Ride1UP 700 Series Review 2023

Nov 2023 · Sam Gross

The rule “you get what you pay for” usually holds true, especially when it comes to electric bike buying. But, while more money usually equates to more quality in the e-bike world, there are some brands that prove to be the exception to this rule. Ride1UP is one such brand. In this Ride1UP 700 Series

Highs
  • It’s pretty impressive that Ride1UP packed so many name-brand components into an e-bike that costs so little.

  • Speaking of name-brand components, the Shimano Acera 8-Speed drivetrain has one more gear than the 7-speed drivetrains we commonly see at this price point.

  • The 750W hub motor is very quick. It had little trouble cruising near its maximum pedal assisted speed of 28 mph.

  • We really like the bike’s overall look. The gray paint job is subtle, but the overall frame shape has lots of curves and looks very nice.

  • The 672Wh battery has great range that’s competitive with other similarly specced Class 3 electric commuters.

  • The Tektro disk brakes work very well and should be easily serviceable by your local bike shop, an often overlooked feature that’s very important when an issue arises.

Lows
  • All direct-to-consumer e-bikes require a little assembly, but the 700 Series needed more than average. We’d highly suggest taking this e-bike to a bike shop to be built by a professional.

  • The cadence sensor isn’t the quickest we’ve tested, with a short lag in response when stopping or starting pedaling.

  • Despite its 750W motor, the 700 Series didn’t clear our test hill in the throttle-only hill test.

Observations
  • An affordable urban electric bike with slightly higher top speed of 25mph, trigger throttle operates from zero and overrides all nine levels of assist for maximum control, zippy 500 watt Bafang hub motor, basic 160mm mechanical disc brakes

  • Upgraded Shimano Acera derailleur with basic 7-speed 14-28 tooth freewheel, upgraded rims with matching black spokes, thicker spokes in the rear for strength, unlabeled SR Suntour suspension fork with preload adjust adds comfort when paired with the gel saddle and stitched ergonomic grips

  • Sloping top tube makes the bike approachable with a lower standover height, value brake levers have rubberized edge for comfort and motor inhibitors for safety, integrated headlight keeps you visible, compact display is easy to use and offers some settings adjustments

  • Great kickstand placement, excellent sealed 12-magnet cadence sensor, two color options and even a swept-back handlebar option make this bike unique, ships to US, Canada, and Mexico for not much extra, more steps to assemble because the fork and stem are not attached, no bottle cage bosses, no slap guard
