Bought a Vorsa last year, so far so good. The battery is great, I've gotten 50-60 miles out of mine easily (on fairly flat terrain though) when starting at 100% charge. First thing to know, the front shock is absolutely not sufficient for hard use, which they do point out -- this is no MTB. Controls are solid, easy to read/see, brakes work well. It's heavy, so if you are going to be regularly carrying your e-bike up stairs, maybe consider a lighter model. The tires it came with were sub-par in every way. The sidewalls were so thin that the tire was practically coming off the rim on hard turns. I swapped them out for Maxxis Hookworms and it rides like a different bike after the upgrade. For the price, I do think this bike delivers a lot of features and I have no regrets buying it. R1U: put better tires on this thing

My Roadster V3 arrived on time and in good condition. I had a hard time deciding between the belt drive and gears version but opted for gears. The bike is relatively light at 43 lbs. The pedal assist works well but the throttle was not working. Tech support was very responsive and quickly sent a new cable and controller. The bike is comfortable and rides nicely.

Great bike but had immediate issues with the rear brake not working and a flat tire less than 3 months after purchase. Ok instructions on set. Now that the bugs are worked out the bike is really nice to ride.

I am a happy owner of Ride1Up Revv1DRT. I can’t say enough great things about this E bike. First off, it looks so bad ass! Second, it’s built like a tank. The build quality is outstanding. And for what you get, it’s a steal at this price point. If you’re considering getting one, all I can say is do it. You will not regret it. I live in the northeast, so unfortunately, there’s still a lot of snow in the ground and the temperature is very cold so I’m unable to enjoy riding my E bike. I cannot wait till the snow melts and it gets warmer so I can enjoy riding my E bike again. I encourage you to invest in one. I have no doubt that you will be glad that you did. And you will have many many many hours of enjoyment writing this incredible E bike.

We ordered 2 bikes, Roadster V3s, one is the Low-Step and one the chain version. My first eBike, I really like my Roadster V3, the pedal assist is so cool, as well as the throttle. (I'm a road cyclist, but love taking the slower route, rides with my wife and friends). I Love the bikes, but the wife's(Low-Step) was not low enough for her. She's not a real confident cyclist, she didn't like that the Low-Step was not Low enough. So we went thru the process of returning hers. Thru it all, Customer Service was great, responsive and helpful. (also, I had ordered the rear rack for mine, and it didn't fit correctly, needed 2 longer screws - they agreed and sent them right out to me. Apparently this rack fit on the previous V2 version, but not the V3. Got it all worked out). The bike itself really takes off, and I like that it really doesn't 'look' like an eBike - the battery does not give it away.

We have truly enjoyed our first ebike experience riding our Portolas. Ebikes certainly require more maintenance so it's helpful to be mechanically inclined. But we get so much in return. And given the 7" difference in our heights, we are very impressed with how comfortable each of us is while riding.

Fair price, well built bikes, simple and clear instructions and videos. No pushy marketing or excessive hype.

I’ve had my racer1 bike for a bit less than 2 years and I absolutely love it. It’s light so I can ride it totally on my own and if I’m going with my husband we can go at the same pace. I’ve gone as far as 44 miles and about 2,000 ft of climbing and still have half the battery left. That would be using assist 1 or 2. Very little on others unless there’s a super steep hill. I weigh 120lbs. The only complaints are that you can’t remove the back wheel, it’s attached by a short cable which makes changing a tube very difficult. And also the fact that is shrader. My husband change it to tubular to make it easier. And also the fact that they don’t make smaller sizes, I’m barely fitting into the small size. I’m 5’3” and I’m a bit stretched.
