The bike must be the same color and size, sold in the US and not include the use of a coupon.

Facts
Summary of Reviews
We have read all expert and user reviews on the Super73-R Adventure. In summary, this is what cyclists think.
11 reasons to buy
- A tester says the R Adventure is “ultra-comfortable” and glides over pretty large potholes.
- The “high quality” suspension includes a dual-crown inverted fork and DNM coil-spring shock, both adjustable for preload, compression, and rebound.
- Reviewers highlight the impact absorption of the suspension, seat, and 5-inch-wide tires.
- The R Adventure comes with fenders and integrated lights with brake light activation.
- Multiple testers praise the “really good” Tektro Dorado hydraulic brakes.
- The seat has room for two people, and experts find it comfortable.
- The 750W motor and torque sensor provide responsive, peppy power in testing.
- Testers agree the GRZLY tires provide good traction on varied terrains.
- Reviewers find the R Adventure’s “fantastic” looks attract a lot of compliments.
- Several testers say the loud horn improves safety in traffic.
- Experts note that the 8-speed gearing is “helpful” when pulling away, pedaling at high speeds, and climbing hills.
13 reasons not to buy
- The R Adventure is “nearly impossible” to pedal comfortably.
- Super73 users complain about damaged bikes and poor customer service.
- Experts consider this bike very expensive for the performance it delivers.
- The R Adventure’s 88lb weight makes it hard to lift onto a bike rack and carry up stairs.
- Testers feel the display is too small and lacks information.
- Modifying top speed and viewing most ride metrics requires a “crash-prone” app.
- The R Adventure suffers from “buggy” Bluetooth, so connecting to the app doesn’t always work.
- The bike resets to Class 2 each time it’s powered on, frustrating users and experts.
- Experts agree the horn is too loud to use around pedestrians and other cyclists.
- A full charge takes at least 10 hours.
- The R Adventure’s short fenders don’t stop water and dirt, according to one tester.
- An expert says uphill performance is poor. A user complains that the inability to climb a hill on their shopping commute makes the bike useless.
- According to reviewers, the stated range of 75 miles is exaggerated.
Bottom line
The Super73-R Adventure is a moto-style e-bike with full suspension and room for a passenger. Experts and users praise the looks, comfortable ride, and fun performance on flat terrain. Testers also highlight the above-average suspension and brakes. But this bike is pricey, heavy, and offers questionable range and hill-climbing ability. There have been no reported problems with this frame, but it appears to be the same as other Super73 frames, which suffer from cracks. In the absence of evidence that this problem has been addressed, it is hard to recommend the Super73-R Adventure.Expert Reviews
