Summary
Ridstar's Q20 is a moto-style full-suspension electric bike with a choice of three battery capacities and single or dual-motor configurations. The "smooth" power, good speed, hill-climbing ability, and "respectable" range impress testers, who say this bike is huge fun on roads and light trails. Reviewers also praise the accessories, and Ridstar customer support wins fans among owners. Testers and owners agree the "basic" suspension is too soft, the tires are too thin, and the bike is unsuited to short riders. Though the mid-tier Q20 is deemed "excellent" value, the heavy Q20 Pro is "relatively expensive."
