BikeRide finds and shows you the best prices of the bikes you want to buy. Prices constantly change and it’s impossible to compare them all yourself.

We search for prices on over 120 bike retailers to guarantee that we find the lowest prices – to save you time and money.

It’s a promise we stand behind: If you find a lower price on a bike elsewhere, we will sell it to you for 10% less. For example, if you find a bike for $480 that we have listed at $500, we will offer you to buy it for $432 through BikeRide. The bike must be the same color and size, sold in the US and not include the use of a coupon.

If you find a lower price, email us at [email protected] with documentation of the price. We’re committed to making sure that the cost of a bike does not keep you from cycling!

Summary of Reviews

We have read all expert and user reviews on the Freesky Swift Horse Pro X-6E. In summary, this is what cyclists think.

6 reasons to buy

  • A tester relishes the Swift Horse Pro’s “punchy” throttle acceleration.
  • The four-piston hydraulic disc brakes provide excellent stopping power in testing.
  • A reviewer praises the stable handling.
  • This bike comes with fenders, a rear rack, and a headlight.
  • An expert commends the Swift Horse Pro’s hill-climbing power.
  • The color display has a USB-C port to charge devices on the go.

9 reasons not to buy

  • The bike reaches 35mph using pedal assist, exceeding the legal speed limit for e-bikes.
  • A reviewer finds the rear shock too stiff.
  • At 89lb, the Swift Horse Pro is very heavy.
  • Pedal assist takes a full revolution to kick in.
  • The Swift Horse Pro doesn't have a taillight.
  • The Swift Horse Pro’s limited gearing range (48t chainring, 14t smallest cog) prevents pedaling at high speeds.
  • Freesky states a height range of 5’3” to 6’5”, but a 5’4” rider finds the 33.9” minimum seat heat too high.
  • A reviewer says the rear fender and derailleur rattle when riding off-road.
  • The controller overheats from a reviewer riding the bike at full speed for 10 miles. This cuts the power output by half.

Bottom line

Freesky’s Swift Horse Pro is a fat-tire e-bike with full suspension, a 1,000W motor, and a 1,440Wh battery. The sole tester praises the throttle acceleration, climbing performance, and stopping power. Stable handling and ride comfort also impress, but the stiff rear shock makes for an uncomfortable ride off-road. The top speed and motor power mean this bike exceeds e-bike laws. One tester finds the controller overheats quickly, resulting in reduced power output. Other drawbacks include the high weight, laggy pedal assist, and low gearing. Overall, the Swift Horse Pro fails to stand out in the fat-tire e-bike market.
