11 Reasons to Buy a BESV CF1 eBike

  • The BESV CF1 eBike is designed with the savvy urban explorer in mind - it's streamlined, lightweight, and easy to ride. And it doesn't stop there: the BESV CF1 eBike has an integrated bell that lets everyone know where you are.
  • The angled fork allows you to ride without hitting your feet on the front fender.
  • The saddle comes with a built-in handle for easily positioning the bike.
  • The premium quality tires have puncture protection and reflective tapes for better visibility.
  • The bike comes with no suspension, ensuring you an extremely comfortable ride.
  • The bike is available in two sizes with different wheel diameters to ensure comfort.
  • It has a unique, easy-to-mount frame with minimal wires.
  • There are three color choices for the frame - gray, gloss white, and gloss black.
  • The bike has an auto-power-off feature in cases where you forget to turn the bike off.
  • A cadence-sensing pedal ensures you only have to provide minimal effort to keep the bike moving.
  • The BESV CF1 eBike has four assist levels, so you can choose how much assistance you want to get from the motor.

3 Reasons Not to Get a BESV CF1 eBike

  • The LED panel could've been better. It does not display essentials like battery level, speed, etc.
  • The charging plug is not magnetic and can possibly bend since it's near the left crank arm.
  • The headlights do not point the right way. The direction is a bit off, but the built-in design keeps you protected as it glows from the side. It isn't the most reliable headlight for a late-night ride.

Bottom Line

The BESV CF1 is a solid eBike with a great price-performance ratio. It's fun to ride, fast, and efficient. It gets plenty of power from the 250-watt motor, but remains relatively light with an aluminum frame. It's excellent for daytime commuters who want extra help on the way to work.

Electric Bike Review

"If you’re riding in the neighborhood or commuting through the city, the CF1 offers a lot of value and style for the price. It comes with all of the accessories you need for safety, hauling, and staying clean and they look great. It’s quiet, adjustable to fit, and comes in those two sizes."

"It doesn't come with the fancy display panel. (It) comes with different levels of riding: I really like the big tires. Overall, a smooth riding bike."
