Rating a 3, but it's because the purchase had major problems... and because I believe the bike probably warrants a 4 or 5, though I never got to ride it. While you're at it check the reviews for the girls model (Yukon Trails Women's Xpolrer Sport Hybrid Electric Bike (26-Inch)). In January 2013, Amazon has shipped the girl's bike to guys, and the male model to girls. SUGGESTION #1 - When buying THIS bike... contact Amazon and verify the problem's been resolved. They put a hold on guy's bikes (smartly) but not on the girl's bike (which they probably should too). SUGGESTION #2 - When the box arrives... check the box for damage, check the PICTURE on the box, verify the model number is what you are expecting and check the packing slip... ALL BEFORE YOU OPEN THE BOX. In my excitement, I opened the box, took the bike out, got rid of the box (which was damp and had damage) and then unwrapped all the taped on packing stuff, and put the seat and handle bars and front tire on. And then I looked at it, and had that Ah-ha moment - Ah-ha, I'm an idiot... it's a girl's bike! So SUGGESTION #3, don't do anything to destroy the box when you open it and if the box doesn't look good enough to use a 2nd time, then call Amazon or the Shipper and find out your options. FYI... getting a new box and having the bike repacked and shipped back could cost another $175+ (although would likely be refunded). My bike had two broken plastic parts, which is related I believe to how well the manufacturer packs them (or in this case, how well it doesn't - specifically the PAS and bike light need added protection.) Other than that, the bike looked like it was worth the now $1000+ price tag. The major components were all quality parts, and built solidly. SUGGESTION #4 - If you're going to buy an electric bike online, I still think, even with my problems, that Amazon's a great place to do it from. This was a strange and unusual problem, so it took some time, so it took some time to resolve, but you can count on Amazon to handle refunds promptly, and completely and probably exchanges too. Living in a 2nd floor apt, I decided the bike was heavier and bulkier than I expected, so I declined getting another.Most of the consumer Reviews tell that the "Yukon Trails Men's Xpolrer Sport Hybrid Electric Bike (26-Inch)" are high quality item.
