I have used my e-bicycle consistently now for about 2 months. I am limited to walking short distance so this has helped me manage mostly short distances such as parking lots and train stations. I once took it for a longer ride and almost got stuck without battery since I learned that even slight hills eat up the battery pretty up quick. Easy to fold up and put in car. As others have mentioned, I get a lot of attention riding around on this and many have asked questions. Only wish this device was cleared to use as a medical mobility device in airports and on planes. Had to buy another device to do that.
The battery definitely does not last as long as advertised and it has an extremely disappointing lack of power when it comes to going up even the slightest incline or hill. It also doesn't even go 10 mph on flat surface and I only weigh about 140lbs so. Otherwise it's great for what it is but I would recommend weighing 100lbs or less
Idk the second day charged up twice it certainly did not go 15 miles my roommate took it to Cort a mile away and it didn't make it home! He's a big guy so I'm praying that's why and here in Utah it is winter bit I'd better see better results damit.
I love the bike and I always get looks whenever riding it around downtown, but I just wish it had a speedometer so I knew how fast I waw actually going and maybe some turn signals would be cool.
