from 205 reviewsRides so nice. Just wish it was 33 pounds like the men’s bikes. Motor is quiet and it looks great
Wonderful bike! Fun to ride.
My bike is a couple of years old now, and I still love it. I am moved to write this review because a couple of people have asked me for Christmas present suggestions. I tell my friends that they will love a Story bike the minute they get it and they will still love it years from now.
Great looking bikes and easy assembly. Waiting on a couple of accessaries. Looking forward to major use.
I love that this is a relatively lightweight and attractive e-bike, easy to assemble, and smooth ride. I was worried about getting an e-bike and not getting enough exercise, but it really helps with hills and works great when the battery is turned off.
I like the bike helmet - thanks
I love my step through bike. I also had already purchased the commuter bike version but the center bar was too high for me. My husband rides that one and loves it as well. He is an engineer and is very impressed with the quality. I especially like that these bikes don't really look like electric bikes. They really look retro!
Many years I have thought of buying an Ebike but they all looked heavy and clunky. I finally broke down and bought the Story Commuter with cash left over on a used car sale. Now I do my short errands by bike instead of car and have already gotten compliments, then shock when I tell people it is battery assist.
Very Happy.
My husband and I both ordered Story bikes recently with a goal of using our car less often, he ordered a street bike and I ordered the step through. Since we’ve received our bikes we’ve been using them regularly for everyday errands, commuting, and for fun- we love them! The bikes are easy to assemble and adjust, they’re comfortable, the assist makes the hills around our house approachable, and they get lots of compliments on their looks too.
I’ve also had a great experience with the service team at Story as well. During the order, I reached out to customer service to swap color and they handled it immediately, I also had a flat tire after shipment and they handled that quickly and efficiently as well.
I would definitely recommend the bikes to any friends or family considering them. They’re a great value and Story has been a wonderful company to work with.
We are so happy with our purchase. It’s darling, comfortable and I’d buy it again!!
To tell the truth I just received my bike today and have not used the electric function. But, at the outset I can say this is a very high quality product made with an eye to detail, functionality and beauty. I'm impressed. I would recommend 1) a sheet of paper in the package explaining that the assembly is outlined in a video; that was not immediately evident; 2) A video on the display function would be helpful, 3) You should consider including a schrader to presta tire pump adaptor, as most buyers will not have presta pumps, and will want to ride their bikes. The tires do arrive at about 3/4 pressure so can be ridden. But overall great work making this high quality and functional product available.
I purchased this bike to help me make the transition to a more car-free lifestyle. I'm using it to commute 5 miles (one way) to work and to run errands around town. My city is not very bike-friendly (working on it!), and I have to carry the bike up a flight of stairs, so I was searching for a lightweight e-bike that could still get me around town fast enough and without having to charge it at work between rides. Story Bikes Commuter Bike was the first bike that seemed to fit all the "must-haves" on my checklist with a great price point. I also loved their mission and give-back program. I have had my bike for about a week and a half so far and couldn't be happier. Couldn't recommend enough. If you're like I was a month ago doing hours and hours of research and unsure of what bike to purchase, my advice would be to stop looking and pick one from Story Bikes!
I live in NYC and started to use the local citi bikes to get more movement in and avoid the subway. I realized having my own e-bike could be a game changer and a friend of mine told me about Story Bikes. I got my bike within a week after ordering. It came with everything assembled except the pedals, handle bar, and needing to put on the LCD screen and bell on the handle bars. I watched the youtube video tutorial to help me put it together (which I recommend) and story bike's chat system online was very responsive to any questions I asked. I've put about 65 miles on the bike so far and here's what I love about it:
+ The seat it comes with is comfortable. I thought I would have to change it but it's been great so far.
+ I've gotten a lot of compliments on the bike itself, it's sleek and doesn't look like a standard e-bike.
+ It's lighter weight than other e-bikes, so it's easy to handle, also manages bumpier roads well.
+ Breaks are responsive.
+ Love that there's 5 speeds of pedal assist, many times I don't have to go above 3 out of the 5 speeds to get where I need to go, or up hills. The torque sensor also means I can pull off from stops with ease.
+ It charges up pretty fast, can go from 0% to 100% battery in about 3-4 hours.
small things I haven't liked:
+ the rear fender was twisted into the back bike spokes when it arrived. It wasn't too hard to fix but the rear fender needing to be attached is a new thing they have changed according to the info I got, and don't currently have in the youtube tutorial when putting the bike together, but the chat system online was very helpful with this.
+ the stitching on the leather hand grips on the handle bars are already starting to fray a little bit, and concerned about the grips starting to wear a bit so soon.
+ the battery isn't the strongest you'll be able to find out there (and it's a good deal still for the price). I can get about 15 miles on the bike when at the highest speed assist, and about 25 miles when I keep the speed assist below 3. I'm also a thick person so your miles will vary but if you ride frequently and take longer rides like I do, you'll have to charge it pretty frequently.
Overall if you're looking for a solid, pretty, affordable e-bike, can't recommend a better option!
Love my new e step through bike. Easy to use, easy to get on and off.
The bike is a welcome addition to my bicycle park. I am able to manage the Seattle area hills and still have to work doing that (nice!). She seems to have a similar weight as my 26-year old Trek "Schlepper", which is awesome, because you could still ride home if the battery gave up on you (that has not happened), or perhaps even put her on a bus rack (not planned at this point). Vaude-bicycle bags fit well, so I'll be able to run shopping errands here. More another time when I am more experienced.
