Same comments as our other bike. My only regret is not getting a step thru like my wife’s. Really liked the sweet back handles on the step thru

First time ebikes

Finally got to take our new bikes for an initial run. Theses are our first e-bikes and it took a little bit getting used to. Rides like a champ. We went on a paved trail most of the way just so we could fine tune the adjustments on the seat and handlebars which we both loved. Easy to put together which I think it took more time to get the wrapping off than the assembly. Had one issue putting it together (my fault) so I sent a message to the company asking for help. They get right back to me with the solution and it was a easy fix. Great customer service. We love the bikes!! I’m 71 and my wife is 65.

Great purchase

The R1 step thru is everything I hoped for in an ebike! Assembly was a snap with the video guide. Customer service is outstanding! I am amazed at how smooth and comfortable the ride is. The power going up hills is a blessing to a guy who recently had back surgery. I would highly recommend this bike to anyone looking for one.

From the Bearded Quality Engineer
I just unpacked and assembled the New Rev of the Snapcycle R1.
I will be putting together a video on youtube about this R1 rev. soon.
But for those wandering about what Snapcycle did with all of our suggestions? Well, they took notes and used a great deal of them (especially when related to safety).

1. Handlebar Stim is now adjustable, no more one size fits all.
2. The frame in the Rear Swing Arm has been is Stamps and Welded for more tensile strength (withstands more weight).
3. Hydraulic Breaks (front and back).
4. Upgrade of tires to Kenda's (wheel balancing would be beneficial to the quality or the ride).
5. Electric LED Integrated Taillight / Breaklight.
6. The Packaging is rock solid now. The box is in cognitive, pretending to be a large screen TV.

THINGS TO NOTE:
The nose of the seat is so long that (if you are a shorter stature person) the lowest portion of the High-Bar is not usable to rest you private parts over. Keep this in mind when ordering your bike. Although the High-Bar offers more tensile strength for us heavier built people, it also present an obstacle for those of us that are short in stature.
The handlebars on th R1 High-Bar are different then the handlebars on the R1 Step-through.

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.
