    Dead on arrival. Spent an hour setting it up and it would not take a charge. It is just an ok manual bike. Took it back. Do not want to deal with customer service on brand new bike.

    I had bought this bike being super excited! It came brand new but with a dead battery. After more research this bike has so many issues with the battery. I returned it and best buy sent a new one. Well that one also came with a dead battery that will not charge. Now i will be buying a different brand of ebike.

    This bike was purchased to help our family continue to bike together despite having knee issues. No issues with charging or the battery or its motor. It's super easy to use and helps us stay active.

    Like many others, my battery is DOA, wish I had seen these reviews beforehand. Also, the wattage on description is 500w but the bike is actually 350w. I bought this specifically because I wanted a 500w, and now I have one with a weaker motor and dead battery. Wonderful.

      Hi there! We sincerely apologize for inconvenience that this has all caused. The motor wattage is 350 and we have since been in contact with Best Buy to correct this information. For the battery issue, please email us at jamesd@aventon.com so that we can further assist you. Thank you.

    Overall a good bike

    Overall this was a good purchase for the price. The description for the regular size says it can be used by anyone over 5' tall. That is not true - I am 5'6" and can just barely stand over the bike. There is a step thru version however. The motor-battery drivetrain is good and represent more than half the value of the bike. It costs $500 to replace the battery. The derailleurs and brakes are what you would expect from a cheap department store bike. The ride quality is good - the 35mm tires are fairly rugged and good for rail trail riding and rougher roads. I only use the motor to help go up hills and the assist works well. Since the bike is new I don't know how durable it will be but again, for the price it's a reasonable value and I don't expect it will last as long as a good quality road bike that costs the same.
