8 reasons not to buy
- The 3-speed drivetrain doesn’t offer a wide gear range in mountainous locales.
- At 63lb, owners found the Roamer heavy, especially when lifting it onto a car carrier.
- Rambo’s Roamer is not a low-priced option.
- One owner’s Roamer only had one screw in the rear disc rotor, which fell off.
- A buyer received their bike without a charging unit and an essential screw.

- The Roamer is only available in a large-ish 19" frame size.
- One owner could not shift gears on their new Roamer.
Bottom line
Rambo’s Roamer is a fat-tire backwoods bike that employs a 750W Bafang mid-drive motor for powerful and direct pedal input. This motor provides a peak output of 1000 watts and 120Nm of torque, making it a capable climber. An internal 3-speed hub protects gearing from vegetation and damage but is limiting in steep terrain. The bike is enjoyed by hunters. However, being a hardtail, the Roamer also serves as a great commuting option for riders who have some dirt or gravel on their way to work. The Roamer is not a frugal option, but it is capable.Expert Reviews
