I purchased my Roadster V3 Suspension on line and it was delivered within six days as promised. Great communication on order and delivery status and follow up. The bike was delivered in a well designed, heavy card board box that perfectly protected the bike components and finish. I watched the assembly videos on U-Tube several times and carefully cut the cardboard to find the bike and all components wrapped in protective plastic. The rear wheel and bike frame are shipped in one piece and the only assembly required is the front fender, front wheel, handlebars, seat and pedals. The included tools and make the process easy. The illustrated instructions are easy to follow. I put air in the tubes/tires and charged the battery for two hours before a test ride and after some minor adjustments was on my way. I am impressed with the powder coat paint on the Roadster and the smooth welds on the frame. There were no loose wheel spokes and the brakes were correctly aligned. I replaced the bike seat with a gel type and added a water bottle cage. The handle bar has a slight double bend and the grips are supportive. The bike has an adjustable handle bar stem which I really appreciate. The rear gear shifter works smoothly and the bike shifts the electric motor smoothly and with little delay. The LED controller is intuitive and easy to use. It's color display is easy to see in bright sunlight. The bike is light and is as easy to ride as my Trek. Hills that were a problem are now easy. The battery is easy to remove and charges in a few hours. I am getting over 40 miles between charges at 75-80% useage. Lastly, I like the throttle. I use it for extra boost in starting from a stop and to accelerate across busy intersections. The electric motor is easy on my knees and will extend my biking for many years.
