Ride1Up eBikes 2026: Company, 19 Models and Warranty

Ride1Up, read in full on November 2 and 3, 2026: every e-bike listing on its US store, its owner's manuals and help center, its warranty, return and shipping terms, the federal trademark and safety records and the state statutes.

Below: who stands behind the Ride1Up name, its 19 e-bike models side by side, how each one fares under your state's e-bike law, and seven bikes we sell beside them. The cover bike is Ride1Up's own photograph of its Vorsa in Glacier, placed in a studio we built.

Quick Answer — Ride1Up ebikes are sold by RIDE1UP, Inc., whose legal pages give a shop at 1851 San Diego Ave in San Diego, California, and whose help center says the bikes are designed there, manufactured in Asia and assembled near Shanghai. On November 3, 2026, ride1up.com listed 19 e-bike models from $795 to $2,395, eight of them with a version in stock.

Whichever current model you choose, its page prints 28 mph on pedal assist, and the motors run from 250 W to 750 W where a page names a figure. When all three federal safety registers were read in full on November 2, 2026, no CPSC recall, product safety warning or news release named Ride1Up or any of its models (the CPSC recall database).

At Ride1Up's own figures, its 250 W and 500 W models sit inside the e-bike definition in 41 of the 51 US jurisdictions and its 750 W models in 23 (our Ride1Up lineup dataset); where each model stands has the detail, state by state.

Shopping now? Seven bikes from our own shelf line up with the Portola 02, Vorsa and Revv1 on frame type and on the motor and speed figures their makers print, from $519 for a folder, and every e-bike we sell ships free within the contiguous United States (our shipping policy).

Who makes Ride1Up e-bikes, and where are they made?

RIDE1UP, Inc. sells the bikes, its legal pages put it in San Diego, California, and its help center says they are designed there, manufactured in Asia and assembled near Shanghai. Its terms of use are an "AGREEMENT BETWEEN USER AND RIDE1UP, INC." (Ride1Up's terms), and its privacy policy names "RIDE1UP, Inc. (dba 'RIDE 1UP')" (the privacy policy).

The company on its own pages

The same legal pages print a San Diego shop at 1851 San Diego Ave, Suite 140, San Diego, CA 92110. Ride1Up's contact page adds: "Our main product warehouse is located in Salt Lake City Utah. Most of our team including customer support are in San Diego, California" (Ride1Up's contact page).

Its phone line is 1-877-743-3187, which it writes as 1-877-RIDE1UP, open "9am - 4pm PT Monday - Friday" in the header of its pages (the contact page), and its help center says that "when you contact Ride1Up support, you will be working with US-based, trained ebike technicians" (Ride1Up's help center).

Who owns the Ride1Up name

Two federal trademark records carry the name RIDE1UP for electric bicycles, and both give September 19, 2018, as the date the mark was first used. The newer is an application filed July 28, 2026, by "Ride1Up, Inc." as a Delaware corporation at 1851 San Diego Ave, Suite 140, whose status reads "New application awaiting assignment to an examining attorney" (USPTO, serial 50018815).

The older is Registration No. 5,783,695, issued June 18, 2019, whose registrant is Kevin's Creations LLC, a California company in Davis. Since January 2, 2026, its status has read that the registration was canceled because the registrant "did not file an acceptable declaration under Section 8" (USPTO, serial 88122577). The register states both records and draws no line between them.

How Ride1Up describes itself

Ride1Up's about page gives its mission as "Get More People On E-Bikes" and says "We've been meeting milestones of our mission since 2018" (Ride1Up's about page). It names its founder, Kevin Dugger, as "a seasoned bike mechanic and builder" who saw that "any decent ebike seemed out of reach for most people – with most entry-level options starting at $2,000."

The same page frames its range around price and parts: "within each bikes' category, you will not find another ebike with better quality components for the price." Those are Ride1Up's words about its own bikes.

Where the bikes are made

Ride1Up's help center answers the question in one article: "Our bikes are designed at our corporate head quarters in San Diego, CA. We source components internationally and our bikes are manufactured in Asia, where 98% of bike components are manufactured" (Ride1Up's help center).

The same article continues: "Our main point of assembly and international Quality Control team are at factories near Shanghai. In our Prodigy model, the motor and electronics are made in Germany by Brose; and then shipped to Asia for final assembly into the bike."

Dealers, test rides and in-store purchases

You can buy a Ride1Up on ride1up.com, and its test-ride page, dated August 25, 2021, describes a map of "independent operators" in four kinds: shops and dealers ("Shops are independently owned and operated"), rental fleets, mechanics and owner ambassadors (Ride1Up's test-ride page). Of the mechanics it says "quality of service cannot be guaranteed", and ambassadors earn "8% commission when a test ride turns into a purchase."

For a bike bought in a store, Ride1Up's return policy for in-store purchases, posted April 19, 2022, gives 30 days "to the store" and "a six (6) month manufacturer's warranty from date of sale covering defects/parts (does not include labor)" (Ride1Up's in-store policy). If you buy in a shop, ask which terms apply to your receipt.

