Deal History
Deal History includes data from multiple reputable stores, such as Best Buy, Target, and Walmart. The lowest price among stores for a given day is selected as the "Sale Price".
Sale Price does not include sale prices at Amazon unless a deal was posted by a community member.
For the price, it's a steal. It has a breakaway power cable, so if you get a flat tire on the back wheel, that will save you a lot of trouble. My first ebike didn't have that, and it was a nightmare.
The worst I can say is that this bike will make you crave more. You'll want faster, farther, and lighter, but you'll have to pay 2.5 times as much.
I have this bike and love it! Great battery and mileage and power. Attached to my bike is an infant/toddler seat and a trailer. Sometimes, I would haul around 3 kids going up very steep hills, and the bike has not let us down. It's worked so well that I never feel like I'm getting a workout.
However, the brakes need some adjustment on a monthly basis. It's an easy task if you has basic bike maintenance skills.

Alright bike experts, tell me why this bike is terrible and will probably kill me.

You can look on Facebook marketplace or craigslist and buy a better 500-750w used Ecotric for about $300. Much better components and power/battery. This is barebone ebike and the assist is so weak if you are going on hilly roads.
Depending upon how far this bike can actually go on a charge, it could be a great deal... but I guarantee you'll want to throw it into the ocean with the rest of the ewaste the second you have to pedal it's 51lbs frame anywhere.

I never see them that cheap. Most are 600+ unless it a used Walmart ebike,😅.
Second you can never tell the condition of the batter from a short test ride. It show full but have only 15 minute ride time. Now what you going to do? Spend another 500+ on a good, safe and reliable battery?

I also own this bike....black version. I'm a large guy and this thing has plenty of power and range. Overall very decent quality and looks like a 1k plus bike. One issue is phantom shifting when hitting top speed, bit overall a great e bike
I got the commuter as well couple of weeks back - if you have friends/family, don't buy it.
My wife loves it and wants to claim this as her bike.
It's a lot of fun despite criticism from fancy bike devotees
