Don’t waste your $$$ – Contrary to saying they will respond to emails they Don’t! No possibility of contacting. No parts replacement. Why still allowed to trade in Australia?
Crap Service and backup – gave up trying to get help , no response , had to try and soucse my own parts and battery
battery replacement – So I have had my Aseako alto electric bike for about 2 years now....Now the problem starts with the battery being sick!!There is no service backup for this bike..One email contact for problems within the sydney area...Where do i go from here..i think parts maybe scarce when the time comes..come on Aseako lift your game with after sales service..

have received a reply from Brett from Aseako and has explained certain things to me regarding my issues. I apologize for being to hasty and ill informed on my product review on my Aseako electric bike. I was wrong and i have egg on my face. Once again apologizes to Brett from Aseako..
No customer service NO Parts! – Have emailed three times no reply and gave them longer than 48 hour response time! No spare parts listed. No service people either. Don’t waste money buy from place walk into if have problems
Does what its designed to do – Received my bike on Tuesday and did a 60km round trip to work the very next day. If you're used to travel on a road or racing bike as I am you'll be dissapointed with the speed. Unfortunately there no one to blame for this as the bike does exactly what is advertised. If you need speed I would recommend a 500W unit. Good handling over bumps, good… Read more · 1
energy savings if you don't mind travelling slower than the racing bikes around you. Very hard work trying to keep up with the racing bikes
Great customer service – I bought my eblike 12 months ago, and it was delivered to my place on time, with no additionnal charge. Great communication too: any email was replied too within hours. I use it to go to work every day, it looks good,and despite of its weight the ebike can help you a lot even going up hill without sweating, which is remarkable in queensland. great customer service
Good buy! – My last bike was a folding electric bike with small wheels and no gears. So heavy and so hard to ride without power because of hub drive and no gearing. Our 2 new Aseako bikes have arrived and been riden on flat paths and up steep hill. Marvelous! We went to Maroochydore to test ride them first and to check out the agent. So impressed we went home… Read more · 1
and ordered 2, the Alto and Sports. Well geared for hills. Can easily ride for exercise without power.
Very Positive Experience – I had an electric bike before this, so I knew what I was looking for. Mainly lighter weight, and not-hub drive. And nice looks, with value for money. So I looked around, and found the Aseako bikes. I was impressed with the pedelec system working through the chain to give more torque, as opposed to the weight distribution anomoly of a hub… Read more · 3
motor on the wheel. So I ordered one, from the Aseako website (though they were the same price on Ebay).
My order was placed by email on a Saturday evening, and the bike arrived on Monday afternoon! I can't get letters delivered that quickly! Assembly was easy (put the front wheel on a spindle, insert the spindle into the front fork, and put the handlebars in place with the provided allen key - easier than an Ikea project!).
After charging the battery, I rode it to work the next day. Perfect. Fun, handles like an ordinary, albeit a bit heavier than ordinary, but not a problem, bike. I bought the disk brake option as an extra. The bike is heavy, and needs a bit of stopping on a hill. I regard that as $129 well spent.
I live at the top of a steep hill 1kilometer long. Pedalling up that hill on my non-electric bike is not on. I walk. Pedalling the Aseako is easy. It climbs that hill at about 15 to 20 kph, without raising a sweat, but still pedalling, that is, not using the throttle and letting the bike do it all (though you could).
It is well built, solid, well equipped (though the front light, whilst OK on a streetlit road, could be a bit brighter, and the very bright red rear light has no flashing option. But you can add to these, and I have.) The service when you ask questions is instant and helpful, and when I did need a part (a second charger, so I can have one at each end of my regular trip), it arrived the next day also. I wish my office was that efficient.
I enjoy the fun of riding (in nice weather) and not paying for parking. The bike is well made, and reliable. I get 30 to 40 kilometers per charge, and the commute takes me 25 minutes, as opposed to 12 in the car, but then I have to park and walk...) The suppliers are helpful and reliable, and the price is better than reasonable. My research shows that the Aseako is pretty much the same (give or take a few bells and whistles, like mudguards or lights) as a Tonaro Bighit or a Gette, or (in the US), a BMartin. And the price of all of these brands exceeds that of the Aseako. What's not to like?
