TotGuard Electric Bike,26"x4" Electric Bike for Adults Fat Tire 500W 21.6MPH Ebike Foldable Adult Electric Bicycles E Bikes for Adults Electric 48V 10Ah Battery, Dual Shock Absorber,Lockable Fork

Bang for the buck on this bike is very high. The specs & layout is a good starting point accepting that you are tall and this is a style you want. Immediate upgrades for me personally included:1. A snap in 3d printed phone holder which also included a DC-DC converter(step down from 48v), circuit for iphone charging, and conventional USB port accessory.2. A rear light module built into the seat (My intial resin printed verison broke when a big bump caused a collision. I reprinted this is TPU so that it flexes now instead of breaks and all is well). You can also wire this to the brake switch so that brightness adjusts as a brake light.3. A welded trailer bike for my kid (turns out a rail road spike is a perfect dimension).4. Adhesive foam bumper pads surrounding the battery to cushion impacts & reduce rattling).5. A strategically hidden itag for tracking in case of theft.6. A realization that I just can't handle riding around with a giant "Totguard" banner down the side, and so sand & paint.7. Removal and remount of speed control which is otherwise just jammed into the frame near the seat with no fasteners whatsoever. I also used a thermally conductive epoxy to more efficiently transfer heat to the aluminum frame.8. This bike could really use some mirrors. I added one to the right grip which was easy and effective but it does make it a bit wider and a tighter squeeze between cars or other obstacles.9. (this is a later add/edit) In the highest gear ratio, if your cable adjustment or a random bump allows for your chain to slip off the sprocket, it can lock into the groove between the sprocket & frame which will prevent you from pedaling at all (but you can ride home on all electric provided you have the charge). This happened a few times, and was remedied by turning & installing a thick plastic washer that now occupies that space. The chain can still occasionally move to that position but the washer prevents it from locking in and you can easily just shift back onto the sprocket.Pros: This is a cool bike that I'm getting a lot of mileage on. The battery is adequate for long rides around town without being too heavy. The gearing is good too, and although I had some reservations about the rolling mass of large diameter fat tires, they've proven to be pretty decent if a bit thin. I did get a flat at one point via a simple pointed piece of wood mulch but haven't had trouble since then, and the low inflation pressure helps keep them pretty low maintance. The large diameter tire makes it a bit unwieldly to fold compared to my wife's which also has folding handlebars & pedals but it's nice to get this thing folded into a car without a trailer in a pinch. Bascially useful for impromptu emergency pickups as needed/desired. The display is basic but gets the job done. The one significant issue I've had so far was a screw came out of the main upper shock mount. This meant that I had to find a new fastener and then compress a 1000lb shock to reattach the assembly. This was fairly hard and upon closer inspection made me realize that brake/shift lines are wearing through already near the shock. I've since rerouted and addressed this shortcoming but I will be keeping a close eye on this moving forward as it is very clearly a safety hazard. I actually should write the company about this also as my hardware isn't probably optimal at the moment. Overall though, this bike works for me and I really enjoy it. It gets a lot of compliments as well and people all assume it was much more expensive than it was. I don't know what wheel of randomness was spun in order to name it "Totguard" but while I found it initially hillarious, I have since renamed it. Oh China! Anyway, this is about as good as any other bike coming from China- including those which cost much more. If you're handy and aware of/able to address its shortcomings then this is a great choice for you. I've only had it a few months so can't speak much to its longevity but so far so good!Edit: October '23. Still going strong, I ride this daily and tow my kid to/from gradeschool on her hitched pedal-bike. We both enjoy riding around town on it. The standard mechanical disc brakes were getting to be unreliable and a hassle to keep adjusting, esp. with the trailers' extra mass. I upgraded easily to 4 piston full hydraulics with resin pads. Now everything is great and I can do stoppies it brakes so quick and realiably. The upgrade took maybe an hour, was cheap, and was really well worth it. Just be sure you get a kit that includes the motor cut off switch- they aren't all that common (yet).

I love love love love LOVE this bike very fast acceleration and great form. There is very little I do not like about this bike: some of those are the fact that the wheels feel a bit clumsy and the brakes are amazing but squeaky. Other than that I love this bike. I feel like it can go around 23 miles ish on level 3 pedal assist. I can reach 21.7 mph on it but if you turn off the electric I reached 25 on it while pedaling hard. O my goodness this bike is such a mountain bike. I took it on the trails hit some jumps but didn’t feel a thing because of dual suspension those springs on the seat, and balloon fat tires. It seems very water resistant. I did hit a tree head first with this going about 15 mph ish the bike preformed amazing. The reason why I crashed was because I was making a sharp turn on loose gravel. I have a hundred and thirty miles and is still going very strong. My uncle is a mountain biker and has a 9000$ bike. Mine preforms just as well as the “fabulous fox suspension” in conclusion this bike is wonderful for everybody of all agesPs I am 12

First let me said the bike is good but once you get it be prepared to send it to the shop because one my front break was not good , than u have to adjust the gears and the rear shock because mine didn’t work well as long with the front the features of where u turn the option to switch close and open well on mine I have to fold the bike so it work . But besides all that for the price it’s a good bike. All u have to do is take it to the shop give the bike a lil tuneup u be fine . For the price you going deal with that . For me no big of a deal . In terms of the motor and battery. The motor seems pretty good . Battery first charge mine was super hot so I unplugged and found out that the outlet that goes in the charge was putting wrong , reason been of the heat … besides that the bike to be honest is a good bike

Charging issue. The bike was packaged very well and I received it in good condition, but I can’t get it to charge. The light on the charger is supposed to be red when charging and green when charged. Mine is always green and isn’t charging. Also I can’t figure out how to remove the battery because I would like to store the bike in one place and charge the battery in my apartment. I fold the bike and can see the handle on the battery but button on frame doesn’t push in to allow me to remove the battery. Can somebody tell me what I’m doing wrong if anything. Battery was charged when I received the bike and enjoyed riding it and I think it will work well for me once I figure out the charging.

We really like this substantial electric bike. It has all the features we want: electric, 26" fat wheels, foldable, and 3-7 speeds. My son is the Boss on campus tooling around with it. He likes that he can fold it and take it up to his dorm room rather than leave it to the thieves at the outside rack. Recommend.

I do a lot of hunting. This bike tows a trailer (get the quietkat trailer hitch) with tree stand gear, deer, or your hunting buddy with no issues. We both have them and they have gone over logs, down ditches, and through water with no issues. I’m 6’2” and 200lbs and I am reach speeds of 21mph. Battery life is great, the bike folds for easy transport, and it was easy to assemble as it came with everything you need to do so. 10/10 e-bike for the price.The only negative I can think of is sometimes starting the bike from a dead stop in the woods, if there is an inclination, there can be times where you have to give it a push/pedal to get the momentum. Again, for the price, 10/10
