Magnum Melody
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!

- Testers praise the ride comfort.
- Experts relish the motor’s smooth, responsive power delivery, whether using the cadence or torque sensor.
- In a max-assist range test in torque-sensing mode, a 190lb reviewer covers 35.7 miles on a paved route.

7 reasons not to buy
- In a standardized hill test by one publication, the Melody climbs more slowly than competing e-commuters.
- At a tested 72.2lb, the Melody is heavy for an e-commuter.
- A tester complains of frame flex.
- The 32" minimum seat height could pose a challenge for riders at the low end of the stated 5’1” to 6’4” height range.
- The slow 2A charger yields lengthy charge times.
- The stem-integrated display makes replacement difficult.
- One buyer reports receiving the bike with dents and scratches on arrival.
Bottom line
Reviewers agree the Magnum Melody checks most boxes for a comfort-focused e-commuter. The upright riding position, adjustable stem, decent suspension fork, and ergonomic touchpoints make for a comfortable ride over pavement. Testers also praise the long range, strong brakes, ride customizability, and responsive power delivery. However, the high weight, weak climbing power, frame flex, and inaccurate sizing are disappointing. Given the price point, reviewers expected more accessories or security features. Although testing is limited, experts think the Melody is a solid choice for general urban rides and commuting.Expert Reviews
