It took a lot longer to install than anticipated. But the worst was that none of the Allen keys was included and it took me 3 days to get the right ones. First my set of keys had a couple sizes missing. At the hardware store next day I saw a set in sales bin. Once home I realized they were Imperial and useless. Another trip to the hardware store the next day to acquire a metric set. Finally, 3 days later and $16 lighter I could start installing...
Love my new flash bike. Sleek , smooth , fast and easy to set up. I did a lot of research on EBikes before pulling the trigger on this one. No regrets so far. Andrew from Riverside,Ca
I tested my bike on a 20 miles route with several gradients 7% to 14% got home with 2 bars left on the Battery ( I paddled all of the route) so far so good. Ok will be riding this bike 54 miles round trip Monday - Saturday I hoping that this bike will help me save $400 to $500 per month ( Gas, toll road and wear and tear of my Vehicle plus I will burn some Fat 😎😎😎.
Shipping was expensive but prompt. Difficult if not impossible,e to find except at Flash. Buy a few and makes shipping cost better.
Love the bike. Very comfortable to ride and plenty of power for my 215 lb frame and a few additional items. The app gave me some problems that still need to be worked out and in the future I hope the batteries become more efficient to last longer. All-in-all I would buy another one if I had to.
With the old rack, it covered the rear light. As usual, Michael was great installing the new rack with the extended light.
I had reached out to Flash about an issue that I was experiencing and they went above and beyond to fix it. The gave me amazing advice, guided me on what I needed to do, helped me selecting the parts I needed and even included and extra part I needed to fix something else that I didn’t know but they identified in the photo I submitted. I’ve been with the company as one of the first backers of the Flash V1 and I would recommend Flash to everyone based on the quality of product and their amazing customer service. This is the model of how all businesses should treat their customers.

Just received my V1 Comuter today. Assembly was very easy. Living in Southern Oregon, anywhere I go there are hills. These hills has always been a struggle for me whenever I ride. Now that I'm getting older, my other bike has sat for quite a while. I love to bike. Flash V1 has now given me another chance to pursue my passion. I took it out on its maiden voyage this afternoon and these Oregon hills are no match for the power of the V1. Thank you Flash for giving me another chance of pursuing my passion, and for the deal. If I could give it more than 5 stars, I would.
I'd be happy to give feedback after i receive the order,
Delivery is expected later this week,
all the best,
Brett
Be very careful with the screws, they are very brittle and the heads snap off very easily. There are no instructions and when you email for them they never get back to you. One of the screws the head broke off as I was hand turning it before even using a tool. The screw had to be taken out with a special tool and I had to buy a whole new screw. The screws are very brittle. Once it was installed it looked great.
I ordered a battery charger it was exactly as advertised, always best to buy the right charger for your Flash E Bike
Have not been able to ride the bike yet due to inclement weather. Very frustrating.
I'm a new customer of the FLASH E-Bike this company truly rocks in every way possible they are definitely on the rise, customer service impeccable I got what I ordered just as describe on the shop.flashbike.io site. it's a shame the rating scale only goes to 5 FLASH scores a 10 in my book, what are you waiting for ? order your FLASH E-Bike you won't be disappointed, Bert B.
Arrived within two days of purchase! Unboxed and had it together within 30 minutes! Have been riding it for about a week and couldn’t be happier with every feature and the app is very awesome as well!
If this is your daily commuter then it rests exactly where you would need it.
The Flash is a awesome bike! Customer service has been flawless. I just recently purchased the rear bike rack with the light extension. I’m very happy with the quality of the rack and I do think it’s worth the price. Don’t forget your touch up paint. It’s best to get what you’re need in one order to save on shipping!
The bike went together very well, thanks to the online videos (watch them). Although the weather in Eugene, OR has not been very bike friendly, I rode around in the street in front of my house. Totally impressed! Appears to be high quality, responsive, and exciting to ride. I love it. Can't wait for warmer weather.
I only had to re-straighten the stem. And I'll snug up the brake cables later. I wish it had water bottle bosses.
Assembled bike everything was included looks great. When the weather gets warmer will be able to ride it more.