(BTW, I am a public servant - not a corporate shill or a troll, which seems to be the usual accusation you get on some other sites if you pose a positive review. Reliable, value for money, fun, prompt responses from supplier Seat could be more comfy (a lot, actually!), lights not as I woud like them
The greatest bike on the Planet – Ever since a friend told me about an electric conversion kit he had fitted to his standard bike, and how he rides to work from the Mt Gravatt to Brisbane City through wind and up hills with ease, I wanted an “electric bike”. The route I take is not to work, but just for exercise and fresh air along a Broadwater and 99% of the time it is a full… Read more · 1
on head wind in one direction of 10klms. I gave up in the end as a bike ride became too hard and no longer enjoyable.
After trawling the internet and reading up about e-bikes, the decision was made that the Aseako E-Bike was the best value, had the best equipment and was the best looking bike on the planet. (Image is very important!!). Buying a conversion kit for my standard Mountain Bike was not worth the cost or bother.
So along comes one absolutely stunning Aseako Moto within 48 hours and WOW, what can I say, but more WOW’s. The sensation of the Pedelec System and Central Drive is unreal. I cannot compare this to a Hub System as I have never tried one, but all I can say the Aseako is absolutely brilliant and I wouldn't want anything else.
A couple of seconds and I felt this unique umph. Like WOW!.....It is indescribable and after a test wizz around the local park, it was down to the Broad-water. The wind that day was virtually gale force. One could barely walk let-alone try and ride a pushy, yet here I was having a ball and peddling through the wind. I came back feeling energised and fantastic. I had a work out, but I didn’t have to kill my-self in the process. I also went up a rather enormous hill only Tour de France riders could tackle, and the Aseako got me up there without a problem. WOW again!.
So the moral of my story is I cannot make excuses anymore to ride my bike as I have my robust Aseako to get me through the winds and up the hills with ease and this older chick is having a ball getting some overdue exercise and fun riding a bike again along with receiving amazing comments from friends and strangers such as “great looking bike” “wow where did you get that”.
What can I say, of course it is a great looking bike and it also works fantastic too!
Furthermore, the team at Aseako are seriously fantastic. Shaun, Harry and the team are absolute champions in helping out with any queries etc. It is reassuring knowing those at the helm of Aseako are genuine people ready to help at any time.
Therefore whether you want an e-bike to get to work to avoid traffic, fuel and parking costs, or for exercise and/or a trip to the local shops…..The Aseako e-bike is the answer!
Expect to get plenty of lookers and ensure you triple lock it up if you are leaving it in a bike bay. I take a Siren Alarm Padlock with me when I know I am going to the shops. I adore it to bits and no one else is having my Aseako Moto e-bike even though it is insured!
Get one...they are "BRILLIANT" and the greatest bikes on the Planet!
Nothing as far as I am concerned
The best purchase I have ever made – This is my first eletric bike, so do not have the experience of trying another. This is such a great looking bike and I receive comments all the time about how it does not look like an eletric bike. It has made the ride from my property (dirt road uphill) to the bitumin so easy, I would not go back to an unpowered bike again. I had the disc… Read more · 1
brakes fitted which I do recommend, as it is a heavy bike. I have found the battery life to be good, though I only use the electric assist for the first part of my ride. Reliable, great communication from the company
Great bike – My husband and I bought an Aseako a few months ago. I have had a hub type previously and think that the central drive is a much better system. Took a little getting used to, different from the hub, so much more torque, and great on hills. At first, for me being short, the distance between the seat and pedals was a bit of a stretch but am now… Read more
used to it and don't notice it. I am 66 and now ride to work each day, weather permitting, takes me an hour each way, with the best workout on the way home (more hills). Am so glad we bought the Aseako. Would recommend it to my friends, and have. Reasonably priced. Chance to test ride. Distance between seat and pedals a bit of a stretch if you are short in stature.
Great E bike for starter or anyone – i purchased a white E bike today which is Aseako and i have found out below points affordable quality made fast and efficiency phat style reliable battery and long lasting 99/100 and one mark to be perfect if there is pre holes for water bottle mounting bracket :) definately recommended to anyone
salesmanship terrible – Well, how can I descibe what I was told by the sales person [name removed] NOT to buy. I questioned why it was so cheap (in comparison), and the reply; "You may be better saving some more funds and buying a more expensive one if that will make you feel more comfortable." Smart answers like that, with my wife and kids all saying "buy" means I… Read more
won't. In addition, a test ride that was organised by the same person, was cancelled by them.
sales person has a very high opinion - but not of the bike it seems.

