8 reasons not to buy
- The 1,000W nominal motor output and 28mph out-of-the-box throttle speed make it illegal to ride this bike on public roads and trails.
- The stated rider fit for both the Ranger (4’10”-6’2”) and Ranger Max (5’3”-6’5”) are wildly exaggerated, given they both have saddle height ranges of just four inches.
- In unlocked mode, the jumps in speed between pedal assist levels are both uneven and too large (5-9mph). PAS 1 is also slow, maxing out at six miles per hour.
- A 5’11” reviewer can't get full leg extension on the Ranger Max at the seatpost's minimum insertion point.
- The 2A charger makes for slow charging times.
- An expert complains that the rear fender rattles against the rack.
- At 72 or 78lb, the Bee Ranger is heavy, making it difficult to lift or transport.
- One owner complains of a noisy, vibrating motor.
