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 Razor Rambler 20. In summary, this is what cyclists think.

5 reasons to buy

  • Experts and owners relish the Rambler 20’s motorcycle-inspired design, calling it a cheap way to enjoy Super73-like looks.
  • Testers and owners reckon this bike is “great” for short commutes.
  • The Rambler 20 comes with lights that include brake activation at the rear.
  • An expert says the 4” tires absorb bumps well and “easily” cope with soft dirt and dry sand.
  • Razor ships the Rambler 20 almost fully assembled. Owners appreciate the quick and easy fitting of the handlebar and pedals.

9 reasons not to buy

  • Owners complain about the 270Wh battery’s tiny range, getting just 5 to 12 miles on flat terrain.
  • The frame is made from cheap and heavy mild steel. An expert says the welds are “not pretty.”
  • An expert says the single gear makes pedaling hard when pulling away or trying to maintain higher speeds.
  • One tester says the wide Q-factor impedes comfortable pedaling and the low seat height forces riders over 5’7” to sit all the way back on the saddle.
  • An expert bemoans the small 160mm brake rotors on such a “heavy” bike.
  • At 69.7lb the bike is hard to lift or carry.
  • Owners say the lack of suspension results in a “rough” ride.
  • Buyers complain about “noisy” brakes, and one experiences display problems and multiple punctures.
  • The bike doesn’t come with fenders. An owner cannot find any fenders that fit this bike.

Bottom line

Razor’s Rambler 20 is a budget-priced motorcycle-style electric bike with a 500W motor and a tiny 270Wh battery. Owners and experts appreciate the affordable price and eye-catching looks but are unimpressed by the cheap frame. Furthermore, despite the lack of suspension or gearing, this bike is heavy, under-braked, and seriously lacking battery range. It’s also cramped and hard to pedal. Owners complain about noisy brakes, punctures, and the unavailability of fenders. It is hard to recommend any moto-style e-bike at this price point. The Razor Rambler 20 is no exception to this rule.

Razor Rambler 20 First Range Test

… I was out probably exactly an hour and… my phone told me I was at 12.5 miles, and then the other app that I was on was saying 12.9 miles.
