I also mentioned in the other thread that the controller and all the power and wiring is in an unsealed outlet box under the bike with two huge holes cut on the sides for the wires to get frayed on. Also, one big puddle could fill this box with water. I ordered rubber grommets for 5 bucks, and will install with a little silicone when they come in to seal them. I just wanted all of you to be aware since most of you won't realize rhis.
I feel this bike is the modern day equivalent of the classic red scooter. The pedals work for shorter people, but it's so heavy, it's really not realistic to equate it as a 'moutain bike'. I think it's meant for urban uses such as the guy on YouTube doing doordash.
All parts were included and arrived as described on the product page. The front and rear brake were calibrated correctly on arrival. The rear derailleur was also per-calibrated out of the box. Assembly involves mounting the handlebars, mounting the rear rack, attaching the front wheel, attaching front and rear lights, and affixing the pedals. The bike comes with all the tools required for assembly. Assembly took roughly 30-40 minutes on my front porch. The shifter and derailleur are branded Shimano parts.
The bike is quick! I weigh 200lbs (91kg) and the bike gets up to speed within 2-4 seconds on pedal assist setting 3. With a 200lb rider the bike seems to max out at 22 miles per hour on flat ground. The bike shifts easily through it's 7 pedal gears. At maximum speed you will not be able to add power to the bike with the pedals, you will be spinning the pedals or 'ghost pedaling' on pedal assist setting 3; even in the highest gear. This is true of basically all e-bikes that reach this speed.
I am 5'10" (178cm) and the bike fits me, but I feel I am toward the maximum height to ride comfortably. Exercise caution if you are > 6' tall.
I have not tested the range or charging speed yet.
The brakes work, but they are mechanical brakes. Exercise caution on a bike this heavy with mechanical brakes, because they do not stop the bike immediately. They slow down the bike and bring it to a gradual stop over a short distance.
If you order this bike you should immediately take action to weatherproof the controller. The controller is in a compartment beneath the battery. The wires that come out of this compartment are run through completely unsealed holes. These holes expose the very sensitive electronic controller to potential atmospheric dust and water. The compartment is also placed in a way that is likely to cause the rear wheel to splash puddle water into the wire hole. This repair should done IMMEDIATELY after you construct the bike. Leaving this hole unsealed will destroy your bike eventually.
Personally, I am in love with this quick little bike. It is an great value for the price. The quality of the frame and the overall care that was obviously put into it's production and shipping genuinely surprised me. I don't understand how they can sell such a well constructed bike, with a 13AH battery, and a powerful 750W motor for the price I paid. I guess economies of scale really produce wonders.
That's the review I would have left on ali-express if they allowed more than 1000 characters. I will have to whittle it down. Just wanted to share my experience with other slick-deals users. I am not affiliated with slick-deals or ali-express or urlife in any way. I hope this is helpful to anyone considering this deal.

Read the fine prints:
1.2 This standard does not evaluate the performance or reliability of these devices.
Pay some $ to get a cert, but the cert does not ensure that the product cannot fail. There are many variable that cause a battery to fail/explode. Number one cause is excessive voltage, current, and heat generated during charging. These variables are controlled by the charger. A good designer will also add sensors to monitor battery temperature. Fast charging is convenient for the user. Downside is lower safety factor and reduced battery life.

1. PAS only has 3 levels (1–3), and even level 1 feels way too strong. I'd love to have 5 levels with a much weaker level 1.
2. The PAS sensitivity is super high. Just a tiny pedal movement kicks in the assist, which gets annoying and dangerous.
I didn't find a way in the advanced settings to effectively improve them. Eventually, I disconnected the PAS sensor from the controller so I could use the throttle to provide the assistance safely based on the tip from another SDer.
I also bought $299 Huffy Coastal Cruiser ebike [huffy.com] and like that better. Compared with URLIFE E20, it has both pros and cons:
Pros: Lighter. UL 2849 certified. Better control of PAS. 5 levels of PAS. Warranty you can depend on
Cons: Single speed. Weaker battery. Weaker motor. No fender on either wheel
Battery degradation or process contamination can manifest as internal shorts, resulting in excessive heat and fire. UL does not evaluate this failure mode!

Do your brakes squeal constantly? or only when you use them? If they squeal constantly, they are adjusted too tight. if they squeal only when you pull the brake handle, they simply need to break in the pads to the rotors, ( Meaning that the brake pad surface needs to wear exactly to match the rotor surface, or these surfaces are dirty)
With the stock brakes, the fine adjust is the little knob and lock nut on the brake handle.
if the knob is already screwed in all the way, this requires a little harder step of loosening the cable clamp on the caliper, and giving the cable just a little tiny Itty bit of slack, retightening, then screwing the fine adjust on the brake handle out ( And the lock nut to lock it) when desired brake tension is made.
This is only done when the brakes are constantly squealing even when not using them.
The only other factor I can think of that will make the brakes squeal when not using them is if the rotor is bent. If the rotor is bent, simply bend it back, or replace the rotor, Rotors are less than 10 dollars, but are size specific, The back rotor is more difficult to change since changing rotors requires you to take the wheel off.