Great bike - upmarket version of the Aseako – I was checking out the Aseako but was drawn to its upmarket version - the Zoco. It is essentially the same as the Aseako except for better components like disc brakes, Rockshok fork and the innovative NuVinci Continuously Variable Transmission gearing system. The bike is a pleasure to ride especially with the NuVinci gearing system; well worth the… Read more · 1
extra cost. The unique frame structure looks and feels solid. The crank motor is powerful for its motor wattage. Love the pedal assist system but not impressed with the throttle only speed. Service provided by seller was excellent with prompt responses to my numerous questions prior to buying the bike and in dealing with a couple of initial problems I had with the bike. The NuVinci gearing system makes riding a pleasure as it provides completely seamless gear changes. Had some initial problems with the gearing system but was resolved by the seller. Seller should test the bikes before sending them to buyers.
Excellent value for money – I have owned an Aseako for almost two months now and I thought I should provide a frank and honest review. I must put a disclaimer on this review and state that this is the first electric bike I have owned so some of the cons I mention might be similar to all bikes. Pro's - Cheap. the bike is definitely value for money, - Battery. I weigh… Read more
90kg and put in some token peddaling and don't ride on hills and I get at least 36km to a charge.
- You can leave it in top gear all the time,
- The motor and all the cabling all sit nicely and the bike has a nice finished look to it.
- Customer service is excellent, Shaun from Aseako has been really helpful post sales.
- It is pretty easy to asemble, but the instruction manual is pretty rubbish.
- The front light is incorporated into the power management system and has a red light in the bike On/Off button reminding you that you have left the front light one.
Cons
- Heavy and clunky. It would be nice if they kept the motor and frame and improved some of the componentry.
- Max speed is realistically 35km/h, You sit on about 28km/h on just the throttle, if you pedal you can get up to 32-35km/h but it is pretty hard to get past that and I don't think the motor helps you when your legs are spinning that fast. It could do with bigger gears, then the torque motor on flat ground could really get you going.
- The power management controller seems a bit cheap and flimsy,
- The rear light is not incorporated into the power management system, so you need AA's, but it is LED so I do not think you would need to change them often.
- I think in the long run with sustained use this bike would wear out fairly quickly.
So all in all, I would definitely recommend this bike, I just thought I would point out its bad points to you. Inexpensive, good look Cheap components
Amazing Service, Amazing Product! – When I spoke to [names removed]l, I found they were prompt in answering my questions, honest and very thorough with their details of whatever I needed to know. At first, I wanted a discount on the bike... After [name removed] explained that their small business struggles to maintain such a low price as it is, I purchased the bike anyway... The… Read more
product discription was just incredible but I must admit, I was a little nervous to see what my bike would be like.
When the bike arrived I was gobsmacked at what an amazing quality product I was sent! I felt ridiculous for asking for a discount in the first place! This bike was a steal and arrived within 2 days of being shipped!!! I live in a Regional area of NSW and this just never happens! Im so happy with my bike, and with how lovely the service was.
The bike was a gift for my partner and he cant get off it. He is amazed at how fast, reliable and good looking the bike is and to be honest, I barely see him anymore ;)
I can now ride with the Family - life changer – I have Chronic Fatigue Syndrome and I live on a hill. I have not been able to ride a bike for years as I would wear out well before the hill back home. I can now go out riding with the kids and get some sunshine and the limited exercise I can tolerate. This was way better than expected I feel like I got more than I paid for, almost perfect… Read more
electric bike, I researched a lot and found nothing like this other than double price rebranded identical bike. Excellent business to deal with and very fast responses to email.
I am a perfectionist and these people pay attention to detail everything looks overbuilt and even the tools they supply are very good.
Very easy to assemble if you have done any maintenance on a bike before, if not maybe get someone to help but its not hard.
I was looking for a mobility scooter but that is very limiting. This feels like a real bike only somewhat heavier but this is not an issue as the assist means I can go up steep hills faster than family members even with only a small amount of assist.
Being a Electronics Technician I like the way they have put the package together and build quality of the electrical and wire routing is very good.
The final comment is there is someone to contact by email and you get fast response. I also like the fact they have very reasonable priced replacement parts.
