Since the turn of the century, electric bikes have been growing steadily in popularity. Improvements to battery technology mean that for the average consumer, the prices are now within a reasonable range.
In under 5 years, Ancheer Electric Bikes have been able to gain a significant foothold in the e-bike market with the help of distribution giant Amazon. Their highly competitive, low-cost product offerings appeal mostly to entry-level e-bike users. From their warehouse in Los Angeles, they have been able to develop key relationships with manufacturers in Taiwan and China which, when paired with a mostly online business model, has allowed them to offer products for a great value.
Ancheer is dedicated to delivering world-class customer service alongside a competitive warranty (with an extended warranty for Amazon purchases), as well as free shipping within the United States and most of Europe.
Ancheer’s main selling point is the low-price/high-spec design of the bikes, with front suspension and disk brakes common features on their bikes but generally unseen in similarly priced alternatives. Users are often pleasantly surprised by performance and reliability, with one Amazon reviewer stating “at this price, there is no better alternative.”
Ancheer bikes come in 4 different styles in 6 different wheel sizes (12”, 14”, 16”, 20”, 26” 27.5”). Each bike has an aluminum alloy frame, resulting in a lightweight feel, and Shimano components.
