Ride1Up just released the sleek and affordable new CF Racer1 carbon e-bike

New e-bike models are popping up all the time, Ride1Up is the latest with the introduction of its new marvel – the CF Racer1. Boasting a fusion of top-tier performance, affordability, and visual appeal, this e-bike is positioned to lure riders into the realm of serious e-bikes without the hefty price tag.

How does the CF Racer1 perform?

We’ve been impressed by the quality of Ride1Up models in the past, and the CF Racer1 might just continue this legacy, while offering something completely different. Priced at a modest $2,195.00 (with a limited-time launch offer), this e-bike redefines what riders can expect in terms of features and functionality. The ultra-light carbon fiber frame serves as the backbone, offering exceptional strength while keeping the overall weight impressively low. This makes the CF Racer1 an ideal companion for riders who crave speed and agility.

Expect this bike to be your companion on all adventures whether on gravel roads, bikepacking or as a steady and nimble urban ride.

At the heart of the CF Racer1 lies a potent 250W BAFANG motor. This powerhouse provides the necessary boost for tackling uphill challenges and maintaining impressive speeds on the open road while not sacrificing a great deal of weight. The motor is intelligently designed to enhance the overall riding experience without compromising the sleek aesthetics of the bike.

Unlike some e-bikes, the CF Racer 1 powertrain is seamlessly integrated into the frame, providing a streamlined and visually pleasing look. This not only adds to the aesthetics but also enhances the bike’s aerodynamics, contributing to an efficient and swift riding experience.

CF Racer1 Versatility

The CF Racer1 boasts a comprehensive set of components that further elevate its appeal. The VeloFox DM02 Display on the handlebar provides essential information such as speed, battery life, odometer, and riding mode (eco, mid, or high). The Rival 1 160mm hydraulic disc brakes ensure stopping power, and the one-piece handlebar and stem contribute to the bike’s overall stability.

Tailored Riding Experience

The CF Racer1 is not a one-size-fits-all solution. Ride1Up understands that riders have diverse preferences, and thus, the CF Racer1 is available in two versions – road and gravel.

The bike also available in two sizes – Small (50cm) and Large (56cm). Additionally, riders can choose from two captivating colors – Rainbow Black, Gloss & Clouded Gray – allowing for a touch of personal style in every journey.

Final thoughts

As part of Ride1Up’s commitment to making e-bikes accessible to everyone, the CF Racer1 is currently available at a discounted launch price. However, the MSRP is set at $2,295.00, making it a compelling investment even without the promotional offer.

We love the look of this bike. When combined with the quality components and carbon frame, the price is impressive. And we are genuinely excited to see what it can do on the road, and are hoping to offer a more fulsome review of the bike as soon as possible.
