Thanks for stopping by!

Why so many You tube videos on this bike?

[@javosgarage]

@Pedro Fernandez - Well Pedro, I would have to assume because they're so popular. For me, when we purchased our bike there were only a few videos and there wasn't a lot of detail about the features of the bike. Therefore, I thought it may beneficial for some viewers if I made a review with a bit more more detail along with some tests and honest feedback. Hope that answers your question. Thanks for stopping by!

[@pedrofernandez8729]

@@javosgarage Nothing wrong with everyone doing videos if they're happy with their purchases, on the other hand, the bike i got has zero videos or reviews from customers, perhaps they're not happy with their choice? I just find it strange that with so many affordable e bikes out there, this one seems to be the most reviewed.
