Nice Ride
Stronger and better with more features than I expected. Also just a bit heavier, but that’s ok. I averaged 10 miles in each of the first four days of use, and now have it ergonomically adjusted to my liking. I added saddlebags and a longer mirror. Came with a decent bike lock and storage bracket too. Instructions were not model-specific. I’m a big guy and this is a suitable big bike.

Excellent E-Bike
Let me start off by saying that it is a very well built piece of hardware and assembly was very easy, since most of the bike was assembled from the box, except the front tire, handle bars, front fender, rear rack and accessories. Everything functions as advertised and I am very happy with the ride and handling of the bike so far. I am 6' 1" @ 230lbs and this bike feels stable and is easy to control. The display monitor is very visible in any light condition and displays all necessary stats. Shipping was fast.

Great all around bike
The battery life is not bad at all, after assembly and the battery had a full charge I put it to the test i'm a long distance rider for a 66 year old and in 3 days on the first assist at 11 miles per hour and with 2 cells left on the battery I am at 93 miles and that's on open road slight grades. The seat is a soft vinyl with lots of cush the rear shock is very stiff I will be changing it out. The assembly was a piece of cake I did turn the gooseneck around to bring the handle bars a little closer to me so my hand don't get numb. The readout is great easy to use had to adjust the gears now there smooth and no skiping. I don't see a need for the twist grip speed control of the higher assist levels I just needed a comfortable ride and for bikepacking for camping and bike can do the job. Very happy camper.🚴🚴🚴🚴🚴🚴🚴

Over all I'm happy with this bike.
I've had this bike now for a few months and I've been holding off on writing a review. The first thing I like about this bike is it looks like a traditional mountain bike. Most E-bikes look like they should have circus bears riding them. They are just so weird looking. The next thing I like is how much fun it is to ride. I personally don't ride for exercise, I ride because it's always been fun and now that I'm older, the bike makes it so much easier to just enjoy the ride instead of having to get off and walk it when I just can't hack it. That being said, even thr steepest of hills are challenging at the highest setting. The battery is super great too. I've gone for a few 10+ mile rides and barely made a dent in it when fully charged. The best thing, for me though, is it can fold in half. I live in a one bedroom duplex and the fact it can fold saves me a bunch of space. That said, there are some downsides. One is the fact you can't reset the odometer unless you havw the company's crappy, and rather sketchy, mobile app. The other thing I've noticed is that the gears slip when I'm going up a steep hill. This might be my own doing because I keep the gears at the lowest setting but I am not entirely sure. I personally don't ever having these types of issues on a regular bicycle. The other thing that sort of stinks is the weight. If you have to go up stairs, like I do, to get it in and out of the house then the weight of the bike is killer. Overall it is a really good purchase. Despite the negatives the price is just too good if you're looking for aan e-bike that can fit into a small storage space and still get you too and from your destinations with no problem. And when compared to other E-bikes, the price is just worth it in the end.

