I rarely write reviews,but felt it was important to put my opinion out there. You'll never be sorry you made this investment for your health and wellbeing. I got mine (mint green) and within one week my husband wanted one too so we got him the white one. I put well over 500 miles on it in 3 months time and don't have fancy trails to ride on. I rarely use the throttle as the pedal assist is enough and often just use 2 (out of 5) PAS mode. I have found the throttle helpful at an uphill stop sign and need to get through it quickly. It's easy to learn and feel very safe on it. I highly recommend this Bike and supplier. I had a bit of a wait time for the first one, but it was coming from across the ocean. Electric Zip kept me informed the best they could and this was when all of the container ships were backed up at the ports! When we ordered my husband's bike, it was here within the week. I run out of energy well before the battery does. I've never used up the whole battery at one ride! You'll love your decision on this bike once you make it so do it today before they're out of stock. Enjoy the fresh air and be sure to be safe by wearing a good helmet, bright clothing, and using your lights during the day even! Happy rolling!
