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 HappyRun Tank G60. In summary, this is what cyclists think.
7 reasons to buy
- Testers relish the speeds they reach on the G60 and G60 Pro.
- Experts and owners compliment the “cool” design.
- The Tank G60 has a headlight, a rear light with brake function, turn signals, a horn, fenders, and folding pedals.
- The headlight has high and low beams, and a daytime running light feature.
- Testers praise the tidy cables.
- The suspension fork has adjustable compression and preload.
- Unlike some e-bikes, the G60’s motor cable is easily disconnected for removing the back wheel.
15 reasons not to buy
- Experts question the G60’s stated torque rating, as acceleration is so weak that mixing with traffic can be unsafe.
- Reviewers of the G60 highlight the poor-quality welds and, in one case, a misshapen frame. Owners call the build quality of HappyRun bikes “dangerous.”
- The Tank G60 can only be used on private land as the top speed exceeds e-bike regulations.
- The instructions lack vital details that could result in incorrect installation of the brake rotor and a consequent reduction in or total loss of braking ability.
- A tester receives a bike with parts that don't fit properly, preventing installation of the front axle.
- Testers and owners bemoan the G60's poor hill-climbing ability.
- At over 90lb, this bike is very heavy.
- Lagging pedal assist activation of one and a half (G60) or four (G60 Pro) crank rotations makes pulling away hard, especially uphill.
- The cheap suspension is noisy, bouncy, and too soft for bigger riders.
- HappyRun’s stated rider fit (5'3" to 6'5") is unrealistic. A 5’4” rider struggles to mount and dismount and a 6’ rider feels cramped.
- HappyRun provides inconsistent specs for this bike depending on where they’re published.
- A tester fails to reach the G60's listed top speed, reaching 25mph by pedaling and 29mph with the throttle.
- The large display is difficult to read in sunlight.
- The below-average 2A charger results in very long charging times.
- Owners complain of frustrating or non-existent customer support.
Bottom line
HappyRun’s Tank G60 is a full-suspension moped-style e-bike available with a 750W motor and 864Wh battery or a 1000W motor and 1,200Wh battery (G60 Pro). Testers praise the looks and speed. The G60 Pro has more torque but extremely lagging PAS activation. This bike has some good features and can cruise at high speeds. However, weak acceleration, poor hill-climbing, lagging assistance, underwhelming range, and substandard construction are beyond disappointing, even at this price. The Tank G60 might be a fun, short-range runabout on level, low-traffic roads, but there’s otherwise little to celebrate here.
