Electric Bike for Adults, 26'' 1000W Peak Ebike, Up to 50 Miles 21.7MPH Electric Mountain Bike with 48V 374.4WH Removable Battery, Adjustable Stem, Fenders, Lockable Suspension Fork, 21-Speed

I just purchased two of these bikes for my wife and I. For context we both had cheap Walmart bikes as kids/teens but never an electric bike.I was a little overwhelmed by the number of options out there and I saw a YouTube review of this bike and it seemed decent so I decided to just buy the cheapest ones. Our bikes cost just under $500 each after taxes and shipping.So far only one bike has arrived but it came a day early so hopefully the other one is still on the way but they shipped with FedEx so who knows.Honest review of the bike - The bike itself is about the same quality as a cheap $200 Walmart bike. The shifters feel cheap, and you can tell the bike was made out of heavier but cheaper materials. That being said before shipping it only cost $50 - $100 more than those cheap Walmart bikes so not a big surprise and it is still very rideable even without the electric turned on it’s just made of cheaper materials and I’m not planning on getting more than a couple years out of it before I have to replace it but for the price that’s OK.As for the electronic part it actually has more power than I anticipated. Even on the lowest setting the pedal assist provides a very noticeable boost and when turned all the way up to five you can pedal up some pretty big steep hills at 10 or 15 miles an hour without hardly breaking a sweat. For reference we live in the foothills of North Carolina near the Blue Ridge mountains so we have a lot of hills.The headlight and fenders are more of a gimmick. They do function, but I chose not to use the fender on my bike as I don’t like the look and the headlight isn’t that bright but it does work.Assembling the bike was pretty straightforward though I did accidentally put the handlebars on upside down the first time. The directions were very easy to follow and it came with all of the necessary tools and hardware.Overall I can see why someone would spend more money on a higher quality bike as some of the components are cheap and I really don’t expect this bike to last me more than a couple years, but for the price I think it’s great and has lots of power and it is a great first bike for someone like me who knows nothing about the e-bikes.If you don’t purchase this bike and decide to purchase something more powerful I would recommend making sure that you purchased something with hydraulic brakes. This bike does not have hydraulic brakes just the regular cable brakes and they work fine, but when you’re going fast or down a hill it feels a little sketchy. The bike is limited to 20 miles an hour but that just means the motor stops helping you after you exceed 20 miles an hour. When you crest a hill already doing 20 miles an hour and then shoot downhill you can easily get this bike up to 35 miles an hour or more by peddling as hard as you can down the steep hill. On paper that sounds like a good idea and like it would be fun but in reality it’s very scary on a bicycle with cheap brakes. Of course the obvious solution is just to not go that fast but I’m just saying if you get a faster bike than this make sure you have hydraulic brakes.Sorry for the long review but I couldn’t find a lot of information before purchasing this bike and a lot of the reviews looked fake to me so I wanted to leave something with some real information for anybody trying to make a decision. As long as you’re OK with replacing it in a couple years I would say go ahead and just buy this bike. In a couple years time you can spend more money on something better and you’ll know what you want after getting some experience with this cheap one!

