The GigaByke Groove 2.0 has everything you love about the classic 750 Watt Groove electric scooter, but it's all been upgraded for better performance and longevity. Forget bogging down on hills and running down your charge, because this scooter's got the pull to get you up, down, and all around nearly any commute you can throw at it. The biggest upgraded would be the upgraded motor on this scooter which offers bigger magnets for its magnetic drive, giving you more torque going up hills as well as more consistent top end speeds when riding for long stretches of road. The hydraulic brake system in the rear paired with the disc brake in front makes this scooter a reliable ride and a safe one at that. You would think all of that power would deplete the ride time of this scooter, but you would be wrong. With its 48v 14Ah Silicon Battery that lasts around 25 miles, you can get to work, to school, to the store, or anywhere you need to without having to worry about running out of juice. And just in case you do run out, you can just plug this battery in to any wall outlet and in 4-8 hours your bike is ready to ride. A good scooter would be nothing without a good frame to support it, and this frame's been updated to last a lot longer, especially for you beach riders. This steel frame is as strong strong and slim as ever, only it's been painted with a matte, electrostatic auto grade rust protective paint to help against rust. Not only that, but they've upgraded their kickstand system to include not only an upgraded side kick stand, but a center kickstand, too- perfect for any parking situation. Of course, there's still no worry about being seen at night with the high powered LED headlights, tail lights, and turn signals. You can still rest assured that the covers for this bike will help protect your wires while you ride, and because there’s no gas engine on this bike, it does not need any special licensing or insurance* to ride around on the street.

Great E-Bike
Great E-bike for the money. UPS did not email me ahead of time of the delivery, so, luckily I was home when it was delivered, as they do not require a signature. (I think you can ask to require a signature, not sure?). There was minor assembly required, and when I first test rode it I found that the front turn signal did not work. I contacted Bikeberry and they were great. Approximately a week later my new turn signal was delivered. It runs smooth and handles the hills well. I have ridden it at least a mile everyday since I got it and the battery still shows to be full. I would definitely recommend this bike and Bikeberry.

the bike arrived after 5 days which was great. Broken rear wheel fender which seems to be the norm from the reviews i have seen. The assembly was more challenging than i thought and frankly the video posted on you tube sucks. Its way too fast without much detail of what goes where. For example, my front signals were just hanging off and nothing tells you that you need two screws ( not included in my hardware) to screw them into the two holes on the front fork assembly. The bike rides fairly nice except my rear tire is a bit out of round (they appear to be retreaded tires from the factory) but for a man weighing 193 pounds, top speed on flat ground has been 20 mph. This is with the hack that is on the web to allow the bike to go into high speed mode. I would say the top speed out of box is probably 16 mph. Not terrible but not 20 as advertised. The bike looks nice and seems to be fairly good quality.Update-been riding now for a couple weeks and really enjoying the bike more than expected. My wife got on back with me and it actually drove well. That's around 300 lbs total weight and still got up to 17 mph.

they finally mailed us the good unbroken part
The product shipped with a broken taillight and missing components!. I called them (Bikeberry) and they said they are going to replaced it but never happened. Called them again and again ,they finally mailed us the good unbroken part. However, in just 6 months, the battery was broken without any reason!It only run for 4~5 miles instead of 20 miles per charge as stated in the product sheet. Please stay away this product if I can advise.

NICE DESIGN BUT NOT WORTH THE MONEY
Bought this for my wife for Christmas 2015. Where do I begin...The good:1) aesthetic design is great2) can carry a passenger (we used for school activity dropoffs)The not-so-good (DEAL BREAKERS):1) the battery (not lithium ion) is very poor quality -- we live around hills but it lasted for maybe 5 miles... So we replaced it with a new one, thinking perhaps we had a faulty one, but go the same result2) after 4 months with the new battery it just stopped re-charging. We contacted Bikeberry support who told us to take the battery apart (6 screws) and charge each cell. Which we did. And it worked. However the 10 minutes to take it apart + another 10 minutes to put it back together for each charge is ridiculous.3) the pedals started spinning which after contact with Bikeberry service we diagnosed as a missing pin locking the pedal shaft to the chain sprocket. I ordered the replacement part and took me 2 hours to take apart, install, and put back together. I don't mind fixing things myself but this should have been picked up in some QA/QC process before shipping us the bike.I understand that there is a new lithium ion battery available for an additional $600 but as we look at the dead bike in our garage each day we feel like we threw $1300 out the window. Uuuugh.

Enjoying My Groove
I am delighted with the product. There have been two drawbacks. The owner's manual is terrible; illustrations are tiny, some things which should have been included are not, and it was obviously written by someone not very familiar with English. The other drawback has been in getting a replacement part. I broke a brake lever (my fault) and had to order a whole package of parts to get the one small thing I needed.

Customer service is too slow
The ebike arrived with no assemble info. 2) battery and charger connector did not fit .3) fender had reflector too close. Return took too long. Speedometer did not work. Ebike is built strong and ride smooth with pulling power. However, exchange is too slow. Ordered July 2, and still ebike is parked with no battery July 27, 2018. Review taking long to be posted.

Not worth it
Completely regret this purchase. The bike was functioning more or less as intended for some time but then the battery couldn't hold its charge at all. The bike couldn't make even a half of the advertised distance(not heavy rider; few hills, the road is almost flat). It's been parked for a few months without any use. IT'S NOT reliable. The battery would discharge in a matter of minutes. My wife had to take car service a few times because the bike had just stopped in the middle of the route