The safety record and the UL standards

When the U.S. Consumer Product Safety Commission's three registers were read in full on November 2, 2026, no recall, product safety warning or news release named Ride1Up or any of its 19 e-bike models. The recall database, the warnings list and the news releases were each read from start to finish (CPSC recalls; product safety warnings; news releases).

The UL certificates behind each model

Seven of the ten current Ride1Up listings match a model designation on a valid UL 2849 certificate in TÜV Rheinland's public database, read on November 3, 2026: the Portola 02, Vorsa, Roadster v3 and the Revv1 FS, HT, DRT and EVO.

The CPSC's 2022 letter to the micromobility industry names that standard, "ANSI/CAN/UL 2849 – Standard for Safety for Electrical Systems for eBikes", beside "ANSI/CAN/UL 2272 – Standard for Electrical Systems for Personal E-Mobility Devices" (CPSC letter, December 19, 2022).

The seven sit on five certificates, each a TÜV Rheinland "cTUVus Mark (CU-Certificate)", which its record says "shows that a product has been tested and certified by an independent accredited third party laboratory", with "repeat factory inspections to assure continued compliance" (the Vorsa's certificate, CU 72501077), and you can open each one from the table below.

On the pages you buy from, the Portola 02, Vorsa and Roadster v3 print "Certified to ANSI/CAN/UL 2849", and the four Revv1 pages print "TUV ANSI/CAN/UL 2849 & 2271 Compliant" (the Revv1 EVO page). The battery lines on six of them, all but the Revv1 EVO's, read "TUV Certified to UL 2271", and Ride1Up's Vorsa post says the pack is "Certified to UL2271 through TUV" (Ride1Up's Vorsa post).

The same database lists eight valid UL 2271 certificates held by Ride1Up for battery packs, issued from March 28, 2025, to September 1, 2026, each naming a pack such as "VK-48V15AH-13S3P" and not the bike it goes in (TÜV Rheinland's records for Ride1Up).

It also lists five certificates of conformity to FCC Part 15, Subpart B, dated May 22, 2025, a kind of record that "does not permit the use of a TÜV Rheinland test mark" (CU 50676887).

For any of the seven, match the designation above to the bike you order and keep the certificate number with your receipt. If you are weighing the Prodigy v2 ECO, TrailRush or CF Racer1, ask Ride1Up for the certificate number and the laboratory behind it, since a certificate from another laboratory, or one held in a supplier's name, would not show under Ride1Up's name here.

The Ride1Up ebike lineup: 19 models side by side

Ride1Up listed 19 e-bike models on November 3, 2026, in 20 listings (the TrailRush has a second, Black Friday listing), from the $795 Portola 02 Lite to the $2,395 Revv1 EVO. Eight models had at least one version in stock, and nine of the ten current listings had at least one version on sale against a higher regular price.

Each row below is the model's own product page, with its prices and stock read on November 3, 2026, and its figures on November 2. The same 20 listings are published as data with every source column: a CSV file and its JSON twin.

Battery watt-hours are Ride1Up's where a battery line prints them, and volts times amp-hours where the same line prints both. The Vorsa's 720 Wh comes from Ride1Up's April 1, 2025, post, which calls it "a 720Wh, 48V integrated battery" (Ride1Up's Vorsa post). Where the page and the manual print two loads, the table plans on the lower and prints both.

The Revv1 EVO's page heads its sizing table "FS" and the Revv1 HT's heads it "DRT"; the figures are as each page prints them (the Revv1 HT page). The nine older names are under older Ride1Up names.

Folding, city and utility bikes

If you want Ride1Up's folder, the Portola 02 is it, on 20 x 3 inch tires with a 750W AKM hub, hydraulic brakes and a "150lbs Rated Rack" on the full build. Its Lite build drops the fenders and rack, and you choose a 10 Ah or 15 Ah battery on either, which is why its price runs from $795 to $1,095.

If you carry your bike up stairs, the Roadster v3 is the light one at 40 lb, a 500W Mivice hub commuter in rigid, belt and suspension versions and three frames: Low-Step for riders from 5'2", Medium and Large (the Roadster v3 page). Its battery line prints 36V and 10Ah, 360Wh.

If you carry loads, the Vorsa is the utility bike, and you pick from three builds: the Standard on Schwalbe 27.5 x 2.6 inch tires rated for 440 lb, the Lite on 27.5 x 2.2 inch tires rated for 350 lb, and the FT on 4-inch Kenda fat tires, again 440 lb.

A 100 mm coil fork with a hydraulic lockout and a "Left-side thumb throttle" come on every build, and a "150lb rated" rack on the Standard and FT (the Vorsa page).

Mid-drive, road and moto-style bikes

The Prodigy v2 ECO and the TrailRush give you the Brose TF Sprinter at the cranks, which the Prodigy v2 ECO's page prints as "Brose TF Sprinter 250W (90Nm)". Neither page lists a throttle, so you pedal for every mile of assist. The CF Racer1 is a 28.6 lb carbon gravel bike with a 250W hub and a 225 lb load.

