In terms of battery power, I had been impressed that when sitting idle in the garage through a few months of winter, the bike held a charge, diminishing only 19 percent from a full 100 to 81. I was less impressed, however, that when I resumed riding after a month-long hiatus on a 33-degree day, I chewed the battery from 81 percent down to 41 percent in less than 30 minutes while riding uphill using full-on throttle mode.<\/p>\n

A few other gripes made me feel like I can\u2019t take this electric bike as seriously as I should for its price tag. The rear wheel is bolted on and the front wheel is quick-release, both of which are signs of an overall lower-quality build. A bolted-on rear wheel means you need to carry a wrench to change it, and even very cheap electric bikes<\/a> usually have a thru axle, which is more secure than a quick release.<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

Fenders are<\/a> sold separately<\/a>, adding $100 more to an already expensive ride. I didn’t have the bike’s official weight, but even just by carrying it around, I could feel that it was so much heavier than other bikes I’ve tested. It\u2019s hard to imagine carrying up stairs, over any small obstacle, or anywhere other than into a roomy garage with its own designated storage space.<\/p>\n
