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!

Summary of Reviews
We have read all expert and user reviews on the Aipas M2. In summary, this is what cyclists think.
7 reasons to buy
- The M2 comes in two builds: Pro or Max. The Max has hydraulic disc brakes and an air shock.
- Reviewers praise the comfort of the upright riding position, fat tires, cushy seat, and suspension.
- An expert appreciates the strong but controlled acceleration from the throttle.
- The M2 can handle steep ascents, albeit not at a fast pace.
- The M2 comes with fenders, a USB-A charge port, a 77lb-capacity rear rack, a headlight, and a taillight with brake activation.
- The bike reaches 35mph when unlocked.
- The color display is easy to read under the bright sun.
14 reasons not to buy
- Aipas claims that the M2 is UL-certified, but a reviewer discovers it isn't in the certification database.
- The M2’s stated height range is listed as 5’5” to 7’2” and 5’8” to 7’6”, but two 5’11” reviewers find the seatpost too short.
- Payload capacity is listed as 330lb in the manual and 500lb on Aipas's website. They also misrepresent the bike's weight.
- Experts advise immediately upgrading the M2 Pro’s ineffective and squeaky brakes.
- The M2’s 1,000W motor and 35mph top speed mean it cannot be ridden legally on public roads.
- A 155lb tester gets just 23.2 miles of range in Class 2 mode on paved bike trails.
- Weighing 94lb and measuring 80” long, the M2 is very heavy and bulky, making transport and storage a challenge.
- Two testers complain of creaking bikes, and one determines the culprit is the suspension linkage.
- The 2A charger returns a lengthy nine-hour charge time.
- At top speed, several testers show the display’s speedometer reading 5mph above external GPS.
- A tester adjusts the M2 Pro's shock but notices little change. Another finds it too stiff.
- A reviewer complains of a one-second PAS delay and significant motor overrun.
- Testers complain of flat tires, despite being labeled as puncture-resistant.
- A reviewer hears the battery latch rattling while riding, and another’s charge port cover doesn’t close.
Bottom line
The Aipas M2 is a budget-friendly full-suspension e-bike available in two versions: Pro or Max. On paper, the Max solves two of the Pro's issues—weak brakes and ineffective rear suspension—by upgrading both. Only the Pro is tested, and reviewers find it comfortable with fast throttle acceleration. However, it exceeds e-bike classifications. Aipas lists several exaggerated or contradictory specifications, but the most worrying issue is the lack of safety certification that the company claims the bike has. While the M2's price is appealing, Aispas's shady marketing and the bike's lengthy list of issues make it a risky buy.Expert Reviews
