My wife is looking for a good step-through and came across this one. Does anybody have any idea if it is any good? Pro's? Con's? Amy hello would be greatly appreciated. Thanks.

I have one, but i got it from bestbuy. I had to upgrade a few things. Brakes wore out too fast, got a bigger chain ring.

biggest issue is the speed limit. It can not be speed hacked, and is locked to 25mph.

I just bought one, the hiboy p7 with 27.5" tires and it has a top speed of 45km/h however the throttle cuts out at 32.5km/h

I know this sub is old but I just wanna say I had this bike for 6 months and really loved it. I had no issues at all with over 300 miles on the odometer until I was hit by a car and it was totaled🥲

I have been riding a year, yes need brake adjustments but otherwise it is good, no problem till. I have ridden 5132km till now and still going on…

I've got the C1 folding bike, been using for about 3 months as a work commuter (20km/day). So far the only problem was the left pedal coming loose, as someone else said it is not reverse threaded, but I put some loctite on there and no problems since. Other than that it's been a good bike.

Never ever buy a cheap no name ebike. My friend bought a Happyrun since it was cheap and went fast, and within six months, the throttle broke, the gearbox broke, and the entire frame is at risk of collapse according to the bike shop he took it to to check out the throttle and gearbox. Also the Chaoyang tires are both flat
