Bottom line
The Ride1Up REVV 1 e-moped is a powerful yet hefty option for riders seeking a ‘motorcycle-style’ e-bike. In all, reviewers say the REVV 1 is for “fun over exercise”. With a 750W motor and 25-28A controller, it’s tuned to put out up to 95 Nm of torque. It ships as a Class 2 ride, topping out at 20 mph, but owners can opt into an unlocked ‘Off-Road Mode’. This is largely illegal for the streets, but it opens the REVV 1 up to higher top speeds on ‘private roads’. One tester redlined at 37 mph. Reviewers confirm that pedaling is a slog. This rig is sold in two guises; the full-suspension ‘FS’ and a hardtail ‘HT’ model. Compared to the FS (and besides the suspension), the HT is lighter, less powerful, and with a lower battery capacity.Super73-R Adventure
