Bike Size Charts

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!

Summary of Reviews

We have read all expert and user reviews on the NAKTO F2. In summary, this is what cyclists think.

10 reasons to buy

  • NAKTO states the F2 can carry up to 400lb.
  • The F2 sports fenders, a “bright” headlight, a “loud” horn, and a “beefy” kickstand.
  • Testers say the suspension, big tires, plush seat, and ergonomic grips provide a “very comfortable” ride on pavement, grass, and light trails.
  • The F2 arrives almost fully assembled; only the handlebars, display, and pedals need to be fitted.
  • Testers and owners compliment the rugged, motorcycle-style looks and blacked-out finish.
  • Experts say the F2 has sufficient room and power to carry a passenger.
  • Reviewers appreciate the “smooth” power delivery.
  • Testers say the NAKTO F2 offers Super73-like fun at a very accessible price.
  • The display is “really nice” and easy to read in bright sunlight.
  • The stated height range is 4’10”–5’9”. Testers think taller riders will fit but may lack full leg extension when pedaling.

11 reasons not to buy

  • The NAKTO website is littered with mistakes, sorely lacking in specifications, and generally not confidence-inspiring.
  • A reviewer manages just 23 miles of range in testing.
  • The rear brake cable is routed through one of the rear shocks. This would be funny if it weren’t so worrying.
  • The F2’s 83lb makes it challenging to lift and transport.
  • Experts find the “creaky” suspension bottoms out over big bumps and isn’t truly suited to off-road riding.
  • Reviewers lament the lack of a rear light.
  • A tester bemoans the sudden loss of power when the battery runs out. Other e-bikes provide a few miles of ‘get home’ reserve.
  • An expert feels the electronics are too exposed.
  • Testers worry about the proximity of the chain to the tire in first gear.
  • A reviewer highlights the lack of safety certification on the battery.
  • The user manual is generic, lacks useful model-specific information, and is of poor quality, even by the low standards of budget e-bike brands.

Bottom line

NAKTO’s F2 is a moped-style e-bike that appears to mimic offerings from Super73, itself hardly a model of quality and customer satisfaction. The comedy of errors that passes for NAKTO's website does little to dispel initial doubts. Testers claim to be impressed by the F2’s design, quality, and performance, but NAKTO owners present a litany of woe involving broken bikes and non-existent aftersales service. Any attraction to the F2’s styling and apparent value as a budget Super73 alternative needs to be tempered by questions about the long-term reliability of NAKTO’s bikes and customer support.

Affordable Super73 Alternative Is Here! NAKTO F2 E-Bike

Honestly, despite some of those shortcomings, like I said the shifting thing is a little bit wonky on it, I’m actually really pleased with this.

NAKTO F2 Cheap Super73 Clone – What’s the Catch?

… the NAKTO F2 is a powerful e-bike that is good for hills. It’s good with [a] passenger, and it’s an overall joy to use.

It is a pretty cool bike, looks like a motorcycle to be hones, a mockup of the Super73, which is pretty cool, massively expensive compared to this one.

This is pretty much like a good startup. If you’re really thinking about getting an electric bike, this would be the fun way to do it.

NAKTO F2 E-Bike Review: Affordable & Solid! The Best Radrunner & Super73 Alternative?

… hopefully they’ve ironed out some of those issues… so keep an eye out for things like that over time, and then other than that, it seems solid enough to hold up, so I think it’s a pretty decent buy.

I’m a little bit, maybe, too tall for it, but for the teenagers, for the kids, I think this is one of the best bikes you can get for the price.
