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!

10 reasons to buy
- The Aipas M1 comes in two builds: Pro or Max. The M1 Max has hydraulic disc brakes and an air shock.
- Reviewers appreciate the easy-to-mount step-through frame.
- The M1 includes fenders, lights, a horn, a controller-integrated USB charge port, and a 75lb-capacity rear rack.
- Testers say the M1 handles light off-road trails without issues.

9 reasons not to buy
- At nearly 100lb and 80” long, the M1 is extremely heavy and large.
- Reviewers of the M1 Pro are disappointed by the weak mechanical disc brakes on such a fast, heavy bike.
- Two testers experience severe handlebar wobble. Aipas suggests removing the rear rack, which resolves the issue for one.
- Testers say the bike is cumbersome to handle at low speeds.
- Aipas lists two wildly exaggerated height ranges: 5’5” to 7’2” and 5’8” to 7’6”.
- The M1's power and top speed exceed legal e-bike classifications.

- Several testers of the M1 Pro complain of noisy rear shocks.
- The 2A charger takes a lengthy nine hours to charge the battery.
Bottom line
The Aipas M1 is a budget fat-tire e-bike available in two builds. Only the Pro is tested. For a heavy bike that goes 32mph, testers advise either swapping to hydraulic brakes or choosing the M1 Max. The suspension impresses for the price, contributing to decent performance on light off-road terrain. On the other hand, the high-power motor struggles on steep hills. While reviewers feel the M1 provides good value, it's difficult to ignore the reported issues.Expert Reviews
