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 Puckipuppy GoldenR Pro. In summary, this is what cyclists think. Updated Mar 22, 2026 by Amar Punekar.

11 reasons to buy

  • Experts praise the smooth and responsive pedal assist.
  • In testing, the bike climbs steep inclines easily using the throttle in dual-motor mode.
  • Using max assist and both motors, a 180lb reviewer gets 34 miles of range on a paved route.
  • Riders can switch between using the rear motor or both motors at the push of a button.
  • Testers find the GoldenR Pro comfortable over light off-road terrain.
  • This bike includes a rear rack rated for 55lb, fenders, a headlight, and a taillight with brake activation and turn signals.
  • The GoldenR Pro has an above-average payload capacity of 400lb.
  • Experts appreciate the bike’s stable and predictable handling.
  • The display is removable.
  • The bike’s IPX6 and the battery’s IPX7 water resistance ratings are higher than average.
  • The GoldenR Pro is available in five colorways, including a camo finish.

10 reasons not to buy

  • With less than 4" of seat height adjustment, the stated height range (5’4” to 6’6”) is wildly inaccurate. One expert says the real range is around 5’8” to 6’1”.
  • Riders above 5'11" complain of a cramped and uncomfortable, forward-leaning riding position due to the fixed stem and limited seatpost adjustment.
  • In testing, the Logan hydraulic disc brakes deliver below-average stopping power.
  • Experts say the non-adjustable rear suspension is basic and bouncy.
  • Testers report rattling fenders and kickstands over bumpy terrain.
  • The slow 2A takes around 10 hours to charge the battery.
  • One reviewer reports inconsistent throttle power delivery.
  • The dual motor power and unlocked throttle speed breach e-bike regulations.
  • Assembly is “tedious” and time-consuming, according to reviewers.
  • The display is unreadable through polarized sunglasses, and the battery readout is erratic.

Bottom line

Testers agree the Puckipuppy GoldenR Pro offers a good mix of power, range, and comfort at a reasonable price. The Pro adds a torque sensor, 8-speed drivetrain, and removable display over the standard GoldenR. The dual motors (500W rear, 350W front) deliver strong acceleration and climbing performance, though throttle power delivery is inconsistent. The bike isn't the "off-road leader" Puckipuppy claims, but it provides light off-road capabilities. The biggest hurdles are the limited fit, non-adjustable rear suspension, subpar brakes, and rattling components. Reviewers think the GoldenR Pro offers solid value, but there's a lot of room for improvement.
