CHEAP ELECTRIC BIKE!!!! Which one is right for you? Affordable E Bikes That Make Sense

Hey everyone. I'm Dustin. I have nearly 20 years of experience in the bike and e-bike industry, and today we're going to discuss low-cost electric bikes and which one is right for you. Stick around.

All right, so today we're going to talk about electric bikes for low cost, but before I do, hit that subscribe button below. Stay in touch with us here at Sixthreezero. Be the first to know about all the new content we're putting out, giveaways we're doing, and of course, new product releases. Okay, you're in the market for an e-bike. There's a lot of selection out there, lots of different models. How do you know what's right? Also, you're looking for something on a budget, so you want an e-bike for a low cost. What do you need to purchase? Well, before we get into it, I want to show you behind me right here. I've got three electric bikes for under $1,000, Sixthreezero Ride in the Park, the Pave’n Trail, and right here, the Reach Your Destination all will be linked in the description below. You can find them on sixthreezero.com. So check them out.

Now, one thing I want to say about electric bikes for a low cost, we have to define what low cost means. To some people, the low cost of an electric bike would be $2,000. To other people, the low cost of an electric bike would be $500. So how you define low cost is really up to you. And also what that means to you because when you do pay less money for a product, you're going to get less of something in exchange. Now, it could be less customer service, it could be lower specs, or sometimes it can just be a company taking a smaller margin and not making as much money to price their product less. That does happen as well. So if you're shopping around and you're looking for a low-cost, number one, you have to define what price range you're looking for.

When you talk about electric bikes and you talk about low cost, I would say the lowest cost of an electric bike I've seen out there is about $400, and you can move all the way up to $10,000, $12,000. The middle range for e-bikes is somewhere in the 1,500 to $2,000 range. And I would say on the lower cost range, we're looking at anything under $1,000. So the lowest cost is about $400, lower cost is about under a thousand. Mid-range is about $1,500 to I would say $2,500. And then once you start to get $2,500 and above, you are in the medium-high range. And then anything above, let's say $4,000, you're really in the high range. And a lot of times those over $4,000 e-bikes are going to be off-road only mountain bikes, very large motors or even stuff for the pavement, but they're going to have very big motors that technically wouldn't be legal on most streets or paths in the United States.

So when you're shopping for a low-cost e-bike, there are a couple of things you need to know, which is if you're shopping in that three, four, to $500 range, there are things you want to make sure you pay attention to. Number one, what's the warranty like? What's the reputation of the company? What's their return policy? Do they have a phone number? Do they have an email address? Can you read reviews? Can you see anywhere to find out how responsive this company is? Will they get back to you? Will they talk to you? Could you get parts if you need them, or will they allow you to return the e-bike if you should choose that you don't like it? So I would just recommend, especially when you're spending even three, four, $500, that's a lot of money. So you want to make sure if you're trading dollars or trading service or policy or humans on the other end of a phone call in exchange for one, two, three, $400, that you're okay with that.

And you know the risk you are taking by buying, let's say a $400 e-bike is okay by you if you feel like you can't get ahold of somebody or the warranty may not be as long. Those are some of the things that differentiate mid-range e-bikes from lower-end E-bikes. A lot of it's going to definitely be the warranty of the company and also the quality of the products. One thing to mention is there have been instances of e-bike fires. Now, most of those e-bike fires are happening on e-bikes that are sub $500, sub five, or $600. And this is because batteries are coming out of factories that don't have the certifications that more expensive battery companies have. And as you start to get these certifications, these factories invest in better technology, better components, and better safety things for the warehouse and the production, and the factory. All of those things will add to the cost.

What that does though is it gives you peace of mind as a consumer that you're getting a quality product. So there's maybe an assumption that if you buy something more expensive, there's no value in it. Right? In the e-bike space, in the car space, I can assure you that there are things that go into it that make the products more expensive. Now, at Sixthreezero, we have these thousand-dollar bikes, which we feel is a great value because we still provide the service, and we still provide good specs. We as a company are making a little bit less margin to keep them priced under that $1,000 range while still being able to produce a product that we can stand behind and feel like it's a great experience for our consumers. So low-cost e-bikes are out there. You can find tons in different price ranges.

Just make sure if you're looking at a couple of different ones and the prices are all different, compare the different elements you get, which sometimes can also be difficult because it's not always going to be an apples-to-apples comparison. And a lot of times as well, you're going to see a $400 e-bike may have the same battery size or the same motor size as a $1,000 e-bike, but again, there is something different about those two batteries. If one e-bike's $400 and the battery's still the same size, just know that there could be some risk that comes with that battery or there could be a risk of the battery dying sooner. And if you have questions about what is the value, reach out to the brand that you're interested in, you can always reach out to Sixthreezero. We can explain to you why this bike is priced one way versus another one. If you want us to compare any of our bikes to competitors out there, we're happy to do it. I'm a very transparent CEO of this company, and I like to give everyone as much information as possible.

So I hope that helps with e-bikes for a low cost. If you have any other questions at all, please comment below or reach out to us, the team at sixthreezero.com, or call us, at 310-982-2877.