The Revv1 is the moto-style family: the EVO, the FS, the HT and the DRT, whose page lists a "Double-crown 150mm Front Fork". All four give you a 52V, 20Ah battery and a twist throttle, and on November 3 you could buy the EVO and DRT in one color each.

Which top speed to plan on

Plan on 28 mph for every current Ride1Up, and more on a Revv1 or Vorsa set to its Off-Road setting. Each current page prints 28 mph on pedal assist, and Ride1Up's class article says that on its Class 3 bikes "the throttle is limited to 20mph like a Class 2 bike" (Ride1Up's class article).

The same article says "Ride1Up currently ships three models as Class 2 bikes" and then lists four under "Class 2 Models": the Rift, Revv 1, Portola and Roadster v3. Both lines are Ride1Up's; if the class your bike arrives in matters to you, ask Ride1Up which one your model ships as.

The Revv1 and Vorsa add a third setting. Ride1Up's Vorsa page describes an "'Off-Road' mode which unlocks speeds of 28+ MPH for private road use only" (the Vorsa page), and the Revv1 EVO page says of its higher speeds: "This is more than 28 mph, but designed for private property and technically not legal to ride on public roads at these speeds" (the Revv1 EVO page).

Where the manual and the page disagree

On five current models, the owner's manual a product page links prints a figure that differs from the page, and on four of them the model's own manual does too. The fifth is the Revv1 EVO: if you open its page's manual link you get the 2023 Revv1 manual, while the EVO's own manual of October 2026 prints the page's 400 lb. The table below gives you both, with the figure you should plan on.

Ride1Up's manuals page lists an owner's manual for each of the 19 models, the Revv1 EVO's own among them, so you can open the one for the exact model you buy (Ride1Up's manuals page). Where your own bike's two figures differ, write to Ride1Up before you load it up to either one.

Older Ride1Up names

Nine older names are still listed on ride1up.com, all out of stock on November 3. The store titles four of them "(Discontinued)", the Rift, LMT'D, Core-5 and 500 Series, and the help center lists the 700 Series, Cafe Cruiser, LMT'D V2, Turris and the first Prodigy as discontinued too; the store's Prodigy XC listing links that Prodigy's manual.

All nine but the Prodigy XC are 750 W bikes with a thumb throttle, and the help center keeps their manuals, with error-code articles for several of them, along with the Portola's and the Roadster v2's (Ride1Up's manuals page).

Ride1Up or Aventon?

Ride1Up's current bikes top out at $2,395 against Aventon's $5,999, and Aventon's warranty runs two years to Ride1Up's one. Our Aventon profile read Aventon's US store on October 3, 2026: 16 models in 21 frame options, 12 in stock from $1,199 to $5,999, with a two-year limited warranty.

Ride1Up's current lineup runs from $795 to $2,395 with a one-year warranty, and its pages print 28 mph on every current model. The federal recall register lists a January 2024 Aventon recall of one of its folding bikes, remedied by a software update, and no recall names Ride1Up.

Ride1Up or Lectric?

Both sell a folder from under $1,000; Lectric's warranty passes to a later owner and Ride1Up's does not. Our Lectric profile read Lectric's US store on October 4, 2026: six models in 12 trims from $799 to $1,999, each shipped set as a Class 2, with a one-year warranty that passes to a later owner.

Ride1Up's warranty covers "the original and first owner of the bike (warranty is not transferable)" (Ride1Up's warranty page). The federal recall register lists a September 2023 Lectric recall of brake calipers on a model Lectric no longer lists, and no recall names Ride1Up.

Revv1 FS, HT or DRT?

The FS page lists a double-crown 120 mm fork and a rear air shock (the Revv1 FS page), and the DRT page a double-crown 150 mm fork and "Custom Mold Innova Off-Road Tires" (the Revv1 DRT page). The HT page lists the DRT's 150 mm fork and a 76 mm rear shock under a sizing table headed "DRT", so ask Ride1Up which frame that listing ships.

On November 3, the DRT had its Toy Soldier color in stock at $2,095, and the FS and HT were out of stock.

All three pages print the same 52V, 20Ah battery and 350 lb load, and none prints the motor's wattage. Where each Ride1Up stands reads them at both of the figures Ride1Up's posts give.

The seven bikes we sell beside them

We do not sell Ride1Up. Beside three of its model families, the Portola 02, the Vorsa in its three builds and the Revv1, we sell a bike of the same kind, seven in all from five makers, each on a motor rating and a top speed at or under the Ride1Up's own.

Find the Ride1Up you were weighing in the left column and compare it with the bike beside it; how we matched each bike gives the rule, and each one ships free within the contiguous United States.

Beside the Portola 02, for the smallest outlay: Samebike CY20 Pro

The Ride1Up models without a card

No card stands beside the Roadster v3, the Prodigy v2 ECO, the TrailRush or the CF Racer1. If you came for one of those, our commuter guide sets out the commuter bikes we stock, and our folding guide the folding ones.

