Facts
Summary of Reviews
We have read all expert and user reviews on the Bee Cool Bee Tracer. In summary, this is what cyclists think.
9 reasons to buy
- A tester relishes the throttle’s responsiveness and quick acceleration.
- The suspension fork has adjustable compression, and reviewers say it absorbs bumps well.
- This bike comes with fenders, passenger footpegs, a moto-style headlight, and a taillight with brake activation and turn signals.
- In testing, the hydraulic disc brakes demonstrate reliable stopping power.
- Experts find the assembly quick and easy.
- The color display is easy to read, shows battery level as a percentage, and has a USB charging port.
- Testers enjoy the comfort of the long saddle and the reach-adjustable BMX-style handlebars.
- At a claimed 68.3lb, the Bee Tracer is lightweight for a moped-style e-bike.
- The bike has mounting points on the down tube for a second battery or a basket.
7 reasons not to buy
- The 30.3” seat height is unlikely to fit riders at the low end of the stated height range (5’1” to 6’3”), and a 5’11” tester says riders over 6’ may not fit.
- Typical of moped e-bikes, pedaling is uncomfortable.
- In testing, the bike struggles on steep hills due to the modest 500W power output and single-speed gearing.
- The single-speed gearing results in ghost pedaling at 13mph.
- With a top speed of 25mph using the throttle, the Bee Tracer exceeds e-bike limits in most states.
- The low IPX4 water resistance means the Bee Tracer shouldn't be ridden in heavy rain.
- An expert says the 10Ah battery is unlikely to deliver anything close to Bee Cool's claimed range.
Bottom line
Bee Cool's budget-friendly Bee Tracer is yet another moped-style e-bike. Like many competitors, it's uncomfortable to pedal, and it exceeds e-bike speed laws. Testing is limited, but reviewers appreciate the throttle acceleration, reliable brakes, easy assembly, and decent ride comfort. The 500W motor and single-speed gearing make steep hills a chore. The height range is exaggerated, and the claimed range, while untested, is extremely ambitious given the small 10Ah battery. Experts think the low price is appealing, but there isn't much else to shout about.Expert Reviews
