Review on Revolutionize Your Ride With The Swagtron Swagcycle Pro Folding Electric Bike: Fully App-Enabled And Packed With Features! by Joshua Flake

Decent Bike in my review

This is a decent bike for the price and convenience, but it has its drawbacks. I have been using this bike for the past three weeks to travel about 3 miles each way on mostly level terrain through the streets of San Francisco. I'm 6'0" tall and about 200 lbs.The Good:- It is very compact. I can easily throw it in the trunk of my car or stow it out of the way on a ferry or in a bar.- It is lightweight. Easy to carry around with one hand when not riding.- It's sturdy. It feels pretty solid and well-made. Front and rear disc brakes provide plenty of stopping power.The Bad:- Not as fast as advertised. At least not for me. I average about 10 mph on this thing and I'm always getting passed by people on electric scooters, skateboards, and even conventional bikes.- Struggles on hills. Even seemingly slight inclines make this thing really slow down.- Rough ride. There's basically no shock absorption and you can't stand on it, so on rough roads you kind of just have to tighten up and take the pain.- Not weatherproof. This bike is not rated to withstand a heavy downpour, so it's not really an option for rainy climates or times of year. So if using this for your commute, you'll need a backup option.All-in-all, I like this bike, but I'll be sacrificing convenience and getting a larger, faster e-bike.
