The Pedalwise team started this page from official manuals, support pages and repair videos. Fixed this yourself, or spotted something wrong? Help improve it.

Specs are for the stock bike as sold; check your own bike before you buy. This page covers the Ride1Up 500 Series commuter, sold from 2019 to 2023 in XR step-over and ST step-through frames. Some parts differ by frame or by motor (Bafang or Shengyi), so match yours before you order. The 500 Series is discontinued. Ride1Up sells most parts below from one model parts page and its rear wheel and motor page; both showed in stock with no prices, read Nov 9, 2026.

Electrical parts on this list must match this exact model, and they are fitted at the external plugs or by a pro. Never open the battery, controller, motor or display. For charging trouble, start with battery won't charge and e-bike battery care.