The ebike didn’t arrive fully assembled, and I had to install a few parts. It wasn’t challenging, but I made some errors, like installing the front wheel on the wrong side. I noticed that the braking cable crossed the handle post, so I had to dismount and remount it correctly with the front wheel brake and the braking cable on the same side. I also installed the front light and fender incorrectly. I missed where the manual said to install it all in one place in front of the holding mount, and I ended up placing the light in front and the fender at the back of it. I later realized this mistake. Additionally, the bike comes with a front and rear reflector, as well as one on each wheel, but it doesn’t have a rear light. I installed one myself to increase visibility.Further, I tested the front light as instructed by the user manual. To do so, I had to turn on the ebike, but the manual doesn’t mention how to do that at the point of installation. Yes, there is a red switch on the battery, but it took me a few minutes to figure out that I had to press and hold the power button on the LCD display as well. The manual should at least mention where to find the instructions on how to turn the ebike on or mention this early in the assembly section, not 5 pages further in on page 15 under Display Controls. Still, I managed to complete the setup of the bike after these minor hurdles. The bike includes front and rear disc brakes, 26-inch wheels, a locking front shock absorber, and a headlight. It weighs 49.6 lb, according to the manual. Despite its weight, I can reach over 21 mph in less than 10 seconds.Afterward, I wanted to charge the battery but saw that it was almost fully charged, so it took me less than one hour to fully charge it. The LCD Display, in my opinion, functions like a bike computer, providing quite a lot of information. I can see the odometer, voltage data of the battery, the distance of a single trip, battery status, and assist level, which is the current power assist level. To increase the pedal assist level, I press the plus button, and to decrease it, I press the minus button. I can toggle between the odometer, trip distance, and voltage by short-pressing the power button. It’s from the LCD Display that I can also turn the headlight on and off and sound the horn, which is quite similar to a car horn. I can even adjust the brightness of the backlight and set the bike to turn off automatically after a certain period of inactivity, ranging from 0 minutes (meaning it stays on continuously) to 60 minutes. I can also reset the odometer.After learning all these controls, I got familiar with the ebike's five riding modes: Bicycle Mode, Pedal Assist Mode, Throttle Mode, Cruise Mode, and Booster Mode. In Bicycle Mode, I can pedal the bike normally without turning on the LCD display - it’s equal to riding a regular bike. In Pedal Assist Mode, the motor provides extra power as I pedal. I can choose from five levels of pedal assist, depending on how much assistance I want, and the bike always starts at level 0 to avoid any accidents that might occur if I accidentally twist the throttle. To use Throttle Mode, I turn on the LCD display and select a level. Then, I just twist the throttle to control my speed without pedaling. If I want to maintain a steady speed, I press and hold the minus button when I’m going faster than 6.2 mph. When the display flashes the P icon, Cruise Mode is on, and the bike will maintain that speed. However, if I twist the throttle or apply the brakes, Cruise Mode automatically turns off. Booster Mode allows the bike to move at a speed of no more than 4.2 mph when I activate it by long-pressing the minus button. The display will show the P icon again, and like with Cruise Mode, Booster Mode turns off if I squeeze the brake.I quickly realized how much the ebike improves my daily commute. I use it to avoid public transit since I can easily reach my workplace by riding through safe residential streets and roads. My commute is now less hectic than dealing with crowded or late buses. Riding the ebike also saves me money. I no longer need to spend on public transport, and when compared to driving, I save on gas as well. I don’t miss the stress of finding parking or sitting in traffic jams, either. Plus, the ebike gives me a bit of exercise without overexerting myself. I find that using Pedal Assist Mode lets me control how much effort I want to put in.I always use the bike for short trips. I’ve started using it for running errands, like quick grocery trips or visiting downtown. It's a relief I don't have to worry about traffic or parking. When I’m riding on longer, uninterrupted stretches of road, I often switch to Cruise Mode. It keeps my speed steady, and I can relax without constantly having to adjust the throttle or pedals. In my experience, the ebike is intuitive to use.Nonetheless, there’s a bit of routine maintenance that I do to keep the bike running safely, particularly with the battery. I charge it after each ride fully, although it rarely drains completely since I’m not using the motor at full power all the time. I noticed it charges quickly. Most of the time, the battery reaches full charge in a few hours. Additionally, once a month, I discharge the battery completely before recharging it, as instructed by the manual. I hope this maintenance step prolongs the battery’s life and keeps it working optimally on every ride. So far, two months have passed, and I haven't experienced any issue while riding.

My first e bike and i can say it is a lot of fun to ride but I have a few issues with itHandles bar instructions are not very clear on how to install correctly or what orientation you should strive for.If you have big feet like men's size 12+, the kickstand will catch your heel if you are not carefulThe battery indicator on the controls and on the battery don't match up. The battery was delivered full on the battery itself, but the controls have shown half. haven't recharged it yet after 9 miles from delivery so that may change.The bike seat is not the most comfortable for a above average(200llb) guy and will probably replace it.the pedal assist is very aggressive at all levels and hard to predict when it will turn on.Other then that i have enjoyed the bike immensely, the cruise mod is very useful when playing mobile games like pokemon go or monster hunter now. the throttle is very responsive and i love being able to throttle a bit to get going without the acquired ramp up from stop on normal bikes.