Amazing. One downside, but not really their fault
I've just gotten this, I've only put 12+ miles on it and that doesn't seem to register on the battery yet. I've been using lots of motor, levels 3-5, for all that riding. I'm happy with the power & speed. I don't love the motor control: this is my first ebike so maybe I'm being picky. The power levels, 0-5, really equate to the top speed (top pure-motor is around 23 mph). Whether that's triggered by pedaling, or twisting the throttle, it turns on pretty abruptly and plows forward. So there is no nuanced speed control: if I want to slow down for a sharp corner, I either brake (thereby turning off the motor), and/or I switch to a lower power level, which is inconveniently done with the left thumb. That all makes it finicky in city traffic, to me. I wish the throttle worked like a motorcycle, variable speed. That said, it's all new to me, and I expect to get better at it. There might even be settings or something I can change. Note that if I go into that corner having braked, but not having turned down the speed, and then pedal little, it will snap back on which can feel quite dangerous in a corner. Again, this may be user error, maybe there's a better way to do corners/slowdowns. The big downside that I hadn't accounted for is how wide the frame hinge/lock mechanism is. The first time I rode it I smashed my knees into it whenever I pedaled, which was excruciating. I put some padding (cardboard) over the joint, and the problem went away: no sharp metal edges, and my knees sort of gently slid against it. I'm going to figure out a better strategy, probably just prettier padding. I expect to be peddling most of the time, so that needs to work for me. I briefly thought about returning it if I couldn't work around that, but 1) that's the cost of foldability, and 2) I think it's really important to be foldable, for me. Many people could probably live with 20" wheels, which would move that joint much lower depending on the design. I really like the 26" wheels, though frankly the bike feels gargantuan. Which is fine. The major reason I got this is to commute and run errands. I wish it came with integral wheel locks and a key on/off switch, but none of them do as far as I can tell. I think I'll get 1-2 disk brake locks for the wheels. I may try to rig some way to disable the power to it. I like that the battery is locked in. It is heavy, but I can carry it briefly: it is very unwieldy, especially when folded. There's a welded-on bracket underneath the that protects that sprocket, which reduces the clearance by around 2" I think. It's just the size to get in the way pushing it up or down stairs, which is really tedious. I might cut it off. That said, if you misjudged and bottomed the bike out on it's sprocket, something would break, and it could be your bottom bracket there's so much weight involved, so I appreciate the sentiment. It went together very easily. The headlight was a pain, but that's mostly b/c I mixed up the bolts. It's a somewhat finicky bracket design, and way larger than it needs to be, but bright enough I think and solidly mounted. The rear light seems nice and bright too. The seat light is powered by a little battery, and it's very easy to trigger when you grab the seat, so I expect to run that battery out in no time. I may add more lights, but this is a very good start. When bolting on the rack (it comes 1/2 installed, you just have to swing it down and install two bolts), take some large pliers or a crescent wrench and gently twist the tabs a bit before you install the bolts. It's quite easy to get good alignment with the frame, but those tabs arrive straight instead of angled (with the frame), and you wouldn't want to install it without better alignment between the frame and those tabs. If it weren't so easy to fix, I would subtract 1/4 star for that. It took 30 seconds. Just do it. The rack is amazing. I mean, I haven't actually used it, but it seems insanely solid. I had expected to swap out the seat b/c I'm very picky, but I'm enjoying it's comfy plushness, so maybe not. So far, I love it. My only durable complaint is the lack of nuanced real-time speed control. As I learn more about that, maybe I'll get used to it, or maybe I'll try to figure out how to install a different controller, which would be a huge task. I will try to rig some disable switch: without removing the battery, I don't think there's anything stopping someone from coming up, turning it on, and spinning up the rear wheel, which would not go well if there were disc brake locks installed. So yeah. It's a great bike for the price. Good workmanship. The horn is probably good for traffic, but too loud for pedestrians: I'll get a little ding-bell so I don't scare people out of their pants. Oh, the brakes in combo with the big tires are powerful. It feels like I can stop as fast as I dare. It's a g-force thing. I expect to add panniers for grocery shopping (looking at these: https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B0C7FS24PJ/ref=ewc_pr_img_2?smid=A2YNSTVTK080NE&psc=1) and I already ordered puncture-resistant tire liners: the tires are very soft and flexible, and I worry that they wouldn't last through all the crap I ride through and over in the city. I'll probably put on heavier tires when I replace them, but I'll probably ride these until they're spent. They are very sticky/conformable, so fantastic incredible traction. The shocks, which I don't yet know how to adjust, are cushy. It takes speed bumps better than my car. The combo of the big tires and shocks makes this a really great city bike: no matter what road situation I might get forced into (potholes, curbs...), I stand a better chance of surviving surprises on this than any bike I've ever ridden. That frees up road-surface-attention for situational awareness. This is part of why I got 26" wheels, less susceptibility to small-object encounters, and I immediately noticed that I spend less energy trying to see every detail of the road ahead. If I smack into an unseen speed bump, the jolt won't be fun but I will probably keep on trucking just fine. I'll probably add more later. So far so good.

So far i am very impressed with this Ebike. I have pushed it to its limits and found that it performs very well. The distance so far has been very good in a single charge. I found i needed to keep battery inside as i live in Canada and it gets cold. 100% recommend!! Also customer service so far has been very good!

I really enjoyed driving around the city. It handles the sidewalks to curves great. go off-road. Love it lots of power once you kick front wheel inn

This bike is quite heavy, weighing nearly 100 lbs. It performs very well and is comfortable for me at 6' 4". I can easily achieve 160 km on a single charge, primarily on level ground. As a mechanic with around 40 years of experience, I found that it took over 1.5 hours to assemble. It is quite awkward to put together alone.

As advertised, got to admit i was thinking there is no way. i easily drove though a 16 inch deep snow drift that was 8 ft long. tires set to 15psi at 28c. Hit 25kph in 4in of powder with ice underneath. gets better traction than cars. went up a steep hill, that cars were struggling on no problem., was at 30kph by the top. 3 cars after me could not get up the hill. they work with me and said they lost grip and had to go another way. Parked outside in a -10c blizzard for 10 hours on low battery, drove home 4km no problem. some cons: heavy, battery alone is about 40lbs. Carrier rack got bent slightly in shipping., because 2 bolts are attached and 2 are not, i would suggest either attaching all or none of the bolts for shipping. bent it back. It is long, and steering angle is limited.. Honestly impressed overall. Update: after riding this for 80km in snowy conditions. i can say this bike is very capable in rough conditions. Some drivers have complained about headlight being too bright, doesn't seem to be giving me much light while riding. in slush it wants to hydroplane a bit, and throws water way out to the side, probably the knobby tires. still love it. can't wait for summer.
