14 reasons not to buy
- A reviewer said Filel disc brakes were “squishy" and didn’t respond swiftly.
- The suspension fork twisted under hard braking. It snapped for one owner.
- Chargers quickly failed for a number of buyers.
- Battery life depleted after a few months to one year’s use.
- Riders found the e-Bike heavy, especially when pedaling unpowered.
- A few buyers received a front axle that was too narrow to complete assembly.
- Water pooled under the battery casing.
- The motor was noisy when straining.
- The 14-28 tooth cassette felt undergeared and left riders spinning.
- Buyers reported instructions with unclear images and rough English.
- The rear derailleur was bent on arrival, for some buyers.

Bottom line
To say the least, the Ancheer Electric Mountain Bike received mixed reviews. Those that received a functioning bike were pleased with a budget ride that usually did the job. The 10-40mi range (depending on the assist mode used), covered needs for commuting, shopping trips and errands. Riders often sought more ‘resistance’ from the drivetrain, which seemed somewhat undergeared. Some folk were very pleased with customer service and their response to replacing faulty parts, while others were bitterly disappointed. Reports on durability varied but when it worked, it worked.
