We were looking for bikes to use when we go camping plus to use around the house. Our thought was it's way cheaper than a golf cart and you can use a bike anywhere you go where as a golf cart is not always allowed. I was looking for a bike that my wife could ride since she's 5'2". Saw this bike and after reading the reviews I thought that I would give it a try. The price was in our wheel house as first time ebike owners. The bike came well packaged and about 90% complete. Took minimal effort to put together. Watched a youtube video on how to install, but the manual was very clear. Battery was fully charged out of the box as well.

First impression and things we like: The grips on the handle bars are far better than my ebike, seat is really nice and the wife is happy with it, great LCD display. Our maiden trip was a 20 mile bike ride that was both flat/hilly terrain. At the end of the ride, still had 2/3 battery life and no cons with the bike. We're very happy with this purchase and look forward to future rides. Of course there are more expensive bikes out there, but this bike is does what we need it to do at a great
