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!

Bottom line
Initially, the GOTRAX Ranger appears to be another addition to a sea of budget moto-style e-bikes. However, given the price, the strong hydraulic brakes and a solid throttle-only range impress reviewers. Testers also praise the gradual throttle acceleration, stable handling, and ride comfort over bumpy pavement. All in all, the Ranger avoids many of the problems common in budget moto-style e-bikes, making it good value in an otherwise underwhelming segment.Expert Reviews
