SWFT - ZIP eBike w/ 37mi Max Operating Range & 20 mph Max Speed - Black

Honest Review: Both my roommate and I have purchased these bikes and have had them for about 4 months. We purchased these bikes when they were first released. It was a gamble that has paid off. These bikes work great from the pavement, the beach, to dirt bike trails. They are like mini street legal dirt-bikes. Milage Per Charge: -I have a bike if I want to pedal. This I bought for cruising around and having fun. I am 6'5 200lbs and will get 12-15 miles before the battery starts to slow down a little. I can easily get to 20 miles on one charge with no peddling, but at 15 miles it will start slowing down pretty drastically. I usually go on 12-15 mile rides and charge it. I'm sure you can reach the 37 mile range using pedal assist. NOTE: I do live in a very flat area. -20MPH holds up great. And feels way faster than you'd expect -Comfortable seat -Stylish design -Front shock is a huge perk for a bike in this price range. I wouldn't buy a bike without one. The cheaper Super73 was my first choice before finding this (doesn't have a shock). Cons: -The wire heading to the front headlight is very tight. I ended up replacing the headlight with something of better quality. Cheap and wasn't a big deal. -My bike had an issue where the speedometer stopped working and the bike would randomly shut off. This started at around 220 miles. Its not the end of the world because the bikes still works otherwise, but I contacted customer support. This is where SWFT really outdid themselves for their customer and went out of their way to send us the appropriate replacement parts to get our bikes working again. I couldn't be happier working with a company who stands by their product and is willing to fix the issue. Thank you SWFT! Conclusion: If your looking for a stylish E-Bike that is great for on and off road, this is a great purchase for its price point. Plus you have a company who backs their product with amazing customer support!

I bought this bike March 2022 and used it to commute to and from work to avoid parking fees. It is 5.2 miles each way, with a full battery I can get to work, back home and back to work again on a single charge with no peddling. See the picture, my odometer is currently at 270 miles. The removable battery makes charging easy. The only problems I had with the bike were in the first week. A small piece of wood punctured the rear wheel and blew out, almost throwing me off. I had to replace the tube and tire, I filled it with Flat Out and havent had any problems since. The day after I fixed the tire, I hit a hard bump and the kickstand popped open and it got ripped off. I recovered it and removed the broken screws. I contacted the company and they wanted $2 each plus tax and shipping. I still dont have a kickstand. Some tips: Get some rearview mirrors. I use the Meachow bike mirrors. I tried several turn signal options and they all broke easily. Oil your wheels. If there is friction you will drastically lose battery life. I use the NDakter bike bag, it fits in the triangle under the seat and holds all the tools I need to fix the bike, as well as a mini pump and patch kit. I use the Sigtuna U bike lock, the lock fits perfect on the center support.

Very easy to assemble. No extra tools needed. This is my very 1st ebike. Did a little digging to get what fits best for my stat. I’m about 5-6’-130 so I feel the scrambler style fits my build. A little bit on the heavy side but I’m able to lift upstairs if needed. After assembly I took to a bike shop to check if everything was right, found the handle bars were kinda loose so check if everything’s tightened before you go out n thrash. I already put 325mi on the OD. As the battery depletes the climb gets weaker so when you go up hills at full bars you can go 14mph and @1-2 bars it goes down to 8-10mph. Haven’t been able to fully deplete the batt going to & from work which is abt 15-17 mi round trip & usu when I get back home I’m @ 2-1 bars showing in the panel but I check the bars on the batt itself it’s always @3bars so the readings seem slightly misleading. It takes about 4-5hrs to fully charge. It made going to & from work a lot more fun.

I purchased my first SWFT ZIP, 3 weeks ago. After 3 days I went back and bought another. I had researched almost every e-bike on the market. For styling and cost, the ZIP seemed to be the best choice for my first purchase. The real comforting factor was that I could purchase it from Best Buy and easily return it if I wasn't pleased. I loved it from the moment I unpacked it and put it together. It was well protected and extremely easy to assemble. The first ride was a blast. I am 6' 1" and weight 220 lbs. and the power of the motor shocked me. It did take a little practice to get use to the different settings of peddle assist and throttle. There is a slight delay in throttle reaction when you transition from peddle assist to throttle but it is very minor and easy to get adjusted to. The only drawback is a slight lunge when the pedal assist kicks in, which is only noticeable on flat or downhill grades. The ZIP is great fun, compact to store, and seems to be very well built.

I had limitations and budgets set on what type of ebike i was going to get. I was hessitant on getting the swft zip due to not wanting spend a ton. I have my qwerks about it. Im not sure its just mine but i had a underperforming battery. And not to waterproof where the controller unit is by the cranks. Particialy why i give it a 4/5 stars but i have uograde plans for it when warrernty expires and parts fail.