Why buy one of these from us

Every card above ships free within the contiguous United States, and email to support@redtailebikes.com typically gets an answer within one business day (our contact page). We dispatch within 1–3 business days of confirming your order, and most e-bikes reach your door within 5–10 business days after dispatch (our shipping policy).

If your bike arrives damaged, note it on the carrier's paperwork and send us photos within 48 hours of delivery; we file the freight claim for you, as our terms of service set out. A defect is covered by the maker's warranty, and we coordinate the repair or replacement remotely (our refund policy).

Our change-of-mind window is shorter than Ride1Up's: we take back an unopened bike in its factory-sealed packaging within 72 hours of delivery, less a 15% restocking fee and the return shipping (our refund policy). Check your height against each maker's rider range first, since only an unopened bike can come back for a change of mind. Checkout takes Shop Pay, Apple Pay and Google Pay as well as the major cards.

How we matched each bike

A card stands beside a Ride1Up model when it is the same kind of bike, a folder beside the folder and a fat-tire bike beside the Vorsa FT, and the motor rating and top speed its maker prints are at or under the figures on the Ride1Up's page: 750 W and 28 mph beside the Portola 02, Vorsa and Revv1 EVO.

Samebike prints the CY20 Pro's motor as "500W" with an 800W peak; the match rests on the first. Each card's maker page was read for its specifications that day, the color on each button was in stock at the maker's store and ours on November 3, 2026, and each price equaled the maker's own that day except the CY20 Pro's.

Samebike's page lists it at $599, with a code, BF80, for "UP TO $80 OFF" from November 1 to 30, and the $519 you pay here is that $599 less $80.

Speed, class and the law: where each Ride1Up stands

At the speeds and motors Ride1Up's own pages print, its 250 W and 500 W models sit inside the e-bike definition in 41 of the 51 US jurisdictions, and its 750 W models in 23. Alaska and Kentucky write no e-bike definition at all, so no Ride1Up sits inside one there.

The three classes, in the federal text

The Bureau of Land Management's rule sets out the same three classes most state codes use (43 CFR 8340.0-5(j)). Class 1 is a motor that "provides assistance only when the rider is pedaling" and stops at 20 mph.

Class 2 is a motor that "may be used exclusively to propel the bicycle", also to 20 mph, and Class 3 returns to pedal-only help that "ceases to provide assistance when the bicycle reaches the speed of 28 miles per hour" (the same section). Ride1Up's class article says it "makes bikes that fall into Class 2 or 3" (Ride1Up's class article).

Where each Ride1Up stands

So you can find your own state, we ran each model through every jurisdiction's definition in our state-by-state law pages at the 28 mph its page prints, with the throttle at the 20 mph Ride1Up's class article sets, and at the motor figure its page names. The Revv1 FS, HT and DRT, whose pages print no wattage, are read at both figures Ride1Up's posts give.

The nine older names screen the way their motors place them: the Prodigy XC with the 250 W bikes and the other eight with the 750 W bikes (our Ride1Up lineup dataset lists the places for each).

Three limbs decide the counts. A speed above 20 mph sits outside the definition where the code stops there, Massachusetts among them, which writes no Class 3. New Jersey's 2025 act defines a "Low-speed electric bicycle" around a motor that "provides assistance only when the rider is pedaling" (P.L.2025, c.285), so a Ride1Up with a throttle sits outside it there.

The third limb is the motor. Nineteen states write their 750-watt cap as "less than" 750 watts, or "fewer than" in Texas and West Virginia, and a 750 W motor is not less than 750 watts, which is why the 750 W Ride1Ups sit outside 18 more jurisdictions than the 250 W and 500 W ones do.

Nebraska's Class III definition writes two limbs, a motor "Not exceeding seven hundred fifty watts of power" and one "That produces no more than one brake horsepower" (Neb. Rev. Stat. § 60-614.04), and one brake horsepower is about 746 watts. The screen counts Nebraska inside on its watts limb; on the horsepower limb alone, a 750 W Ride1Up would sit inside 22.

Settings, the Off-Road mode and what the law leaves open

Ride1Up sells several models with settings the rider can change. Ride1Up's class article lists the Roadster v3 among the models it ships as Class 2 and says they "can be switched to Class 3 for those who wish to do so" (Ride1Up's class article), and the Revv1 and Vorsa add the Off-Road setting described in which top speed to plan on.

Those are Ride1Up's labels. Whether a setting the rider can switch on is the bike's top speed for the law is a question the statutes do not settle in plain words. California's definition, for one, excludes a bike "intended by the manufacturer to be modifiable to attain a speed greater than 20 miles per hour on motor power alone or to attain more than 750 watts of power" (Cal. Veh. Code § 312.5).

Read one way, the law looks at the speed a bike is delivered at; read the other, at the top speed its maker allows you to select. We plan every figure here on the higher of the two, the reading that keeps you safest. If a lower setting matters to you, get Ride1Up's answer in writing on the setting your bike ships in.

