Bottom line
The Gyroor C3 is a mini electric bike with 14" wheels, foldable bars and pedals, and a 450W motor. It's deemed suitable for teenagers or short adults; heavier and taller riders find it uncomfortable and lacking power. While some owners find the "tiny" bike fun and practical for commuting, others perceive it as "goofy" or toy-like. Experts and owners highlight the unsteady ride, and multiple buyers complain about broken or failing parts, shipping damage, and poor customer support. Additionally, in 2022, Gyroor recalled all C3 bikes with 10S4P battery packs due to fire incidents. Given its shortcomings, the C3 is hard to recommend.Expert Reviews
