I purchased the same bike less than one month ago i am at 830 miles on it so far and the biggest sign of wear and tear i have is on the back brakes longest ride was 2 days ago and it was a 60 mile ride on a full charge i am only 120 pounds my advice is if you want to get the most out of our battery to use the lower levels of PAS instead of going to max speed and you will more get mileage on a full battery
That's good advice for most e bikes. I generally go by the rule of only using top speeds when you're gonna keep that speed and momentum, so not speeding up and braking too much
@@carstarsarstenstesenn if you are just looking for a cruiser not for transportation it should be fine hight wise it's good the peddles are a little close to the ground so they scrape on turns occasionally and all the hardware needs to be tightened But if you are close to or over the weight limit the battery only last 10-15 miles unless you're riding on flat roads
i appreciate this review, was just looking at this bike online and wasn't confident in getting it. now i am! your review is the only detailed one! thanks for the video
Great video I’m about to walk in and buy it next week is it still working well? Also who cares about the extra 10-15 mph I’m just sick of sweating before work 😅
Great review. You answered pretty much every question I had. But you’re gonna wish you left the mud flap on the first time you ride through standing water lol
Nice review. If you're 6'4", though ,why is the seat so low? Your knees won't last unless you raise the seat up so your knee is almost straight when your pedal is at the bottom.
This is the best review on this bike I have come cross . However, do you have to pedal for the bike to coast or you don’t have to pedal for the bike to coast. Basically, can the bike coast with no pedaling
I bought this bike from Walmart a couple days ago. The most trouble we had was with the installation of the front tire. It was 100% our fault because we tried installing without the quick release. DO NOT FORGET THE QUICK RELEASE when installing. Otherwise, it did come with a full battery charge so I rode it right away. This is my first e-bike. I love it! There are plenty of settings. Once you hit that plus button, the bike immediately switches to pedal assist. Start pedaling and you are on your way!
Really appreciate the review been thinking about picking one up but I'm 6 ft 2 240 lb so I was worried it wouldn't be big enough but I honestly might end up picking it up later today
I was looking at one of these and already was wondering if there will be a battery upgrade to help range. I am sure someone will have one soon. Walmart won't be able to keep them in stock.
If youre mostly flatland riding on pavement, why would you require any shock absorption beyond the size of the tires? Shocks are really only necessary for bumps like potholes....
I own this (exact) same bike. I'm 6'0 / 223 lbs, & I gotta say that in my opinion: You will NOT be having any serious issues. Perhaps a bit slower take-off speed, & if your going up a super steep incline (like where I live in the hills) sometimes I prefer just jumping off the bike & walking it up to the top of the hill just so I don't 'over-work' the motor or drain the battery any quicker than it needs to. Also, I would probably just say to make sure you always keep the tires full of air so you can maximize your movement.
i have a step thru but pretty much the same bike, great bike but if your looking for speed this is not that and no water bottle holder or mount. besides that fun and cheap for the 500-600$
I am interested in buying the same bike. I would like to know if pedal assist is set at lowest level 1, do you actually get any exercise in riding the bike?
Walmart did have the best value for e-bikes but the prices have come down on enormously for almost all your bikes... A Walmart bike is the bottom of the barrel .
