Ready to Ride

This is my 2nd R1. I needed to get a step through so I can more easily take grandkids on rides. Love the power and comfort of the ride, and the kids love being outside and feeling the breeze in their faces!!! Loved the 1st enough to get a 2nd.

Great all around bike

Sold my mountain bike I rarely rode and got this bad boy.... very sturdy, super smooth ride, fast bike! Fat tires give it that great grip and a bit of cushion in the ride. Only had it a week or so, but so far it's awesome ! The fact that it comes with a rack and fenders for under $2k is a great deal. Great commute to the office !

Awesome EBike

I received my new Snapcycle r1 just over a week ago, and so far I’m very happy with this EBike 🚴 it’s well built, and easy to assemble.
It’s comfortable, and a lot of fun to ride, I’m 67 years old and this Ebike is so easy and fun to ride I know I’m going to start riding much more often than I have in the past with my older bike. I’ve been on a ten mile ride and my knees didn’t hurt at all much less for a week after the ride. We have several bike trails in our area and I plan to ride them all.
It’s just a bet heavy, but with a little practice I can get it on the bike rack by myself no problem.
The bottom line is, fun fun fun.

Snapcycle R1 Step-Thru: Thoroughly enjoying my new bike. The 750W Brushless Geared Hub Motor affords me plenty of power getting around my neighborhood and quickly returning me home for breakfast with the family. Really enjoying an added feature when you engage the hand breaks it activates the rear brake light to brightly illuminate. When the package was received it was the "best" wrapped item ever received.

I just posted a review on the Snapcycle R1 but I forgot to mention the excellent customer service. When I first got my R1, I realized that the pedal assist wasn’t working. I called customer service and was told it was probably the pedal assist sensor. I spoke to Jonathan at Burn the Ships Electrics in Hermosa Beach, Ca ( where I purchased my bike). He sent his tech to my house to change out the sensor. My R1 has been working perfectly since (I have over 750 miles on my bike). You can’t get better customer service than that.

Frequently Asked Questions

Got more questions? Contact us

Where do you ship from?

All our bikes are shipped directly from our warehouse in California.

 

Can I test ride a bike?

Yes you can, but our test ride network is currently limited to a few states. You can check them out here.

Is the seat height adjustable?

Yes it is. We use a quick-release seat post clamp mechanism in all of our bikes, which makes for swift and simple adjustments.

Does your bike come in different colors?

At the moment our R1 and S1 series come in a single color, whereas the other models come in different colors. Please refer to their specific product pages for details. We are also looking to offer color variations for the S1 and R1 models in the near future, so stay tuned and keep an eye on this space!

Does your bike come in different sizes?

Presently, our bikes come in a single size. In general, most of them are suitable for riders between 5'3~6'4. You will have to refer to the respective product page of each model to find out the recommended rider height. If you are still not sure which bike suits you the best, you may drop us a message and we'll give you our personal recommendations.

Are your bikes waterproof?

Our bikes are water and dust resistant, rated IP54. This means that they can be ridden in the rain, but we would still advise against leaving them exposed to the elements. We would also recommend cleaning your bikes with a damp cloth instead of hosing them down, to prevent damage to any components.

Where can I get my bike serviced?

Being a consumer direct business, we currently do not have physical service centers available. We do, however, have retail partners that stock spare parts and work with us closely to provide aftersales support for our customers. Alternatively, we can provide remote support via video calls, more information can be found here.
