GBGreat company, great service, great bike! I received my R1 yesterday. Delivery time was as promised and there were no glitches. The very sturdy box was in good shape and hopefully there wouldn't be any hidden damage so assembly was next. Never having done this before, I followed the video from the website and two hours later I was cruising down the street. More than satisfied with my purchase!

GBPurchase of 2 R1 step thrus The bikes arrived in about 1 week, although FedEx initially gave us false hopes by predicting the delivery date too early. There were some minor scratches in the finish, one of the derailleur guards was slightly bent as was one of the cargo racks. Both derailleurs required adjustment before all of the gears could be reached. The only real issue was a broken fender on one bike. Snapcycle quickly agreed to send a replacement when inventory is available. We are really happy with the free helmets and panniers from the Halloween special. The bikes came with better tires than expected, but I'm not sure the batteries are Samsung. They don't indicate a brand and they aren't UL listed. We are very impressed with the performance, beefiness, and finish of the bikes, but we haven't had much time to use them.

GBHi. Stinger kickstand too close to pedals Hi. Snapcycle Stinger kickstand is to close to the pedals. Snapcycle R1 has a kickstand that is 12 inches away from center of crank while Stinger is on 10 inches away so back of foot heel hits kickstand and makes pedaling difficult because you have to place your foot forward past the center of the pedal almost have to pedal with your heels. I had to replace the kickstand bolts with longer bolts and 15 washers for each bolt to move the kickstand further towards the spokes to move the kick stand far enough away so my heel doesn't hit the kickstand anymore.

GBSnapcycle Eagle is Plug n Play The Snapcycle Eagle worked great right out of the box. It took only a few minutes to assemble and the battery had enough charge for a quick test ride. The shifter, brakes, controller and motor all worked flawlessly. Later, after a full charging session, I took it out for a 20 mile bike trail trip, mostly in PA 0, 1 and 2, with the occasional throttle twist on small hills. It looks like the battery is down only 2 bars. I do wish the manual had more detail on programming the controller. Hopefully there is a video out there somewhere that explains the settings and how to tweak them.

GBWell built, nice riding bike We were somewhat hesitant to order an electric bike online, but we were happily surprised at how well it turned out. The ordering was easy, the shipping fairly quick, and the bikes are everything we could have asked for and more. There is a lack of information about assembling the bike, but we did it without issue. The bike itself is well built, sturdy and inspires confidence when you ride it. Overall, it is one of the best bikes we have owned, and we wouldn't hesitate to buy another one. In fact, we bought two! Great bike, happy customer!
