4 reasons not to buy
- One expert’s thighs rubbed against the ZOOZ’s wide seat unless they were standing.

- The ZOOZ’s long seat is not adjustable.
- A reviewer noted that ZOOZ bikes did not climb hills powerfully using only throttle.
Bottom line
The ZOOZ Urban Ultralight is a unique and powerful BMX-inspired e-bike. It comes in three models with three different motor sizes; the UU250, UU750 and UU1100. The UU250 is road-legal. In some configurations, the more powerful bikes are not. They’re too fast and too powerful. With a long, chopper-style seat and BMX frame, ZOOZ bikes are primarily designed to cruise, under heavy throttle application. Reviewers said that the ZOOZ Urban Ultralight’s seating position is not the best on long pedaling rides, despite a considerable 40-mile maximum range (or 20 miles on full-throttle). Some experts would prefer a torque sensor, over the ZOOZ’s equipped pedal sensor. Owners were happy to ride this bike like a moped or scrambler-type motorbike. It’s simple, good-looking and by all accounts, very fun.Expert Reviews