California, now and from January 1, 2027

California's Senate Bill 1167, which takes effect on January 1, 2027, rewrites § 312.5 to say that "A vehicle capable of attaining a speed greater than 20 miles per hour on motor power alone" is not an electric bicycle, and neither is one "intended by the manufacturer to be modifiable" to "Attain a speed greater than 20 miles per hour on motor power alone" (SB 1167, chaptered text).

The bill says such vehicles "shall not be advertised, sold, offered for sale, or labeled as electric bicycles." How it applies to a setting like the Off-Road mode is a question for California's courts and agencies, and if you ride in California, our California law page follows it.

What is at stake

A bike that falls outside a state's e-bike definition is governed by whichever vehicle class that state's code puts it in, with that class's penalties. In New Jersey, the act requires "The valid driver's license, the insurance identification card, and the registration certificate" when riding "a motorized bicycle or low-speed electric bicycle with motor engaged on the highways of this State", with "a fine not exceeding $50" (P.L.2025, c.285).

Riding in New Jersey? Our New Jersey law page sets out the registration steps. On land the Bureau of Land Management manages, breaking the off-road vehicle rules can bring "a fine of not more than $1,000 or imprisonment for not longer than 12 months, or both" (43 CFR 8340.0-7); our public-land law page sets out where e-bikes may go.

From December 1, 2026, North Carolina's S.L. 2026-46 brings in the three classes, and from that day each current Ride1Up at 750 W or less sits outside one fewer jurisdiction: 7 for the 250 W and 500 W models and 25 for the 750 W ones, while the Revv1 FS, HT and DRT, read at 1000 W, stay outside 47. Our North Carolina law page has the dates.

Age and the young rider

Ride1Up's own rule is 18: every owner's manual we read says "YOU MUST BE EIGHTEEN (18) YEARS OR OLDER TO RIDE THIS E-BIKE", the CF Racer1's with "EBIKE", and its warranty covers a rider and purchaser "18 years of age or over". States set their own minimum ages, where they set one, and for a younger rider the final call is the parent's.

What Ride1Up says about age

The warranty's conditions include that the "Rider and purchaser is 18 years of age or over and possesses the legal capacity and authority to purchase and ride an eBike" (Ride1Up's warranty page). The Vorsa's owner's manual prints the 18-and-over line on its second page (the Vorsa manual).

What the law sets

California puts its line at 16 for a Class 3: "A person under 16 years of age shall not operate a class 3 electric bicycle" (Cal. Veh. Code § 21213). New Jersey sets its floor at 15: no one "under 15 years of age shall be permitted to operate" a low-speed electric bicycle there (P.L.2025, c.285).

Ages differ from state to state, and a few states set none; our state law pages list each one. If you are buying for a teenager, our kids and teens guide sets out the smaller bikes we sell.

Ride1Up's warranty, returns and shipping, clause by clause

One year of warranty against manufacturing defects for the first owner, Ride1Up's return window of 30 days with the odometer under 20 miles and the shipping back paid by you, and free shipping to the contiguous 48 states. Each clause below comes from Ride1Up's own pages, read November 2, 2026, quoted where its wording decides the answer.

The warranty

"Ride1Up grants a 1-year guarantee for manufacturing defects only", for "the original retail purchaser", and the warranty is "not transferable" (Ride1Up's warranty page). It holds only "If the bike was purchased directly from Ride1Up.com or one of our authorized retailers" and "applies only to customers purchasing and operating in the contiguous United States."

Within 30 days, "Ride1Up will cover labor and parts within the 30-day period after purchase, if communicated prior to the work being done"; after that, "Ride1Up will ship replacement parts within the year at no charge. The owner will be responsible for labor." Your claim needs "video and photographic submissions", and Ride1Up asks you to "allow 1-3 weeks for shipping replacement components, if the component is in stock."

Two conditions deserve a careful read before you buy. The bike must be "ridden only on paved roads and trails", and wear items, brake pads, chains, tires and bearings among them, are excluded (the warranty page). The Revv1 has its own warranty page with the same one-year terms (the Revv1 warranty page).

You can buy an extension: Ride1Up's help center says two years cost "~17% of the bike's cost" and three years "~29%", bought "within 30 days of your bike's delivery" (Ride1Up's extended warranty article).

Returns and cancellations

Ride1Up's return policy gives 30 days on its electric bikes "with certain model exclusions", a full refund when the bike comes back "in the condition it was delivered to you", and "Buyer is responsible for the cost of return shipping" (Ride1Up's return policy). The odometer "must read less than twenty (20) miles", and the bike must be free of "dirt, wear and tear".

If you use Ride1Up's prepaid label, "$250-$350 (varies by model and shipping cost) will be deducted from the final refund amount" (the return policy). The Revv1 is excluded: Ride1Up takes back only an "unopened and unused" Revv1 reported within 14 days, "subject to a $350 restocking fee per bike."

