    How much extra would it cost for the store to assemble it for me? If its free then you've got yourself a deal

  • gzalyu on 30/12/2020 - 18:36

    Given the current state of Sydney, would I be able to buy a bike on sale now, and pick it up from your store in a few weeks time?

    Second question: could you summarise the difference between the City Pulse and the Blacktop, please?

        You've misread my question, thanks anyway.

      Hi @gzalyu. To answer your questions:

      1. Purchase on sale now and collect in a few weeks - yes, absolutely. Contact the Sydney store (https://www.reidcycles.com.au/pages/store-locations) and let them know what you would like to do.

      2. Both bikes are driven by the Bafang 250W rear hub motor and feature very similar parts/spec. The key differences are:

      • City Pulse is more of an everyday commuter bike with a more upright riding position (great for visibility and minimizing strain on your back), integrated lighting system, pannier racks and mudguards.
      • The Blacktop is built as a fast commuter with some features that make it handle better if you’re a more aggressive rider. The geometry means you are less upright and leaning forward more (better for faster cornering) and the battery pack is integrated into the downtube (lower weight distribution helps on corners and looks sleeker).

      The benefit to you of these features will depend on the type of riding you plan to do. We recommend a test ride and a chat to staff about what you want from the bike.

        Thanks!

  • trinest on 30/12/2020 - 18:41

    Are these good brand? I've always wanted an ebike. But I'm not sure if I would use it- so need to be 100%.

    • gzalyu on 30/12/2020 - 18:46

      I've had one for a few years, it's been a smooth ride with regular yearly services like any bike, with daily use. Recently the speedometer has stopped working and I need to get that checked out, but the rest of the bike (including the motor) still works regardless.

      They are heavy af, about 20 kg, so not great if you need to take it up and down stairs a bunch.

    • whitelie on 30/12/2020 - 19:39

      They're at the cheaper end, heavier, lower spec parts but if you're not using it for many kms, every day, I'm sure they're fine.
      Other option is to buy something used that has seen little use.

    The problem with Reid Cycles is that they never provide enough reasonable data to make decisions.

    Perusing the listings of ebikes they nearly always miss some important detail be it weight, motor kWh, cabling, computer display type, etc etc.

    If you’re looking at price it looks exciting. But if you look more closely, which they make it hard to do, it looks far less attractive.

    • AssociatedReidCycles @ Reid Cycles on 02/01/2021 - 12:24

      Hi @tommypickles. Apologies - this is more oversight rather than by design. Any bike with the Shimano Steps E5000 system features the full system including battery and display/control unit. Same goes for the Ananda and Bafang systems - they will have the complete system from that manufacturer.

      Your comment has lead me to review all of these however and the update to all details is scheduled for Monday.

  • JtheJab on 30/12/2020 - 20:16

    Hey guys, very new to bike, just wondering, as i am 180 (i suppose 180 is supposed to be 6' as 1' =30cm)
    IDK if it is better to be oversized or undersized, since i'm practically in the middle of L/M heightwise

    • TWDSC on 30/12/2020 - 21:33

      When I buy bikes I generally go undersized if it doesn't quite fit. A bike is easily made bigger. You can't make them smaller.

      • JtheJab on 30/12/2020 - 22:15

        Ahhh that sounds good, how do you make it bigger tho? do you need to go to a bike shop to do that?

        • Seven8Nine on 30/12/2020 - 23:40

          simple to start with will be seat adjustment and handle bar.

        • TWDSC on 03/01/2021 - 09:49

          Handlebar risers and the like can push the card higher and farther forward. Obviously seating position is easy as well.

    • AssociatedReidCycles @ Reid Cycles on 02/01/2021 - 12:00

      Hi @JtheJab. Firstly I'll say that this question is best answered by doing a test ride. If you visit one of our stores they can help you with this https://www.reidcycles.com.au/pages/store-locations

      Otherwise, the answer to this question can depend on the following factors:

      • Is your body proportional or do you have particularly long legs/torso? If longer legs, it may be a case of sizing down and just raising the saddle.
      • Which model are you looking at? As you're in between it would be ideal to try a few and see which felt best.
      • How confident a rider are you? More confident riders in between sizes would usually size up.

      If you can't visit a store, the best course of action would be to consider the above and then phone Bec or Chloe in Customer Service on (03) 9314 9199 or [email protected] . They can discuss with you and give personal advice based on your situation.

  • Seven8Nine on 30/12/2020 - 23:47

    review of the warranty claim and in store / online experience seems interesting in a negative manner.

    lack of communication and selling wrong model is seen in the most.

  • tumsum on 31/12/2020 - 01:02

    Delivery costs $19.99

    Was seriously considering getting this, turned up at the store and asked for a test ride, was told company policy doesn't allow ebikes to be taken out of the store for test ride. Big red flag and is unreasonable to expect people to spend over 1k on a product they can't test first
