My first e-bike. It was amazing for 166 miles. Then I got a pinch flat on the rear tire, which is when I discovered the ugly design of the rear motor hub wiring. In order to remove the rear wheel to patch the tire, you need to first remove the kickstand, the disc brake caliper, and the motor wire cover plate; 10 fasteners requiring 4 different allen wrenches and an 18 mm socket wrench (not included). If you get a flat out on the road, you need to have someone pick you up. You need a bike stand to remove the rear wheel or you take it to a bike mechanic. Patching the flat on the rear wheel, something that normally takes 20 minutes, took two hours and involved removing and replacing 2mm allen bolts obscured by spokes and chain. Not fun. You need to recalibrate the disc brake after reattachment. It is a freaking mess. Take it to a shop if you have money. Buy a brand name bike if you have money. 100 miles later, mostly coasting, the right pedal fell off, the crankset stripped. Ride1Up support refused to replace the crank arm and blamed me. They said I installed the pedal wrong, that I stripped it by putting it on the wrong side. Huh? Baby, I have been riding bikes half a century. The unbranded crank arm nestled in your brand name components is of the lowest quality possible. I do recall when I installed the pedals, the right one wouldn’t seat right and it took a few goes before it caught straight. There was some resistance seating. I should have stopped then and called customer service. If it stripped, it’s because the machining on the part was defective. If you have any difficulties installing the pedals on yours, stop, call service and wait for advice because they’re gonna tell you their defective crank is your fault when it fails four weeks later. Customer support is prompt. They referred me to pages that don’t exist on their website, told me the dimensions of the crankset incorrectly. I suppose it’s best they refused to replace the crankset; any aftermarket replacement would be better quality. They sent me an inner tube as a consolation prize. I should have read their guarantee before I bought. Anyway, lotsa fun with the power. Consider the whole experience. YYMV.

Love it! The Quality is just as good as any top brands. Sleek and stylish, motor is smooth and quiet. One of my favorite bikes ever owned.

It is very nimble for e bike. I use it for daily commute and feels like this was best decision to get this lightweight bike which feels like a regular bike. And the best part is it is quite for most of the part and the torque sensor is one of the best making the purchase worth. I wish i had made decision back in October of 24 cuz had to wait 4 months due to backorder.

We love the performance of the Roadster V3. I love the smooth, comfortable handle and the pedal assist makes biking effortless even on an incline, as evidenced by a drop of 20+ less on my heart rate than when I’m using regular road bike. I just wish it had some hydraulics for comfort on bumpy rides, but overall, I loved it!

How does the bike* fit? Please share your height/size and the frame type you ordered, if applicable. 5'9" male. Medium fits well.
Excellent bike just what I wanted!
How does the bike* fit? Please share your height/size and the frame type you ordered, if applicable. Bike fits great. I'm 6'0" and the Large could handle much taller person. I would think a Medium if shorter than 5'10".
This is the exact E-bike I was looking for. Lightweight and rides like a regular bike. Fit and finish are great. I am impressed with the overall power of the motor for a lightweight e-bike as someone that is 225 lbs. I swapped out the pedals with some mtb pedals as the original ones just have grip tape and aren’t great.

I am slender 5 '9, I got the med frame, despite initially being recommended the large. I am still pretty stretched out on the smaller frame, and would appreciate one just a little smaller.

How does the bike* fit? Please share your height/size and the frame type you ordered, if applicable. The Large is a little on the tall side for me at 5’10” but it’s still works great.
I am happy with my new ride1up with one exception. I am not happy with the change of the derailleur. When I first read and listened to reviews I was impressed with the Shimano derailleur which I have on my current “traditional” bike. Once I ordered the bike the derailleur was changed and frankly it is not as smooth as the Shimano.
How does the bike* fit? Please share your height/size and the frame type you ordered, if applicable. I ordered a large which fits perfectly. I am 6'1" with a 32" inseam. My wife ordered a small which also fits well, she is 5'3".
