Bike Size Charts

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 Priority Glide. In summary, this is what cyclists think.

10 reasons to buy

  • Priority offers the Glide in two sizes (5'2" to 6'2" total) and three colorways.
  • A tester loves the comfortable upright riding position and swept-back handlebars.
  • This bike includes lights with brake activation, fenders, a bottle cage, a two-legged kickstand, and mounts for racks and top tube accessories.
  • The Gates belt drive is quiet, smooth, and low maintenance.
  • A reviewer gets 32.5 miles of range using PAS 2 and 3 over flat terrain.
  • The hydraulic disc brakes offer good control and ample stopping power.
  • A tester enjoys the gentle throttle acceleration.
  • At a tested 49.67lb, the Glide is relatively lightweight for an e-bike at this price point.
  • The 700c x 38mm tires roll fast on pavement, says a reviewer.
  • The Shimano Nexus three-speed internal hub delivers simple, reliable shifting.

5 reasons not to buy

  • A tester experiences a one-second delay before the pedal assist disengages.
  • The front hub motor produces noticeable drag when riding without assistance, especially at low speeds.
  • The limited gearing and modest 350W motor mean the Glide isn’t ideal for steep hills.
  • A tester finds the display text too small.
  • The small, plastic pedals lack grip, says a reviewer.

Bottom line

Priority's Glide is a Class 2 commuter with a Gates Carbon belt drive and Shimano Nexus 3-speed hub. While some e-bikes offer a single-speed belt drive for less money, none offer hub gearing at this price point. The sole review highlights the comfortable riding position, relatively low weight, good range, and reliable shifting and braking. Complaints are minor. From the limited testing, the Glide appears to be a solid e-commuter option. For those content with a single-speed, Ride1UP's Roadster v3 is an inexpensive belt drive alternative.
