One time use coupon, but found a $15 coupon for the second one if you want to get a pair. 15USAFF

I got a pair, see what happens, they are slow and basic (20mph allegedly), but the 15ah battery if actual capacity makes up for it a bit. Will report back if I actually get around to it.

They have ul certification the ones that burned down people's houses are the ones that people made diy kits put together by someone who don't know what's what. people need to understand technology not fear it. everything has batteries in it. use charges that ain't meant for it. It's got the same safety features as your toaster does but you don't hear people ranting and raving about how the refrigerator burns down the house. it's not like you get to work and be like oh my God I need to run home I left the air fryer plugged in. cuz air fryers cause fires too

Community Reviews

The UPlee GS3 is a compact folding 14 inch e bike that stands out for low price and easy storage, with the folded bike fitting in a sedan trunk or back seat. The 15Ah version is reported to stretch range better than the 8Ah pack, especially with pedal assist, and the bike is light enough to move around despite weighing over 60 pounds. The main tradeoffs are shaky build quality, inconsistent battery and power claims, and frequent setup issues with the front wheel and brake alignment. It looks like a budget commuter or short ride option if you are comfortable doing some tinkering.

Common Questions (5)

  • Front-wheel assembly can be confusing because the bike ships with a black placeholder rod that should not be used; the stainless steel rod with the hook is the one that locks the wheel in place. The spacer order also matters, and the front brake caliper may need adjustment if the rotor rubs.

    kickerstarterDNA1010DNA1010kickerstarter

  • The battery and power claims are repeatedly described as overstated, with the 15Ah pack reportedly behaving more like an 8Ah battery. The practical concern is that advertised capacity may not match real-world runtime.

    dimberezkickerstarterAmusedCalendar866

  • The 8Ah battery is expected to cover about 11 to 26 miles, depending on how much you use throttle versus pedal assist. Heavier throttle use shortens range, while more pedal assist stretches it.

    SkillfulBike1872

  • The listing is questioned as possibly being 350W rated with 500W peak rather than a true 500W continuous motor. That matters for bigger riders because a true 500W setup should hold speed and hill-climbing better under load.

    Okielydokiely

  • Yes. It weighs over 60 lbs, but when folded it fits in the back seat or trunk of a sedan.

I would like to know too. Not a lot of detailed reviews out there. Mostly I like it or fear mongering about it burning down your house.

You can reasonably expect to ride between 11 to 26 miles on the 8Ah battery, 14 to 32 miles on the 10Ah battery, and 21 to 48 miles on the 15Ah battery, depending heavily on your use of the throttle versus pedal assist.

There's a few reviews on YouTube type GS3 Ebike. I'm in for one. Want it for my mom but I'll test it out first make sure it's not too torquey. She used to ride motorcycles so she should be fine but her doctor told her she should bike ride at the gym. I'm hopping the pedal assist is good enough so she can enjoy a nice beach ride.

I got one of these exact ones a month ago but I picked the bigger battery option for an extra $20. To be honest it's really solid for what it cost. Just be aware it over 60lbs but a lot of extra weight is because it folds. Once it does it fits in the back seat or trunk of my sedan.

"Gongy road"?
"Gongy" (often spelled Gongyi) refers to several dramatic, winding mountain roads located in Gongyi City, Zhengzhou, Henan Province, China. These routes have gained massive popularity on travel platforms and social media for their thrilling hairpin turns, high elevations, and access to scenic vistas.

I bought one. $185 shipped for the 15Ah. There's 2 videos on Youtube, search for GS3 Ebike. Looks descent for the price, however I am a little worried that it seems they're liquidating scooters and ebikes this week. I hope it's not because of Faulty batteries.