Canceling costs too. Before shipping, a cancellation carries "a 3% payment processing charge", and once the warehouse has the order, "a $250 fee per bike ($350 for Revv1)" (the return policy). The same page says "All sales are final on Portola and Prodigy v2 Clearance Sale", so ask whether a sale price you see falls under it.

Shipping and delivery

"Shipping within the Contiguous United States is FREE for orders over $100, with exclusions," and bikes travel by FedEx, UPS, Pilot or LTL freight with "Signature Required" (Ride1Up's shipping page). An in-stock bike ships "within 1 business day", and transit runs "from 1-6 days", or 5 to 10 business days by freight.

Shipping to Hawaii and Alaska "starts at $650 per ebike with the Portola 02 and Portola 02 Lite currently the only models available" (the shipping page). Ride1Up does not ship bikes to P.O. boxes or overseas military addresses.

A damaged arrival must be reported "by phone or e-mail within 3 working days from the date of delivery", and "any damage caused by shipping is not covered by any warranty" (Ride1Up's warranty page), so open the box the day it comes.

Financing

Ride1Up's checkout offers Affirm, at "Rates from 0–36% APR", with a promotion of "0% APR for 3 Months" for "qualified riders" on "select models" (Ride1Up's financing page). Its help center lists terms of 6, 12 and 36 months (Ride1Up's financing article).

Owning one: battery, charging, water and error codes

Ride1Up's help center says plainly: "Ride1Up ebikes are not waterproof", though "most models have an IP-65 rating, meaning they can handle light rain and splashes" (Ride1Up's water article). Its battery lines print IPX6 on the Portola 02 and Vorsa, and the Portola 02's display manual prints IPX5.

The International Electrotechnical Commission, which writes the IP code, scores its second numeral for liquids (IEC on IP ratings). Ride1Up's own advice covers your ports: before you ride in damp conditions, "make sure that the charge and USB ports ... are completely sealed", and take the battery off before you carry the bike on a car rack in rain.

When you charge, Ride1Up says "Only use the provided Ride1Up brand charger for your specific model", wait "30-60 minutes after riding to charge", and "unplug the battery within an hour after the charger turns green" (Ride1Up's battery article). It notes that "All our 48v bikes use a 54v charger, and our 36v bikes use a 42v charger."

When a display shows a code, Ride1Up's help center has error-code articles for the displays on most of its models, the Portola 02, Vorsa, Roadster v3, CF Racer1 and Revv1 among them (Ride1Up's help center). Accessories and parts can go back within 14 days of delivery, unused and with Ride1Up's approval, less "A 25% restocking fee", and "Returns are not available on batteries" (the return policy).

Before you buy a Ride1Up: the checklist

Run these eight checks against Ride1Up's own figures before you pay.

1. The speed. Plan on 28 mph for any current model, and on the Off-Road figure for a Revv1 or Vorsa, and read it against your state's e-bike law.
2. The setting. Ask Ride1Up in writing which class your bike ships in and which settings its display can change.
3. The motor. For a Revv1 FS, HT or DRT, ask which motor rating your bike carries, since Ride1Up's posts give 1000W and 750W.
4. The load. Where the page and the manual print two loads, plan on the lower: 275 lb on the TrailRush, 300 lb on the Portola 02 and the Roadster v3, and 350 lb on the Vorsa Lite.
5. The certificate. Find your model's TÜV Rheinland certificate number in the UL table and keep it with your receipt; for the Prodigy v2 ECO, TrailRush or CF Racer1, ask Ride1Up which laboratory certified it.
6. The return window. Ride1Up's return window is 30 days with under 20 miles, and the Revv1's 14 days unopened, so settle the size against the rider range first.
7. The delivery. Open the box the day it arrives, report damage within three working days, and keep the packaging until the bike suits you.
8. The receipt. If you buy in a shop, ask whether Ride1Up's online terms or its six-month in-store terms apply.

The honest ledger

Each row pairs what a Ride1Up does well with the rider who should read another option first. If a right-hand cell describes you, it names a bike of ours worth comparing.

Frequently asked questions

Is Ride1Up a good ebike brand?

Ride1Up lists 19 e-bike models from $795 to $2,395 with a one-year warranty against manufacturing defects, Ride1Up's return window of 30 days for a bike ridden under 20 miles, and no CPSC recall, warning or news release naming it. Its help center says "Our Ride1Up team is 100% domestic". Whether one suits you turns on the speed you will ride and your state's rules (where each model stands).

Is Ride1Up legit?

Ride1Up is the trading name of RIDE1UP, Inc., named on its terms and privacy policy, with a shop at 1851 San Diego Ave in San Diego and a warehouse in Salt Lake City. The U.S. Patent and Trademark Office holds a 2026 application for the RIDE1UP mark by Ride1Up, Inc. (who owns the name).

Who owns Ride1Up?

Ride1Up's legal pages name RIDE1UP, Inc., and its 2026 trademark application names Ride1Up, Inc. as a Delaware corporation in San Diego (USPTO, serial 50018815). Its about page names Kevin Dugger as its founder. An earlier RIDE1UP registration, held by Kevin's Creations LLC, was canceled on January 2, 2026.

