Yes, with studded tires not an issue.

I am throwing a cheap air fork on it with a 29 er.

Mullet time!

It's going to suffer from the same bike traction issues?

Am I crazy or is it kind of hard to go wrong at this price point? I've been trying to convince my parents they'd ride their bikes more if they had e-bikes. Even if I turned out to be wrong, I guess I could save myself having to pack my own e-bike for when I go to visit them (2 hrs away). Unless they're outright fabricating the battery capacity, that alone is worth at least $200 as some others have pointed out.

Iirc 27" bikes are almost all large/extra large. I'd assume those under 5'8 will not fit comfortably
This needs to stop. Wheel size has NOTHING to do with frame size.

Quote from JoshuaS2746 :
The bike weight is my concern too. What's this thing made of. Price is steller however. I'd probably not use a warranty but might be worth it if I send this off with my kid to use at college.
I currently have a Buzz Bike [It's a Huffy brand] that I got for this price from SD back in May which is the only reason I'm not jumping on this deal. It weighs 38 pounds and is considered 'light' for an ebike, also very small frame and 20 inch wheels. The Buzz one doesn't have disc brakes, lights, or an LCD screen. eBikes just weigh a lot. You will not want to ride this without the assist on.

Kinda hate the color, but I suppose that's fixable, if they actually ship the thing at this price. I suppose we'll find out in January (or earlier in case of mass cancellations).

I think you need to reread what I was responding to.


I know this bike has free shipping. The bike the other poster was asking about does not.

Quote from dabomb156 :
From the research I've done from YouTube/Google reviews, the price isn't bad for the quality, even at their $600 price. Sure, it's not a mid-drive with a hydraulic brake system, but for an ebike with a throttle, this is cheaper than a pedal bike which is insane to me. This is the second best selling eBike on Amazon, I wonder why and how they are able to sell these for so cheap.
Printer companies like HP, Lexmark, Canon, Brother don't make money selling printers, they make their profit selling ink. Guess how much the battery replacement is going to cost you every 2-3years. That's residual income baby.

I missed out on the $500 RadRunner last year and regretted it ever since. Not as good as that deal but at for half the RadRunner's price, and with Amazon backing it, it's close in my book. In 4 1.

Somene said earlier that the returns are really difficult esp due to its size. I'm in for 1 myself with the paid warranty.
