Summary of Reviews

9 reasons to buy

  • At 39 lb, the Wing Freedom X is lightweight for an e-bike.
  • The Freedom X has torque and cadence sensors for more intuitive pedal assist.
  • This bike has a motion-sensitive, fob-activated alarm.
  • The Freedom X features frame-integrated lights with rear brake activation.
  • Reviewers compliment the comfort of the upright riding position, saddle, swept-back handlebars, and ergonomic grips.
  • Testers appreciate the sleek looks of the seamlessly integrated battery, lights, and display.
  • The Freedom X's battery can be locked for security or removed for charging.
  • With moderate-width tires and a low center of gravity, the Freedom X is agile.
  • The bike comes with a two-year warranty on its frame and electronics.

5 reasons not to buy

  • The responsiveness of the torque sensor disappoints some users and testers.
  • Wing says this one-size-only bike fits riders 5'6" to 6'4". Smaller riders will have to look elsewhere.
  • Testers and users complain about squealing brakes.
  • A reviewer says the mechanical disc brakes lack power and responsiveness.
  • More than a year after Wing said they "transformed" their customer service team, owners still express frustration with "poor" customer service.

Bottom line

Wing Bikes' Freedom X is a Class 3 urban e-commuter with integrated lights and a fob-operated anti-theft system. Buyers have a choice of three batteries offering a purported 35, 45, or 60 miles of range. The bike's comfort, sleek looks, and security features impress. Thanks to a relatively low weight of 39lb, a low center of gravity, and slim Kenda tires, the bike proves agile and fun to ride. However, experts find the torque sensor and mechanical brakes underwhelming. Location tracking and racks cost extra. Overall, reviewers and users find the Freedom X offers good value as a stylish runaround.

Review: Wing Freedom X

If good looks, speed, and affordability matter when you’re shopping for an electric bike, this one checks all the boxes. I think the Freedom 2 is better value over the X. Regardless of which model you go with, you’re getting a lot for your money.

Wing Freedom X Is an Affordable VanMoof Look-Alike E-Bike

… I’m pleasantly surprised by this bike. It rides nice, it looks nice, I think it’s a practical commuter… it’s not a bad bike especially considering the price. The only real downside… might possibly be the brakes.

My Wing Bikes – Freedom X Review

I’ve had the bike for a month and a half and I have almost 500 miles on it. What I love about my Freedom X is tackling those hills that otherwise, I’ll be standing up pedaling, huffing and puffing – with this Wing bike that’s all gone. It’s an amazing purchase as an entry-level bike.

Wing Bikes Freedom X Black and Silver Review

All-in-all guys, I really, really like the bikes. I’m going to keep them for a long time. I’m happy with the purchase. One deciding factor for me, between a Van Moof and this, is that the Freedom X’s low battery means a lower center of gravity.