Where are Ride1Up bikes made?

Ride1Up's help center says its bikes "are designed at our corporate head quarters in San Diego, CA" and "manufactured in Asia", with assembly and quality control "at factories near Shanghai" (Ride1Up's help center). On the Prodigy, "the motor and electronics are made in Germany by Brose."

Where is Ride1Up based?

San Diego, California. Its legal pages give a shop at 1851 San Diego Ave, Suite 140, and its contact page says "Most of our team including customer support are in San Diego, California", with the main warehouse in Salt Lake City, Utah (Ride1Up's contact page).

Is Ride1Up a stable company?

On November 3, 2026, Ride1Up listed 19 models with eight in stock, its trademark application was filed that July, and no federal safety record named it (the lineup). Its about page dates its work to 2018.

Are Ride1Up bikes UL certified?

Seven of its ten current listings match a model designation on a valid UL 2849 certificate in TÜV Rheinland's public database, read November 3, 2026: the Portola 02, Vorsa, Roadster v3 and the Revv1 FS, HT, DRT and EVO (the UL table). The database also lists eight UL 2271 certificates for Ride1Up battery packs. No record under Ride1Up's name covers the Prodigy v2 ECO, TrailRush or CF Racer1, so ask Ride1Up about those three before you buy.

What class are Ride1Up e-bikes?

Ride1Up's class article says it "makes bikes that fall into Class 2 or 3", with the throttle held to 20 mph on its Class 3 bikes (Ride1Up's class article). Every current page prints 28 mph on pedal assist, and the Roadster v3 ships set as a Class 2.

Which Ride1Up e-bikes have off-road mode?

The Revv1 and the Vorsa. Ride1Up's Vorsa page describes an "'Off-Road' mode which unlocks speeds of 28+ MPH for private road use only" (the Vorsa page), and the Revv1 EVO page calls those speeds "technically not legal to ride on public roads" (the Revv1 EVO page).

Does the Ride1Up Roadster v3 have a throttle?

Yes. Ride1Up's Roadster v3 page lists a "VeloFox tempered glass OLED display with integrated throttle", and its class article lists the Roadster v3 among the models shipped as Class 2, where the throttle assists to 20 mph (Ride1Up's class article).

How much does the Ride1Up Vorsa weigh?

Ride1Up's Vorsa page prints 65 lb for the Standard and 72 lb for the FT without add-ons, 70 lb and 77 lb with them, and 61 lb for the Lite, in both frames (the Vorsa page). The Standard and FT are rated for 440 lb and the Lite for 350 lb.

Can you return a Ride1Up?

Yes. Ride1Up's return policy gives 30 days, if the odometer reads under 20 miles and the bike comes back clean and complete; you pay the shipping, or $250 to $350 comes off the refund for Ride1Up's label (Ride1Up's return policy). A Revv1 goes back only unopened within 14 days, less $350.

Does Ride1Up ship to Hawaii?

Ride1Up's shipping page says shipping to Hawaii and Alaska "starts at $650 per ebike", with the Portola 02 and Portola 02 Lite the only models it ships there directly (Ride1Up's shipping page).

Does Ride1Up have dealers?

Ride1Up sells online and through a map of independent test-ride locations: shops and dealers, rental fleets, mechanics and owner ambassadors, each "independent operators" in its words (Ride1Up's test-ride page). A bike bought in a store carries six months of parts warranty under Ride1Up's in-store policy.

What warranty does Ride1Up give?

One year against manufacturing defects, for the original retail purchaser, not transferable, in the contiguous United States (Ride1Up's warranty page). Labor is covered within 30 days of purchase; after that Ride1Up ships replacement parts within the year and you pay for the labor.

The bottom line

Ride1Up lists 19 e-bike models from $795 to $2,395 under RIDE1UP, Inc. of San Diego, with one year of warranty for the first owner and Ride1Up's return window of 30 days for a bike ridden under 20 miles.

Before you buy, settle the speed you will ride at, because every current model assists to 28 mph and the 750 W ones also sit outside the 19 states whose codes cap the motor at "less than" or "fewer than" 750 watts. Ask Ride1Up which class your bike ships in.

If you want a Ride1Up, the Portola 02 gives you a 750 W folder from $795, and the Vorsa a utility bike rated for 440 lb, from $1,445 in its Standard build.

If you would rather buy from us, the VTUVIA SX20 Antelope is the bike to set beside the Portola 02, and the seven bikes above each stand beside a Ride1Up of the same kind, on a motor rating and top speed at or under its own; each ships free within the contiguous United States with the warranty claim handled by us.

Image credit: each of the seven card photographs is its maker's own (Samebike, VTUVIA, Addmotor, Himiway and Eunorau), from its store and of the color that card's button buys, scaled as one piece and never redrawn or retouched.

