I am in love with this!! I stalled a little bit putting it together because i was worried it would be really hard, but i was very wrong. It took me like 10 minutes to put together. It has taken me way long to build a normal bike. The instructions are very clear, and only a handful of steps. The electric motor, is surprisingly light, and it did not take long at all to charge. Then you simple place in the holder, turn it on and then power on the bike; easy! It allows you to peddle and do the motor, or completely motorized, which is my favorite setting! It has gears and brakes like a standard bike, but just also a motor button. The bike also has a light in the front, that you can turn in with the same controls you use to power on the bike. It goes as fast as expected, and battery life lasts as long as described and is a blast to ride! I like that i can ride it like normal but then when i’m too tired to make it back home because i went too far, It’ll drive me home! This is so much fun, and extra nice when its too hot out. Plus the bike looks real cool lol

Wow what a fun ebike!! I have been having a blast on this thing, riding every bike trail that I can find and every street without traffic. It is powerful and seems very well made. I am shocked that this ebike only cost me $2379. For the price-quality, this is a serious steal. I am only 5’2” so the 20” fat tires make this bike the perfect size for me. I ride upright on this ebike, but I think most adults would be leaning forward while riding. That’s something to keep in mind when figuring out what riding position is most comfortable for you.

Nice packaging, was very easy to assemble, delivery was fast, i ordered on Friday and got it this morning, so excited i mounted it so fast and went out for my first ride, it feels so confident and comfortable riding this bike, and taking edges, riding with so much fun and almost no stress, still can’t believe i spent less than $2000 to get it.
