The new Ride1Up Prodigy V2 offers a big name drivetrain at small town pricing, with surprisingly good spec throughout.

A Great Motor at a Desireable Price That'll Keep Active Riders Happy One of the easiest ways to show off the premium quality of an e-bike has been to equip it with a mid-drive motor. Hydraulic disc brakes all look alike from 10 ft. away—same for drivetrains. But a mid-drive motor stands out, even at
Great quality motor. One of the most affordable bikes you’ll find that spec’s a Brose motor.
Controlled power and speed. The bike adds speed and helps up hills while still letting the rider feel they’ve earned their climb/pace.
Efficiency! The battery very much goes beyond advertised range in our experience of testing two different Prodigy bikes.
Reliable brakes for controlled stops. 4 piston brakes are uncommon, but appreciated, on an affordable lighter-weight commuter.
The Prodigy ST maneuvers very well. The lightweight frame, rigid fork, and tire tread lend itself to good handling on paved surfaces
Sure it’s subjective, but the new white paint job is well done. Thick and glossy helps the eye-appeal without screaming for attention either.
The stated 5’1” – 6’3” assumes riders assumes riders in that range are okay with a tight reach. Taller riders might be better suited for the XR variant instead.

Price: $2295.00 | Model Year: 2022 | A feature complete commuter-ready speed pedelec that can hit 28mph 45 km/h. It uses a premium mid-drive motor from Brose, and reliable Samsung battery cells. Relatively low price point for proven name-brand components including the 9-speed Shimano Alivio drivetrain.

A physical shift sensor cuts power anytime you change gears, significantly reducing chain and sprocket wear. Powerful Tektro hydraulic disc brakes with larger 180mm rotors and adjustable reach levers provide secure stops. The tires offer puncture protection, the lights are bright and shine form the sides as well as the front.
Good weight distribution, matching black hardware, comfortable locking grips, the saddle clamp uses two bolts for added strength, the adjustable kickstand is positioned perfectly. Deep but intuitive color display, powerful and smooth Brose TF Sprinter ALU motor with high 90nm torque output.
The bike only comes in one size and one color, unless you pay a bit extra for the fancy metallic green. Ride1Up is mostly a direct online brand, so you'll need to unbox and assemble (but it's pretty easy with this model). There's no suspension, which can feel a bit harsh at high speeds. The battery pack took more effort to mount and didn't always stick. The display is fairly small and has no charging ports.
