The Jetson Bolt is an amazing bike. I ride it to work every day. I also like to take it for cruises around the neighborhood just for something to do. It’s a fun little guy for the price.
Size/Weight/Frame
The bike is rather small, it stands about 38 Inches tall and can handle about 250 pounds but still has enough torque to get to speed quickly. The bike weighs only forty pounds and has a handle you can use to carry it. It also can be folded so it will fit well in the back of a vehicle. The Jetson has 14” wheels with no suspension so any potholes or bad breaks on the sidewalk will give you a bumpy ride.
Speed
For the size of the bike, I was amazed by the amount of power the little bike has. It is not a lot of power but just the right amount of power to make a 30 min walk into a 10-minute joy ride up to about 15 mph and with the Jetson app it can be made to go a little faster. My kids also love it, I found for my 13-year-old and 16-year-old, 15mph is fun but faster is better. I would say the bike is too fast for my 9-year-old to control due to the small wheels and is a little wobbly.
Battery
Charge time is not bad and the amount of ride time you get out of a charge is also good. Even though the bike moves at a good pace do not expect to climb any hills. It really is a flat land type of bike. I was able to ride for about thirteen miles on one charge. Hills drain the battery quickly. Pedals would have been great for the extra boost to get up those hills because I had to walk the bike up the inclines due to lack of power, but that is a different model.
Jetson APP
The app was neat, but the app crashes a lot, I thought it was my phone, so I tried it on another and has the same issue. The app allows you to set maximum speed, name your bike, change passwords for locking, and system self-checks.
Comfort
Depending on your size I suppose would depend on your comfort level. I am not very tall, but I weigh almost 240lbs. so, the seat is kind of small but doable. Watching me on the bike is like watching a bear at the circus ride a minibike but 13-year-old son looks to be a better fit for it due to his smaller frame and weight.
Final Verdict
The Jetson Bolt is probably not for the guy who is a extreme cyclist, but for a young adolescent it is a great beginner E-bike. Great for short distance riding or cruising. I would definitely recommend the Jetson Bolt if you are not wanting to spend a lot of money on a E-bike but want decent performance for what you pay for.
