    Thank you so much for your review. I ordered mine a few hours ago and can't wait for delivery. Of course where l live (Delaware) is calling for rain during the period l am expecting it. I heavily lamented this purchase and had a $1400 budget but couldn't find another bike as highly rated with the same equipment. Wish me luck this is my firsr e-bike

    As of today l've had my BK3 one year. With 2400 miles l've only replaced wear items, brakes and tires. I was happy to be rid of thosd noisy off road tires since almost all of my riding is on the street. The only issue has been my headlight which has lost about half of it's brightness, l have the Amazon warranty so l'll see if they will get me a replacement. Average battery life using throttle only most of the time is 20-25 and with just peddling uphill over 30. This is what l would call a very good inexpensive e-bike. It lacks some of the things on higher priced bikes like Hydraulic brakes, color hd display, usb port and adjustable bar hight, longer range battery (it's 15 ah does well) but does come with full steel fenders, quality cushy seat, sturdy rack, headlight and tail light that includes a brake light. For anyone in the market for a $7-800 e-bike l would highly recommend the BK3. It's 20 mph limiter can be reprogrammed to get a displayed 32 mph which is optimistic but is a true 29 mph l've ran the hell out of it with no mechanical issues. Very happy with my purchase

    I took delivery on mine April 11th of this year and as of today it has 999 miles. I use mine daily and am quite amazed that for this price the bike is sturdy and bullet proof. My complaints are barely worth mentioning. The back tire is showing noticeable wear, l figure by 1500 miles l'll replace both with street tires because l do no riding at all requiring those noisy knobbies. The brake cables need their third adjustment, l don't know if this is normal or not but the brake pads are holding up well. Some orange rust is forming in the welds on the luggage rack, nothing some emery paper and model paint won't correct. You can adjust the top speed with the controller. I have mine set at 30 mph and it still feels like there's more to go. I use mostly throttle mode, usually at top speed and go 25-35 miles on a charge. I did one run using only pedal assist and went over 50 miles bit l didn't buy it to pedal. The closest thing to a real problem is try to keep the controller dry. I rode it in the rain and the next time l turned it on it would shut back off. I noticed some condensation in the display. After several tries it came on and as soon as it cleared up it worked fine. Now l keep a baggie and if l get caught in the rain l wrap the controller. This e-bike is way better than expected. It cost about .70 to charge it. It's like having a motorcycle with a low top speed with no $$$ insurance or registration.

    agree with the tires, the brakes do need adjustment over time, that's how it is with mechanical disk brakes. This ebike is a hell of a bargain for sure, the way they shaved premium features, not many people care about and based on the simplistic design, it works and it works great without much fuss.

    I dont have it anymore, however it was great when I had it, and looking back on it, it was one of the stronger ebikes despite the price. it can go faster, some have noted in the comments, a terrific bargain. One drawback that I forgot to mention.... the bike is steel, not aluminum, and it can rust over time.

    Bought the same ebike and really like it except the brakes need to be adjusted badly. Can you tell me if you bring your battery in the house every night? Live in Florida and have temps in the low 90's for 6 months of the year and worried those temps will damage the battery. Also, it says on their website and Amazon these are Hydraulic brakes, I am pretty sure they are not, can you verify? Thanks and great review!

    I have a safe spot to charge outside. The brakes may require adjustment and that goes with most e-bikes, bower if you true the wheels beforehand, it should be easier. The bolts were incredibly tight though. They are not hydraulic, this is a simple mechanical brake.

My first ebike was another budget buy. It was an Ancheer 250 watt city cruiser that looked like the hitway. I wanted to upgrade the rear hub, but the cost of upgrading was more expensive than I was willing to pay. For me the math was simple. I paid 800 for the ancheer, I also purchased a secondary battery for 200. I sold the ancheer for 500 and returned the secondary battery used the money to purchase the hitway. I felt like I upgraded with no out of pocket cost. The bike has plenty of power.

I reset the top speed to 30 mph which is where it spends most of it's time and will climb a very steep hill on throttle only at 26 mph. The brakes needed two adjustments due to cable stretch but that's been it. I have friends with $2000 ebikes that don't perform any better.
