I got my bike a bout two weeks ago. It is awesome. I ride it pretty much every day. The hammer is a big bike, so it may not work well if you are short, but I'm 6'1" 230 lbs. It is comfortable and has a lot of power. This bike is a beast.

The beach cruiser style gives you a comfortable upright riding position. The components all seem to be high quality (Shimano SIS shifters etc). I pedal a lot when I ride, and I get easily 30-40 miles to a battery. This is good because it is pretty hilly where I ride. I try to use electric on the uphill only. I rarely go past level 3 of 5 on pedal assist.

I had a few setup issues, I stripped a bolt on the stem and the speedometer didn't work. They responded very quickly and sent new parts right away. Customer service is great, usually within 24 hours response to emails. Other than that assembly was fairly easy. There are you tube videos out there that I recommend checking out if you are not familiar with bike repair.
I would highly reccomend this bike. It is a blast to ride.

I bought an e-bike from another company and I was not happy. I researched and even test drove this one and I liked it. It is amazing to ride. Everyone who test drives the Hammer wants to buy one.

Fun to ride. Great for dark roads (ran over a huge chunk of rock in the dark and kept going OK). Rolls over most gravel, grass, sand, snow. Perfect winter commute bicycle, they call it 'The Beast' at work.

Weather finally broke here to allow some riding, Winter was long. South Western Pennsylvania. Good: Bike runs well. Plenty of power and battery life. Shifter works smoothly and disc brakes provide plenty of stopping power. Bikes suspension carried me well off road. I am 255lb. Mixed surface rides have included, paved, crushed limestone 'rails to trails', and off road dirt trails. Optional rear rack very sturdy. Bad: Optional fenders were not sufficient on wet surface, I had to put extenders on front and back to keep myself and bike dry. Most important was the bottom of the rear fender, without extension road dirt was being thrown into and accumulating in electrical box near pedal sprocket. Had to open box and clean out debris. Fender extension stopped that issue. Wanted to seal the holes in electrical box but assumed they provided some cooling. Also handlebar gooseneck was not sufficient in OEM form, I had to run a longer bolt with a nut to get it tight enough that handlebars would not slip. Factory bolt was cross threaded and stripped before I could get it tight enough. I also filed grooves on handlebar and inside of gooseneck to increase friction to stop the slipping. Summary: Bike performed well. Would recommend. Just be prepared to extend fenders if wet riding. Hopefully my cross threaded stripped gooseneck bolt was a fluke from the factory.

Nicely surprised at what you get for the money. As I reviewed the market not much separates the manufacturers; most all components and electronics are the same source some re-branded. The frame is well built i.e. the welds and material are good. The options are what set this bike out for the price; Shimano components, 48v 13AH battery, 48v motor-controller with PAS and Throttle, 48v 1000 watt motor hub, Smart LCD display, Tektro Hydraulic Disc Brakes, suspension seat and front forks, overall features, duty and quality of products for a e-bike in this price range are very good! I highly recommend this bike!
