I test rode the demo version of the bike and was skeptical whether it’d fit me, and some of the functions weren’t even available on the test ride bike. But I still went ahead and got the bike in the Lyra color and it’s just a dream to ride! I love all the tech that’s built into this bike and just the simplicity and sleekness of the bike in general! It’s exceptional at what it does.
Also, it’s an eye candy for sure. I’ve already gotten so many compliments on the street by people who are mesmerised by the design :)
This bike is worth every penny! 🖤
Love this bike and since we had a mild winter down here in New Orleans in February, I have been on it almost every day. Since I am retired, I now have the time to invest, especially since the temperature has been in the 70's and 80's. It does have a couple of quirks that were an irritation though. When I first got the bike last May, and put it together, before I could complete a 6 mile ride, the seat came off from the post while I was riding. I notified Urtopia and they did send me the little "pieces" that comprised The inner workings under the seat, but I had all the trouble in the world trying to put it together. Maybe I'm just not as tech savvy as some of you. Went to 4 different bike shops and they wouldn't touch it, they said it was "proprietary". I almost gave up and let the bike sit there for months before I attempted another ride. No seat, right. Finally several months later on a whim, I went to a 5th shop and showed a guy (Diego) how the little rubber pieces fit together, and he was able to figure it out and finally put the seat back on for me. So far so good. I couldn't believe there is not a stabilizing bolt running through the seat like most other bikes. Instead there are 2 clamps. Well anyway, that was January, and due to a mild winter down here, I have been riding an average of 4 times a week. Since I am of retirement age, it is getting me up and out of the house and enjoying the scenery as well as the ride Not many/any hills here, just a few overpasses, so eco mode has suited me just fine and is easy to pedal around the Lakefront and City Park. I'm not trying to win the Tour de France at my age. My other pet peeves are the handlebars can't be raised. I am 6'2'' and would prefer to ride in a more upright position. Also, the battery power seems to dissipate somewhat, if I don't ride it for a couple of days, and I have yet to be able to sync the bluetooth on my I pod touch that has all my music, to the bike. On a positive side, I love the carbon fiber body, really light weight, and the Gates belt drive and the fact that the app records my rides and statistics which I have shared with the community. I love the smartbar and the lights and turning signals. By the way, is there anyway to read the statistics (mileage, speed, etc.) on the smartbar instead of the app? Overall, I am pleased, but I had to state my concerns, and hopefully Urtopia will rectify some of them in their next edition. I'll keep riding as long as the weather permits.
