My wife and I rode 52 miles (26 miles out and back) on the Katy trail in Missouri yesterday on our Chord-X and Carbon 1 Pro yesterday. The prior day we did 31 miles total after a late start.
Great trip!
Rode the carriage paths in Acadia National Park on my Carbon 1 Pro. At 7:00 am I had the park all to myself. The only thing crossing my path was a porcupine, red squirrel, deer and a few ruffed grouse. The foliage is now exploding with color.
I like this bike, I ride it on hilly terrain and got about 34 miles out of it. I ride it in level 1, 2, 3, and sometimes turbo, and 0 power on the downhill. I weigh about 220 so a lighter person would have gone farther. The ride was smooth. I will probably get a seat post with suspension for the carriage roads (gravel roads).

My Urtopia E-Bike Performed FLAWLESSLY !!!!! Gear Shifting was Perfect - Was able to Conserve Battery Power the whole way. Cant wait do it again Nexr Year.
Received, assembled, did a short first ride - all-in-all a good day one 😀
I did the Bike the Bay ride today in San Diego. Was awesome. But had a rear fender failure and I want to shout to Sandy for helping me. Made it the best Bucket list event ever.
Awesome ride with my Carbon Pro At the “Bike the Bay ride” event in San Diego
My first ride, 75 year old legs made it up the hills around the house. Just used boost 2.
I love it! So smooth to ride and I can change the speed easily using the voice command, I can also exercise if I want on this e-bike.
I wanted to comment on the posts that mention the Carbon 1 Pro would be even better if it had a throttle. Well, it kinda does. If you are in turbo mode, all you need to do is keep the crank turning (at any speed) and you will be propelled.
Absolutely no effort.
That is my 2cents.
🙂. Have a great day everyone.....
This past weekend, I completed the STP 2024, a 206-mile ride from Seattle to Portland, riding my Urtopia Carbon 1 Pro. As a loyal customer of Urtopia (I also own a Carbon 1s), I wanted to share with this group the highs and lows of this adventure:
Pros:
- Battery Life: With an extra battery, I got 108 miles on the first day and nearly 99 miles on the second. The maximum range per battery was 77 miles, riding mostly with support levels 1 or 2.
- Configurable Assistance: The ability to fine-tune the assistance level was crucial. Increasing the assistance slightly to 55% on level 2 helped tackle the steepest climbs.
- My Accessories: I fitted my bike with my Brooks saddle, Shimano pedals, Ergonomic handlebar grips and a new suspension seat post. It made a significant positive impact. Lots of comfort and no pain.
Cons:
- Stock Accessories: The kickstand fell off within the first 20 miles. I have no idea how it happened.
- Pedals: The original pedals were of poor quality and broke a few days before the ride, necessitating replacement.
- Fenders: The pre-installed rear fenders scratched the tire and eventually broke.
Overall, I'm still a fan of Urtopia. However, to become the perfect bike, Urtopia really needs to improve the quality of its stock accessories or let us select better ones during the checkout process.
April 16 was the anniversary of my birth. On that morning my wife sent me to the garage to get her things in the car and what to my surprise was sitting in the garage covered in wrapping paper? Best Birthday gift ever. I've already put like 360 miles on it and I am loving it.
I received the bike on June 12 and I have not ridden it far enough to really say. But it is very nice to go for a short ride and the pedal assist is fantastic.
I'm pleased with the luggage rack. My panniers hang on it perfectly and the beefy construction makes it look great on the bike.
Great riding weather this morning. It was a great ride.

I have the Urtopia 2 and im liking it X 2 rides a 20 mile and a 13 mile it felt good and I was pleased with the battery power consumption. I was on 0-1 mainly and multiple turbos to get across crossings and checking out the feel for the assist.
Need to check out the hills soon in Mammoth Lakes here i come.
The Carbon 1 Pro arrived yesterday and I'm super happy so far. Definitely need a longer seatpost.
I received my most awaited carbon 1 PRO as a birthday gift for myself and it was all that I hoped for.
The size is perfect and the pedal assistance and gears help to climb hills.
Did I mention that I smile when I ride my bike? it would be more perfect if it has a throttle.
So far we love this bike, definitely gets a 5 star though I have not rode it far enough to really say but it is very nice to go for a short ride and the peddle assist is fantastic.
Can't believe they have used a Toray Carbon fiber on this bike, this is worth the price.
I love how their torque sensor delivers power smoothly, and blends perfectly while pedaling, unlike other bikes pushing you so strong at the beginning (gives me a heart attack at first).
My last few rides, I’ve seen a lot of wildlife. I’m loving this bike.