Don't bother getting a cheap hub drive bike, this is the future and 200W is better than a 500W Hub drive, you save batteries and you can use what ever level of assist you need.
Don't worry about support you get better support from them than many local bike shops. I do though support local stores if they can provide good service even paying a bit more but not double or not having no better or sometimes less service.
I could say more but this is a 10/10 product. Built well, Works very well, Very efficient use of battery with gears, gears work well Need a little practice when just starting and going slow if you have the assist on, recommend to newbies to start with assist off for the first few seconds as can accelerate more than expected if you are in a confined area. Mudguard needs to fit better but still good.
Love the bike. everyone should have one – Great before sales advice and service. this didn't drop off after the sale either with all my queries / requests responded to straight away. product is excellent also. i have since sold my car and use the bike to get to and from work. conservatively this is a saving of $2000 a year so the bike pays itself off pretty fast. this bike gets some… Read more
pretty rough treatment and stands up to the dirt track i ride on. i am also near the beach and the salt air hasn't affected it yet (6 months on). So easy to ride and the amount of money i save is going to pay for a pretty good holiday at the end of year The bike could be a bit lighter but all the electric bikes i tried were similar. it probably needs disc brakes also but i am told these are coming
Great bike. Love it – I haven't been on a bike for seven years because of my Chronic Fatigue... but this little puppy pushed me a long, up some hills with next to no pedalling. Cycling was a daily part of my life before I got sick and I missed intensely. But I'm VERY VERY VERY HAPPPPPPPY right now. I can now go for a ride with my husband and kids, something taken… Read more
from me previously. I can't wait to take this with us to the park. Pushes up hills will very little exertion. Heavy
Very Exciting E-bike! – I have been riding my Aseako for a while now (replaced a petrol bicycle)and find this e-bike very exciting every time I ride it. I ride it to work 3 times per week, approx 17km each way and arrive to work without an ounce of sweat on my body! I have some hills around my area and the Aseako climbs these with ease, much more so than my old petrol… Read more
bike. I think this is due to the design of the gearbox and motor system, but it does have good climbing power.
I was sceptical at first as the price seems to good to be true when I compare it to other e-bikes I tested in retail stores, but I guess this is just the online world of retail taking over - low overheads means low prices? Highly recommended in every aspect. Great Price, Great service from Aseako, Very classy looking bike and very powerful
High Quality Electric Bike – Very impressed wih the uality of the Aseako Electric Bike - lots of torque which is great for uphill climbs. We spent alot of time researching our purchase and we have definately bought what we thnk s te best product in the market. High Torque, looks Impressive, very happy and would definately recommend.
Highly Recommended – I took delivery of my Aseako electric bike 3 weeks ago and have ridden it to work at The Rocks (Sydney city) from Surry Hills every day, except for a few days of terrible Sydney weather. What a great way to get around the city, I am totally converted to riding an e-bike now! The Aseako Electric bike is a very smart looking bike and you can tell… Read more
just by looking at the bike how well it is made. I have had many people commenting on the bike and 2 people from my office have also purchased since. Smart Looking bike, well built, great price and even better customer service - 5 stars!

Great bike and goes like the wind – I bought an Aseako electric bike online for around a $1000 recently. There are a lot of e-bikes on the market for around this price but this one is definitely value for money. It arrived by courier and I had to fit the front wheel to the forks and insert the handle bars but it wasn't hard and they provide you with the Allen keys that you need. … Read more · 1
The motor, battery and all the essentials were already fitted and ready to go. You can take out the battery and charge it if you wish or charge it on the bike. The parts all seem good quality. I checked out a lot of electric bikes before buying this one and made a false start with a cheap but nasty fold up electric bike with an SLA battery. It was only capable of about 10k an hour and had total range of about 5k. It also had a hub motor. There is a vast difference between a bike with a hub motor and the Aseako. The latter has a central motor with a chain going to the bike's Shimano gear system so that you can use the gears as you would on a car or motor bike. This gives you a lot more torque and speed for the same size motor. The Aseako cruises up hills without draining the battery (my old hub driven bike crawled up even slight hills with the power draining away). The Aseako seems to cruise on around 28ks an hour in top gear and a bit more if you pedal as well. The main advantage to me is that the motor is more or less silent. The bike I had with the hub motor sounded like an angry tram and the sound became annoying after a while. You can just cruise along silently on the Aseako and enjoy the ride. I suspect you can get about 40k between recharges or longer if you do some pedalling. Its good looking too and I keep getting asked where I got it from. I strongly recommend getting a bike with a central drive system like this one rather than a hub motor. Aseako is a very good buy. Fast, good torque, you can use the motor with the bike's gears, comfortable seat, lithium battery. Looks great. Women like it. The minimum seat height is a bit high but not a problem if you have long legs. A bit heavy but all e-bikes are because of the battery and the motor. Goes like the wind anyway.
