Ride1Up's TrailRush is a $2,095 Class III hardtail e-mountain bike that prioritizes value and established components. The aluminum frame, Shimano Deore 10-speed drivetrain, 120-mm RockShox Judy Silver TK Air Fork, and Tektro Orion Quad Piston brakes provide reliable off-road capability. The bike includes a 150-mm Exaform dropper post and 29-inch Maxxis Minion tubeless-ready tires with Schrader valves. It lacks UL certification, has a tiny display, no companion app in the U.S., and lower torque than some competitors. The company emphasizes quality-to-price ratio, but buyers should research direct-to-consumer purchases to avoid safety and reliability risks.
Buying a direct-to-consumer bike can be almost as big a gamble as investing in cryptocurrency. While a customer is not likely to lose their shirt investing in a new electric bike, buying a poorly made one may result in a serious crash or catch the garage on fire. For these reasons and more, it's wise to do some research before clicking on the Add to Cart button.
It also comes with nice extras, like a 150-mm Exaform dropper seat post and chunky Maxxis Minion tubeless-ready tires that are 29 inches in the front and back-a reasonably priced, high-performance set of tires often preferred by enduro or downhill riders. Interestingly, instead of Presta valves, the tires come with Schrader valves, which is a nice feature if you plan
