First of all I rarely give 5 stars on anything as too me that means perfection. So, I’ve been cycling most of my life including mtb,bmx racing, road etc. and I’ve done a lot of wrenching. Enough of that but background is relevant.
Build was easy, typical bike in a box, well packed and no issues on packing. One thing on the build is that both bikes yes, one Bluvall and one Zeegr, both identical except Bluvall had 3” riser bars and Zeegr had 1.25” risers (handlebars) other than that they were identical, there was an issue. The front axle safety stays on the right side of both forks didn’t line up correctly. One I was able to make work and the second bike the Allen bolt snapped. This was because the bolt pattern on the fork was off as both stays did this on one side only. The second cross threaded causing the snap. I’ll drill it out and do a bolt through so problem solved.
After that build was good. Now for the bike. Frame design is standard mtb 4 bar full suspension but has limited travel like 2” so it’s stiff, both up front and rear but it works for pot holes. Both worked completely fine. Components are low end but for this price it works and I found them to be better quality than many lower end stuff. The generic brakes actually did better than I thought they would especially for a very heavy bike. No squeaks or creaks and overall pretty comfortable.
Now for the interesting part. My son (165lbs) 6’ and me (180lbs) 5’9.5” and shrinking were a pretty good way to test. I noticed that if we both stayed in any PAS 1-5 we both stayed same distance in a lead lag position. Same exact thing on a big hill. Same thing with one or two motors. This to me was amazing and the electronic parts were very consistent especially in a comparison like this. Nobody got ahead or behind which is nice for many reasons but for me it meant quality control.
In PAS 5 peddling will be maxed out at 20mph. I’d like more but the rear cassette would need a smaller gear or a larger front sprocket so it does all work together. But if you want fast put both motors on and use the throttle. Both bikes on a flat with no headwind did 34.9 to 35.4 mph and we tested with gps which was very close to my surprise.
All n all they were worth it especially as I got them on sale and had a code.
Customer service is top notch as I had an ordering issue and they fixed it in minutes. Super responsive at 830pm est.
so this bike snob recommends this bike. This was after first 50 miles. I’ll update when I get more miles and I do different rides to determine battery life.