Cover: Ride1Up's own photograph of the Vorsa in Glacier, taken off its white backdrop and scaled as one piece, so every pixel of the bike is Ride1Up's. Behind it is our house studio, rendered with Nano Banana Pro on Playcut for an earlier cover and reused here; the type was set over it last.

Limitations

Read these before you rely on a figure here for a purchase or a ride. They name what this page could not settle and the sources its figures rest on.

1. Every Ride1Up figure on this page is Ride1Up's own, or computed from it (battery watt-hours where a battery line prints volts and amp-hours), read on its US store, in its help center and in its owner's manuals on November 2, 2026, three of the manuals on November 3; prices and stock were read again on November 3. Where Ride1Up's own texts disagree, both are printed and the safer figure is planned on: the load on four models, the water rating on the Portola 02, and the count of models shipped as Class 2.
2. The Portola 02's battery line, store record and manual print its amp-hours, 10 Ah or 15 Ah, and no voltage, and none of the 233 Ride1Up posts read gives one, so no watt-hour figure is computed for it. The Vorsa's 720 Wh is from a Ride1Up post of April 1, 2025, since its page prints 15 Ah only.
3. The Revv1 FS, HT and DRT pages print no motor wattage, and Ride1Up's posts give 1000W (June 13 and October 17, 2024) and 750W (August 20, 2024); the law table reads them at both. The Revv1 EVO's sizing table is headed "FS" and the Revv1 HT's "DRT", and the figures are printed as each page gives them.
4. The 250 W rating for the TrailRush rests on the Prodigy v2 ECO page's "Brose TF Sprinter 250W (90Nm)", since the TrailRush page names the same Brose motor without a figure. The CF Racer1's page names no throttle; the law table screens it as if it had one, the safer reading, and its counts do not change.
5. TÜV Rheinland's database was searched under Ride1Up's name on November 3, 2026, and all 18 records it returned were read, every page of each. A certificate from another laboratory, or one held in a supplier's name, would not appear in that search, and UL Solutions' directory, which needs an account, was not searched. The UL table matches a certificate to a listing by the model designation it prints.
6. California's § 312.5, New Jersey's act, North Carolina's session law and IEC's IP-ratings page were read on October 30, 2026, through the Internet Archive's captures of the official pages, made October 4, August 22, September 22 and August 14, 2026; § 21213 through its capture of September 28, 2026, saved October 27, 2026, and SB 1167 from the enrolled text saved October 1, 2026. On November 3, 2026, the official hosts refused automated reads or did not answer.
7. The law counts apply each statute's own words to the speeds and motors Ride1Up prints, at 28 mph on pedal assist and with the throttle at 20 mph as Ride1Up's class article states. They are not legal advice, and a court or agency may read a speed setting differently (what the law leaves open).
8. Prices, stock and promotions change. Ride1Up's prices are its sale prices of November 3, 2026, during a sale its pages call Black Friday; the seven cards' prices and stock were read against their makers' own the same day, and every card price equaled its maker's except the Samebike CY20 Pro's, $519 here against Samebike's $599, which its page sells with a code, BF80, for "UP TO $80 OFF" from November 1 to 30.
9. The specifications on the seven cards are each maker's own, and the prices are ours. Addmotor prints the Foldtan M-160's load twice, "Payload Capacity 300 LBS" and "Max load capacity is 280 lbs", and its card prints both; Addmotor offers the Graoopro's battery as "Single and Dual", and its card prints that line as written.
10. The comparisons with Aventon and Lectric rest on our own profiles of those brands, which read Aventon's US store on October 3, 2026, and Lectric's on October 4, 2026. The four end prices and the two warranty terms those comparisons print were read again on Aventon's and Lectric's own pages on November 3, 2026, and had not changed.
11. The Revv1 EVO's page links the 2023 Revv1 manual, which prints 350 lb; the EVO's own manual, on Ride1Up's manuals page, prints the page's 400 lb, so you can plan on 400 lb.

Expiry conditions

This page should be re-read and re-dated when anything about Ride1Up changes: its lineup, prices, specifications, shipping, return, warranty or financing terms; the sale its pages call Black Friday; any CPSC record naming it; TÜV Rheinland's records for it; or the status of USPTO serial 50018815.

It should be re-read, too, when any state's e-bike definition changes, North Carolina's on December 1, 2026, and California's on January 1, 2027, among them; when Samebike's BF80 code ends on November 30, 2026; or when the price, stock or specification of the seven bikes we sell changes.

Source register

Each source behind this page, its tier, what it supports and when it was read. T1 is a government's own record: the federal safety registers and letter, the regulations, the trademark office and the state statutes and bills.

T2 is a company's or a standards body's own pages and records: Ride1Up's store, help center, manuals, posts and policies, the International Electrotechnical Commission's page, TÜV Rheinland's certificate records, the makers of the seven alternatives, and our own policies, profiles and dataset. Nothing on this page rests on a T3, T4 or T5 source.

Primary sources

Every document the page cites is listed here with its publisher, the part relied on and the day it was read. A deposit copy of each is kept in our research record, and an Internet Archive capture is named where the read went through one.
