My wife decided to buy an E bike after selling her scooter. She reviewed many bikes and decided on Ecotric for features and price. it arrived fairly fast and I followed the YouTube video to set it up, which was fairly easy, She really enjoyed it. I tried it and I really liked it was well. I then decided to buy also. However, I bought the 48V instead of my wife's 36V bike, as I am quite a bit larger than she is. I thought the bike would use a lot more of the battery life with my added weight. The battery of the 48V is definitely more robust if you are a larger person, otherwise the 36V is more than enough. The other differences with the 48V is you get a display that shows your battery power, your assist speed and a odometer. The 48V has 5 assist speeds and the 36V has 3 assist speeds. Both have a 7 gear Shimona derailleur which is excellent. Both bikes are very well made and I think they are a very good quality for the money. We are also able to fold them and I can get both of them in the back of our SUV, even with luggage. Their is no need for a bike rack. They also have fat tires, so that if you go over sandy areas or lawns, you have much better traction that the typical narrow bike tires. The 48V also comes with a free rear storage rack. I did put that on my wife's bike as she likes to bring her purse or bag for her phone. If you have questions or need assistance, Jay has been very responsive. I would definitely recommend this bike in either 36V or 48V setup.

Only thing missing were simplified assembly instructions

I’m 73, I have an arthritis problem, but I live in Napa Valley. 😎🥂🍇 This folding fat tire bike is even better than I had imagined. It’s quality and structure haul my 6’2”, 230lb body EVERYWHERE. I rode up the steepest hill ever (with some effort) since I was 12. No problem. This bike is stable off-road, dirt trails, sand, etc. I feel very comfortable even at my age. But mostly, it is a great “cruiser” thru neighborhoods and off the beaten track. Imagine being able to go anywhere in Napa Valley. Best yet is that it folds up and easily loads into my Toyota RAV4 along with my golf bag and still room for 4 passengers. I’ve ridden over 300 miles in my 1st 2 months. No problem except a flat (3” screw). Tubes are in short supply around me. Order 2. I get over 35 miles on the battery. Top speed is actually too fast for my age, but it makes me smile. I’m very happy with my choice of Ecotric.

My wife and I purchased 2 last October and let me tell you how great these bikes are, we live in a very hilly area and bike riding for us was not possible without doing alot of walking up the hills , not No more ,we are able to bike anytime anywhere and enjoy every ride. I'm 61 yrs old and when I ride I feel like I'm 12 again, even during the winter we could ride, they are great fun , these bikes are made well and very durable,and have done very well in all conditions of weather, you won't be sorry you bought one. Thank you ecotric,Mike

About 3 months ago I purchased 2 of these for my wife and I. We've taken a couple of longer rides and several shorter ones around the neighborhood and they do extremely well in our hilly neighborhood. We took them camping this past weekend and several folks we were camping with got out on them to give them test rides around the campgrounds, also hilly. We live in Northern Nevada at the base of the Sierra Mountains, so there's not too much flat land around here. Our longest ride to date was 13 miles start to finish and the batteries were still showing half a charge at the end of the ride. That ride started with a full charge showing on the battery itself, but the light on the charger had not yet turned green. That being said I think the bikes have close to a 30 mile range. A lot will depend on how much pure electric you use, compared to assist mode. My only concern is the charger gets pretty warm when they're charging. Not so hot you can't handle them, but you wouldn't hold them for a long time. It may be normal. The brick on my laptop charger cable just never gets that warm. To be safe I always keep the charging base on the granite counter in the kitchen and nothing near it. I would not hesitate to recommend these to a friend or family member.
