I got the Hipeak Bona step over model and it rides great. It comes 20" size tires that are 4" wide and are puncture resistant fat tires that make the ride smooth across various terrains like on the road and off-road environments like dirt, pebbles and more. It has 48V 15Ah battery that gives you up to a 60 mile range in pedal assist mode. The battery fully charges in 5-7 hours. With a 750w brushless geared motor you get up to a a max speed of 25mph. The best part about the bike is that it is easily foldable to either store or to put in the trunk of your car for easy carrying. It is a big on the heavier side with a weight of 62lbs so you may need help lifting it up to put it in and out of your car trunk. But that also means that it can handle a max load of 350lbs which can be a huge benefit for some.It comes with 7-speed Shimano gears which enhance your experience as you ride. You can use the bike in regular pedal mode without any electric assist, in pedal assist mode where you have to pedal to move but the pedaling is assisted with the electric motor making it easy to pedal without much effort and helps you achieve faster speeds, and lastly a full electric mode that you can ride the bike in with just a twist of the throttle without the need to pedal at all, so it is like getting 3-bikes-in-1.One of my personal favorite features is the rear rack that helps me carry items on the bike without worrying about handing items from the side on putting things on my back. This has made shopping easy for me. The battery pack is easy to remove to enable easier charging indoors. You can even ride in regular pedal mode without the battery attached.The bike comes mostly assembled and it is quick to put the final pieces together with the included tools. The digital screen on the bike shows you your speed, battery capacity, odometer and pedal assist level. The bike also comes with a headlight and rear reflectors for your safety. I've been using it regularly for the past month and I've only had to charge it once after the initial charge. Overall, quite a fun ride.
