Looking for a reliable e-bike in NYC (done with Revv1 issues)
Posted by Mudd089@reddit | ebikes | View on Reddit | 7 comments
Hey everyone,
I’m looking to get a new e-bike and could use some advice.
I currently have a Revv1, and honestly it’s been frustrating. Once anything electrical goes wrong, it feels like no one really knows how to fix it, and getting support or parts has been a headache.
I’ve been considering Super73, but I’m hesitant. It seems pretty overpriced for what you get, and I’ve also heard they tend to attract attention from police since they’re so recognizable.
I’m mainly looking for something
Reliable and not too flashy!
Any recommendations or experiences would really help!
Thank you

Tbh I’m considering it. I bike to work so revv1 was good option for me because it don’t look like thin bicycle.. not very professional lol

20-28 mph is legal. If you don't want to stand out, just buy a bicycle that's similar in style.

That’s correct

I had a few Raev GTX e-Bikes & they were every bit as nice or better than the Super 73 I got after, sold it within a few months & just kept the Raev.

Don’t you think it’s a bit pricy at 2400$
