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
The Heybike Ranger is a fat-tire folding e-bike with decent range, power, and off-road capabilities. The bike earns praise for its comfort, approachable design, folding convenience, and high payload capacity. However, its high weight and reports of failing electronics and misaligned brakes lead to mixed feedback and worries about quality control. When it works, reviewers regard the Heybike Ranger as a well-rounded entry-level e-bike, but caution is advised for potential buyers.Expert Reviews
