Questions riders ask
- Where can I get my Ride1Up fixed?
- 2 network shops list Ride1Up among the brands they work on. Many shops work on other brands too, so call and give them your model.
- Where do I find the manual for my Ride1Up?
- Ride1Up posts manuals and support on its own site. We link to it on this page.
- Why does a rear flat cost more on a hub-motor Ride1Up?
- The rear wheel holds the motor, so the tech has to unplug the motor cable and handle a heavier wheel to change the tube. Many shops price it separately for that reason.
- Is it worth repairing, or should I replace it?
- Most problems, like flats, brakes, a loose plug or a worn chain, cost far less to fix than a new bike. Our repair-or-replace guide walks through when a repair makes sense, and a shop can give you a quote before any work.
