Darren –
I purchased this model in February 22. I got it is a second bike to use with my old Free go Hawk that I purchased four years earlier, I brought it new and have rode just over 7000 miles on it and is showing signs of age.
I do around 1400 a year and wanted to have a high quality back up bike when the other bike cannot be used and to spread the wear and tear between the two.
Having had the Free go bike for so long I am aware of its short comings and the features I think are missing from it.
I use the bikes solely for commuting to work and I think this model is the perfect bike for me in the way of features and quality. I am sure that I will get good service from it.
I am only giving it four stars because the bike description states around 90 miles per a charge but I have only been able to get 62 miles max from a single charge.
I would still recommend this bike through. As a car driver I am well aware that actual mpg is a normally less than stated.
