Let customers speak for us
from 127 reviewsI have the 72V Roadster. It is fun and effortless to ride. Get the Race Mode option because you don’t want to be limited on what this bike can do. You practically never have to peddle it, and the acceleration, control, and range of this system is impressive. It’s such a beautiful looking bike (so much more than any other out there) that I’m a bit afraid to park it for too long in public, so get a good bike lock for peace of mind. Customer service is top notch and as impressive as the bike.
To say that I am pleased with my Vintage Electric bike would be an understatement. But it's not just about the bike, which you can read about and see on YouTube videos. The company behind it is just as impressive and I've had a great experience starting with the inquiring about specs, placing the order, and support with receiving the bike to make sure it was exactly as I wanted it.
I live in the foothills and drop 1,400ft into towns to do errands and beer runs on my Scrambler. It's a 28 mile ride and the Scrambler gets the job done. It is a blast to ride. After 5 years, the battery has become less efficient and sadly no longer gets me back home. I will have to purchase the battery upgrade. I'll also get the suspension seatpost for added comfort and safety.
I’ve taken delivery of my new Vintage 72V roadster but I haven’t taken a ride yet. That happens in a couple days. But it’s the most beautiful bike I’ve ever seen and I owned a Van Moof S3,(a work of Modern Art)!
This is my second bike from Vintage Electric, my first, the Cafe style, was wrecked in a car accident! That said, the 72 Volt Roadster has been the BEST possible replacement. It is my daily commuter bike; I live in mid-city Los Angeles, and this bike has proven to be the best way to get around. I ride it on average 17 miles a day, 4 days a week, and it has been the BEST investment I could have made. My Roadster is my transportation, it is fast, cool, reliable, comfortable, and gorgeous. The service team is incredible, the sales team (Eddie), fantastic, and I cannot imagine myself without this bike. Thanks to Vintage Electric for such an incredible and beautiful bike. Could not be happier.
Hi Eddie- love the bike and its abundance of power. It’s been a bit warm for much riding in LV, but looks like fall has finally arrived. The range is amazing. My first real ride was on the 26 mile loop trail at Lake Mead. I finished the ride and still has 3 bars left on the battery gage. Not sure what that means in terms of remaining distance, but would be nervous about that length of ride, which has a lot of terrain, on many other E-bikes.
Last week we took our bikes up to Zion and Brice National Parks and rode about 50 miles of paved trails with absolutely no issues.
I purchased a scrambler a couple of months ago. What a great decision. My wife tells me I am too analytical well that is my business. I sell analyzers for my business. And teach analyzers at a technical college. So I spent hours looking at the best e-bikes and found the vintage is the best. Well built. Well thought out and well engineered. If you are struggling to pick the best then go no further. I highly recommend Vintage Bikes. You will not be sorry. You will pay a bit more but it is well worth it. No need to look further. Make the decision and purchase a vintage bike today.
The best of the best.
For my biking, the power of my Vintage bike = safety. I do not ride for speed; I ride for safety.
Steep hills, with a less powerful electric system, caused me to do things that were note safe. Most commonly, before a steep hill, I would build up momentum (velocity x mass) to try to carry me a ways up the hill. That was not always safe because building up momentum required building up speed which was not always safe, especially on blind curves with bikers coming down the hill.
With the power of my Vintage bike, I now commonly do the opposite. I stop at the bottom of steep hills and just wait a bit, listening for on coming bikes. I then creep up the hill, under my control, until I know the trail is clear of other bikers. Being able to creep up a steep hill = safety.
I found this company while researching e-bikes. I loved all of models, the mission of this company, and the beauty and durability of their torque and pedal assist bikes. When I saw the Rally demo bike was for sale and after talking to Ed, I was sold! I love supporting independent companies who have a vision and passion for what they create. Vintage Electric nailed it. The Rally bike stands out and is even more beautiful in person. The speed is no joke! I live in the hills of Eugene and the Rally kills it going up. I love the uniqueness of my bike. When I’m riding to work/school people are checking it out! My teacher friends love it when they see me ride up. Simple and easy to ride. Thank you!! Jen.
I found Vintage Electric Bikes by accident, but what a find. I was considering another vintage style electric bike, but the specifications for Vintage Electric bike (VEB) got my attention. Then I YouTube videos of the VEB and was impressed. It was not until I saw the bike in person I realized I had to have it. Well, that day has come, and owning/riding VEB bike is simply an amazing adventure. The power, style, comfort, and yes speed is beyond words. If you are on the fence for this experience I highly recommend purchasing one you will not be disappointed.
I first notice the Vintage Electric Bike while thumbing thru a Hagerty Magazine,,,there was a photo of the 'Roadster' and it was love at first sight. For months I kept referring back to that ad thinking...one day...
Eddie made that one day happen for me...we were able to modify the handlebars and seat to make the bike fit my needs...The bike has performed above expectations !
I was so impressed with the comfort, speed, and ride quality that we decided to purchase a second Vintage bike...Shelby 11...after a few comfort features added, my wife and I are cruising in style thru the back country roads of Virginia...great purchase and well worth the price !!!
Awesome 72v Roadster w/Race mode! Well made with Quality materials. this E-Bike is totally worth the price point(s) I researched for 18 months and started with 20 finalists. It came down to Technology & Performance . I am a larger & older guy who needs this Torque and power. My life has changed for the better because of this bike. Enough said.
I purchased the 72 V Roadster and love it. I previously had 48V Scrambler and decided to upgrade. Being a larger guy who lives on a rather steep hill, I wanted something with extra boost. So happy that I did. Eddie helped me through out the purchase, shipping, and dealing with our local bike shop to finish the assembly. I am loving this bike more than I thought possible. Thank you for building such an incredible bike! PS. The after sale care has been amazing. That says so much for any company. Customer Service speaks volumes!!
