GOKEEP JX-EP26A-A Electric Mountain Bike: Does It Really Go 75 Miles?

The GOKEEP Electric Bike offers really good bang for your buck at just $400. You get a bike that can travel up to 75 miles, reach speeds of 28 miles per hour, and climb hills without much effort thanks to its 600-watt motor. The battery comes off easily so you can bring it inside to charge, which is perfect if you live in an apartment or don't have outdoor outlets. It passed UL safety tests and has five different riding modes, including one where you just twist the throttle and don't pedal at all. The V-shaped frame makes it easy to get on and off, and the seat is designed to be comfortable even on longer rides.

This bike works best for people who want to ride to work or school without spending a lot of money. It's also great for weekend fun rides around your neighborhood or local parks. The 75-mile range means you won't need to charge it every day unless you have a really long trip. People who like having choices will enjoy the five riding modes - you can pedal like a normal bike, use the motor to help you pedal, or just use the throttle and not pedal at all. The cruise control feature is nice for keeping a steady speed without thinking about it.

However, this bike isn't perfect for everyone. If you ride at night a lot, you'll need to buy lights since they don't come built-in. The bike is pretty heavy because it's made of steel instead of lighter aluminum, so carrying it up stairs or loading it on a car rack takes some muscle. It doesn't fold, so you need space to keep it - it won't work if you have a tiny apartment or need to take it on the bus. The front-only suspension means bumpy roads can still feel rough. And if you want to haul groceries or other stuff, there's no rack included. People who need serious off-road power or want the lightest possible bike should look at other options.
