Attractive, easy to adjust fit, comfortable- what more could you want?
I have no qualms about getting this bike. Delivery was fast and it was super easy to put together. The only problem I had was the mirror will not fit the handlebars which appears to be caused by the size of the handle grips. Otherwise it is awesome.
Very happy with my purchase, fast delivery, very good build quality. When I bought it, I added a torque sensor and I love how it works. Following my order, I contacted Customer Service twice, and to my great surprise, even though these requests were made on a Saturday, I received a response the same day.
Pulled back handle bars for V 2 Elegant. Had them installed at BC e-bikes in Nanaimo. Went well , haven’t had a chance to get out in the road yet ! Very impressed with how they were packaged from shipping ! Kudos to your shipping dept.
I’ve been riding this bike for a while now, and I wanted to share a balanced perspective for anyone considering it.
The Pros:
First off, the performance is outstanding. The power output exceeded my expectations, making it a breeze to tackle slopes. The ride quality is also worth mentioning—it is incredibly comfortable and smooth, which I really appreciate during longer rides around Victoria.
The Cons & Safety Warnings:
However, there are a few practical drawbacks to keep in mind:
Heavy Weight: This bike is quite heavy. This makes it a bit of a struggle when maneuvering into elevators or finding a spot for indoor storage.
Low Pedal Clearance: The pedals sit relatively low to the ground. You need to be very careful when cornering.
My Experience (Important Lesson):
I actually had a crash because of the low clearance. I made the mistake of leaning into a sharp right turn as if I were on a standard, lighter bike. My right pedal struck the ground, causing me to lose balance and fall. While I'm glad the bike didn't land on top of me (which could have been serious given its weight), I did sustain some injuries.
Final Verdict:
It is a fantastic bike in terms of sheer performance, but the low pedal height is definitely an area that needs improvement. If you buy this, please be mindful of your pedal position during turns, and be prepared for the heavy lifting!
charger works fine.
5 stars to Voltbike for their fast service and 1 star to purolator as i have not yet received my battery, don t know where it is and in what wheather condition either , as a long time e bike owner i have always taken very good care of my battery as it is a very important part of an e bike , hope this does not negatively impact the long term life of the battery.
Changed the planetary gears in one of our Yukon750's that had started making a horrendous noise. Now good as new with almost 8000km.
Super excited to buy this and its winter. So I’ve only been able to make short trips but I’m super happy with it.
Got my wife the Yukon V2 for Xmas and she really loves it. Great build quality overall and despite a small part being damaged (from factory or shipping) Voltbike immediately send out a replacement at no cost. Easy ordering experience and great customer service so far. Highly recommend Voltbike.
Dear Richard,
Thank you for taking the time to share your experience with our Yukon V2 ebike. We are thrilled to hear that your wife loves it and that you had a positive ordering experience with us. We apologize for the damaged part and are happy to hear that our customer service team was able to promptly assist you. We appreciate your recommendation and hope you continue to enjoy your Voltbike. Ride on!
Best,
Voltbike Team
This is an awesome and must-have upgrade for an e-bike and especially for Canadian winters when it dark early. Also great for visibility. Love the different intensity/brightness settings.
Suggestion to add a flashing/blinking setting would be nice.
Hi Curt!
Thank you for your review of our Add-ons: Starfire Twin Force. We are so glad to hear that you find it to be a great upgrade and a must-have for winter riding. We agree that it's perfect for staying visible during those dark Canadian evenings.
I believe it has the flashing/blinking setting already, you would just need to double tap your light button quickly and it should start flashing.
Best,
Voltbike Customer Service
Being on disability not able to work no credit bad credit it's just in my dreams of having one . One day
I bought the wife the curved handlebars for her Elegent. She loves them. Now she can sit more upright when she rides. Simple to swap out old ones, fit perfect.

We needed to replace the battery lock on one of our e-bikes. Jason gave us some options then provided us with a personal video created by the techs in their shop, on how to remove the old one and install the new.
They took care of shipping it from PQ to Apache Junction Arizona and we had it in hand 5 days later. Excellent support
Je suis très satisfaite de mon casque de vélo il confortable et solide
This is the fifth Volt Bike we have purchased since 2017. I absolutely like the bikes. So far no problems with the bikes and I have put thousands of kilometers on a couple of them. I purchased the V2 Elegant to leave at my daughters place when we visit her. I have only rode it about 20 kilometers but find it a very quiet smooth ride. I am looking forward to riding it more. It was easy to assemble and it looks great. It is my first step through bike and I am enjoying that as well as I am an older male and it makes it a little easier for me to get on and go. The curved handle bars I added on make it very comfortable as well.
