Few beefs, torque converter would have been nice; kick stand does need to be moved a bit; otherwise a great bike

Bought this bike for my 13 year old to use to and from school. It’s about 2.5 miles but with some decent hills so a conventional bicycle wasn’t really an option in the Texas heat.
Assembly was pretty straight forward other than the additional hour it took me to learn to tune the derailleur. I took it for a test ride and had so much fun on it, I “accidentally” put about 30 miles on my son’s “new” bike.
He forgave me as soon as he took his first ride. He found the bike to be a bit heavy, so jumping off curbs is a bit clunky, but the bike is a 10/10. Good speed. Good charging capacity.
I added a side view mirror for safety and the large basket for his backpack and trumpet.
Only question I have now is why was it discontinued almost immediately after my purchase? Guessing I got one of the last ones.

Bike arrived fairly quickly and easy to assemble! Brakes and derailleur were adjusted perfectly. Battery was charged and ready to ride.

I purchased the Rift step thru model. The motor, controller, battery and the rest of the components are fine but the frame flexes way too much. If I try to stand up and peddle, the bike starts to flex back and forth so much that I have to stop peddling.

When I was in the market for an e-bike, Ride1Up became the obvious choice. Quality, price and positive online shopping experience lead me to a bike that not only fits my needs but exceeded my expectations.
Shipping was a smooth process with the box arriving undamaged. A little assembly was needed but the online video made the process hassle free. I will add that the rear derailer needed some fine tune adjustments and the front head light is nothing to write home about but that’s the only knit picking I have with e bike.
I am throughly pleased with my purchase and enjoy commuting to work on days that are rideable. That the true test of a bike; one that you actually saddling up on time and time again and ride. Thanks Ride1Up!

Great experience with Ride1Up! The Rift bike was shipped fast and arrived in great packaging. The assembly instructions were very clear and after about 30 minutes the bike was ready to ride. All the components were perfectly tuned right out of the box and no additional adjustments were needed for brakes or derailleurs. That’s impressive. The bike comes with really reliable and solid components for the price, especially the front suspension fork which is much more robust than other comparable e-bikes in the same price range. This was a gift for my son and he absolutely loves it!

The bike has been flawless for 215 miles. It’s one of the best investments I have purchased.
