had it for over a year had it for over a year. use it to commute to work (20miles roundtrip) Goods: 1) looks good 2) battery lasts for up to 40miles 3) decent price. although not a fan of hiding $200 shipment fee! Needs improvement: 1) Super heavy. doesnt feel like a bicycle. make it lighter roadbike like pls. 2) parts were finicky: i had to get replacement brakes, readjust paddle (came apart during ride!), and tighten the latch that folds the bike (came apart during ride!). Get the powerful motor because mine (350W 9amph) feels slow and heavy.

Worst company ever. Worst company ever. Now that’s the response I was looking for! Thank you Stark. Keep that up and you’ll see your reviews quickly climb!

Purchased one just before Christmas Purchased one just before Christmas, picked it up from the shop in Stockholm. It was easy to assemble all parts were good. The Swedish government will refund 25% of the cost as a campaign to promote electric bicycles. I intend to order three more later this year. With the government refund I will get one bike for free. I feel sorry for the guy in Australia who lost his bike to the customs. Seems like a stupid behavior from a government, concedering the environmental advantages with a e-bike

Vorsicht! Nicht zu empfehlen! Gibt es nur Ärger! Nach fast 10 Monaten sind die Bikes endlich geliefert worden! Es gab viele Lügen und Versprechungen seitens Stark Drive! Leider sind die bestellten Bikes nicht vollständig! Die bestellten Schutzbleche fehlen und man bekommt keine Reaktion von Stark Drive! Ein Fahrrad wurde beim Versand oder auch direkt beim verpacken durch den Hersteller beschädigt! Des weiteren fehlte der Akku bei einem Bike! Fotos von der Beschädigung und eine Bitte um nachliefern der Schutzbleche werden ignoriert! Mehrere Emails werden einfach ignoriert! Eine Reaktion habe ich dann doch bekommen: Please return the bikes. The shipping address is Shenzhen china. Please get back to us which carrier you will use. Return shipping costs are your responsibility. Be sure to inform the carrier you are sending high capacity lithium batteries. Wegen des Akkus ist es nicht möglich die Fahrräder nach China zurück zusenden! Was nicht geliefert wird, wird nicht erstattet und auch nicht nachgeliefert! Garantie gibt es dann anscheinend auch nicht, da man auf Reklamationen einfach nicht reagiert! Überlegt euch gut, ob Ihr ein Fahrrad bestellen wollt, da es nach der Bestellung kein Widerruf gibt und mit PayPal seid ihr auch nicht abgesichert, da Crowndfunding bei PayPal nicht abgesichert ist!! Google translate: After almost 10 months, the bikes have finally been delivered! There were many lies and promises from Stark Drive! Unfortunately, the ordered bikes are not complete! The ordered fenders are missing and you get no reaction from Stark Drive! A bicycle was damaged during shipping or directly when packaging by the manufacturer! Furthermore, the battery was missing on a bike! Photos of the damage and a request to resupply the fenders are ignored! Several emails are simply ignored! I got a reaction after all: Please return the bikes. The shipping address is Shenzhen China. Please get back to us which carrier you will use. Return shipping costs are your responsibility. Be sure to inform the carrier you are sending high capacity lithium batteries. Because of the battery, it is not possible to send the bikes back to China! What is not delivered, will not be refunded and not re-delivered! Apparently there is no guarantee either, because you simply do not react to complaints! Think well, if you want to order a bike, because there is no revocation after the order and with PayPal you are not hedged, as crownfunding at PayPal is not secured!

Bike of the Ages I've had two electric bikes before this and though they were nice, they're nothing compared to the Stark Drive City. This bike is superb and quite luxurious. The mere design is breathtaking and the performance is second to none. I enjoy long drives with the marvellous bike and nothing beats having the wind blowing through your hair on a cool afternoon. The locking mechanism is very clever and saves me time from worrying if someone will tamper with my battery. I'd definitely recommend anyone to try this and if their as happy as I am just give me a thumbs up.