Perfect bike with a perfect company – I have worked managing a few large repair centers and i can ashore you that one of the main things that builds a business is customer service then the product. Their service was simply the best i have dealt with on the internet and not to mention their product ..great quality. Love the bike and most of all love that their parts for the bike… Read more
(like gearbox, motor and controller) are well priced and available.
Back to the experience with the bike : A pleasure to ride, feels strong, great gear range and what i was quite surprised with was what that the double rim wheels already had the option for adding disk brakes (which i will be very soon (not that the v brakes are any good quite the opposite).
I have seen other brands that are selling for almost 2k and wonder how long these businesses can keep ripping people off, The ASEAKO bike is very well priced and the same quality.
this is a bike i will be recommending to my friends and anyone who asks. looks great, strong frame, motor design looks excellent and the power suprised me for 200 watts, Option to add mechanical disk brakes,very quite compared to other ebikes i have tested, i ride quite a bit around Botany and the bike has taken all hills with ease . Not really a con since the v brakes preform very well but added disk brakes would have been a winner but like i mentioned before the option is there. Choice of colour would be great
A great bike to ride and great customer service – I've had my Aseako bike for about 2.5 months now and love it. It flattens the hills and removes the head winds. I commute to work & back (40 km return) and generally do this 4-5 days per week, so 160 - 200 km per week. The battery gets me there and back each day on a single charge. The only criticism I have is the v-brakes - I found them to be… Read more
a little inefficient, especially on down-hill stops. I have replaced the brake blocks with a different brand and now have no problems. There is also the option of changing to disc brakes.
I had a battery problem (it basically died suddenly) but Aseako responded to my e-mail within an hour or so and despatched a new one same day. It arrived in Adelaide from Brisbane within 4 working days and they also arranged for the pick-up of my old one. I can't fault their customer service.
The major electrical components are very reasonably priced.
I would recommend this bike to anyone considering buying an electric bike. Inexpensive, looks good, great to ride, great customer service Needs better brakes; no water bottle or pump attachment points
very pleased – ordered bike on line delivered in a week,easy to assemble,have ridden it to work 32ks one way and back (charged at work )cant fault it so far VERY PLEASed,email company with query got reply within an hour or so ,only had it 3 weeks now but seems ok ,had it out in very bad rain didnt make a differance to performance,great . like every thing about bike and so quiet could do with more gears ,and more range ,but this will come as technology improves Show reply
Awesome! – I'm able to ride all my old trails again and more with ease, the battery life is impressive, its still got plently in reserve after an hour of riding up & down step hills. It just makes pedling soo easy and its just like your riding only powerng/assisting when your pedling! Not bad componentry given its price The weight its a bit heavy but you can… Read more
live with it. The rear battery can act a bit like a pendulum when cranking up hills, a bottle style seat post mounted may have been better. I deleted the poxy looking bits like the stand, mudguards, lights & fluro "moto" stickers it now looks Ok. Also fitted disk brakes and a decent seat post , next will be the forks which aren't that great when pushed off road.
Great design, construction,reliability – This bike works just perfectly, great torque for any hill and enough speed for the flat,delivery great,still running like new after commuting for the last year, for the price you can`t find better!. I fitted disk brakes which improved the braking,orthough not needed it`s better in the wet. would have been nice to have it as an optional extra Fabulous value for money The chain can come off sometimes if riding over rough terrain
Great value ebike – I bought this bike about 4 months ago and extremely pleased with it. I live in Maleny which is hilly and the bike is very effective at dealing with the terrain here. I easily get 30km range around here on a single charge and it takes about 5 hours to charge from flat. Did have a minor problem with the motor at 400kms but this was sorted very… Read more
promptly by person whom I bought the bike from. I am upto 600 kms now and love this bike. Inexpensive, great on hills, fun
