Luckeep M5
BikeRide finds and shows you the best prices of the bikes you want to buy. Prices constantly change and it’s impossible to compare them all yourself.
We search for prices on over 120 bike retailers to guarantee that we find the lowest prices – to save you time and money.
It’s a promise we stand behind: If you find a lower price on a bike elsewhere, we will sell it to you for 10% less. For example, if you find a bike for $480 that we have listed at $500, we will offer you to buy it for $432 through BikeRide. The bike must be the same color and size, sold in the US and not include the use of a coupon.
If you find a lower price, email us at [email protected] with documentation of the price. We’re committed to making sure that the cost of a bike does not keep you from cycling!
Facts
Summary of Reviews
We have read all expert and user reviews on the Luckeep M5. In summary, this is what cyclists think. Published Sep 19, 2025 by Reda Ashour.
8 reasons to buy
- Luckeep's M5 comes in three builds: standard (1,000W), Max (1,500W), and Ultra (dual 1,000W motors). Buyers can add a 20Ah battery to the standard or Max.
- Testers appreciate the high top speed for keeping up with city traffic.
- One expert praises the smooth acceleration and immediate throttle response.
- A tester using the M5 Ultra's dual-motor mode has no issues riding through thick sand.
- Testers enjoy the upright seated position and comfortable ride on pavement.
- The BMX bars can be angled to fit different rider heights.
- The color display is bright, easy to read, and has a USB-C charge port.
- The M5 comes with a headlight with daytime running lights, a taillight with turn signals and brake activation, fenders, a rear grab handle, and a frame basket.
13 reasons not to buy
- All M5 builds are extremely heavy and bulky.
- On the dual-battery builds, the cover must be removed and the plug switched over to connect the second battery.
- Most reviewers find the rear coil shocks too stiff in their softest setting.
- The standard and Max builds fail throttle-only hill climbing tests. One test bike’s motor shuts off mid-climb.
- In testing, the various builds never reach the top speeds claimed by Luckeep.
- The M5’s claimed motor power and top speed mean it's not legally an e-bike.
- Reviewers warn that the M5 doesn’t handle well off-road, even with the “off-road” tires.
- The 5’2” to 7’2” recommended rider height is wildly exaggerated, and pedaling isn't practical for most riders, though this is standard for moto-style e-bikes.
- Pedal assist activation is extremely delayed, with one tester counting five revolutions.
- The website and owner's manual show contradictory specifications.
- The motor is very loud.
- With the 2A (standard) and 3A (Max, Ultra) chargers provided, charge times are lengthy.
- The battery meter and speedometer are both inaccurate, according to testers.
Bottom line
The Luckeep M5 comes in three versions with different motor and battery combinations. Luckeep advertises this motorcycle-style e-bike for off-roading and commuting, but experts say it's best kept on the road. The M5 can keep up with traffic on flat pavement, but it never reaches the claimed top speed. Testers enjoy the comfortable ride over smooth terrain, as long as pedaling isn't involved. Reviewers feel the high power and torque ratings are inaccurate, as the bikes struggle in throttle-only climbing tests. Overall, the M5's performance disappoints.Expert Reviews
