Wave 2.0 New Features
Meet the new and improved Wave eBike Beach Cruiser! We’ve come a long way from the Original Wave eBike and we’re proud to feature several new improvements including:
-All new aluminum frame
-Electrical wires are now tucked into the frame
-Welded battery rack
-Red LED light wired to the battery and controlled with the LED display along with the front LED light
-New and improved comfy seat saddle
-New and improved side kickstand
-New and improved quick release seat latch
-All new synthetic leather grips with luxury stitching
3 Power Options When Riding:
2. Pedal Assist: Start pedaling and you will be in pedal assist mode. In this mode, pedaling is easier with the assistance of the motor.
3. Power Off: Turn off all electric assistance and ride the Wave 2.0 like a normal bicycle.
Wave 2.0 Description
Using the Wave 2.0, you could use pedal assist, which will boost you to a full 30 MPH if you’re really flying along, or you could choose to go full electric and cruise up to 25 MPH. You can also pedal manually without the motor, of course. The throttle is a 3-Level cadence sensor with pedal assist, which means you can use the throttle by itself, or pedal and have automatic assistance from the motor at three different power assistance levels. The maximum recommended weight limit for riders is 300 pounds. As for rider size, while we don’t stipulate absolute minimums or maximums, the seat adjusts to allow for riders between 4’11” and 6’7″. The seat extends 8 inches, which puts the seat 41 inches above the ground. The minimum seat height is 33 inches from the ground.
When your product ships to you, you will receive your new Wave eBike partially assembled, so professional assembly is required. The shipping container would be much larger (think of the handlebars and pedals in place) if the bicycle were shipped completely assembled, so we break it down a little bit in order to make the package smaller and make shipping less costly for you. This is done as a cost-saving measure for the freight of transporting the shipping box. We pass these savings on to you.
Check your local laws for helmet regulations and other safety requirements. We strongly recommend that you wear a helmet when riding the Wave eBike. We do need to stress, however, that the Wave eBike is not a toy. No person under 18 years of age should operate an electric bicycle. Operating an electric bicycle carries an implicit risk of death or injury, particularly if the operator fails to abide by all relevant safety precautions. We disclaim all liability arising from the risks assumed by operating the eBike. The Wave eBike has moving parts and electrical components that may present hazards to children, and these may not be obvious to children the way they are to you. Before using it for the first time, and periodically during your ongoing use of our product, inspect the eBike for worn or damaged parts, loose components, or other signs of wear. If you do find a problem, contact customer service. While using your eBike, do not wear loose or flowing clothing, jewelry, or other items that could get tangled in the bicycle’s moving parts, including the wheels, spokes, and drive chain. Make sure you don’t exceed the maximum rated weight of the eBike when riding.
Color Descriptions
Pearl White: This color has been popular among luxury cars and SUVs for quite some time now, but now it’s on an bicycle and it looks amazing. Pearl white has light properties similar to that of an actual pearl such that it shimmers in certain areas of the bike based on the angle of the light.
Satin Black: The perfect blend between standard gloss (shiny) black and matte black. It is right between these two colors in terms of shine and has a nice soft luster that looks amazing in any light.
Candy Apple Blue: This blue is one of a kind. It has been used on exotic sports cars, motorcycles, and has an almost metallic property in that it has a nice array of shades based on the angles and curves on the bike when the sun is shining on it.

I am not going to say the brands of other ebikes I’ve owned as this is not a comparison review, but I do want to say that the Wave 2.0 is the best of the three I have owned because I have some good reference points. It is a pretty straightforward eBike that’s easy to use, stylish, and really comfortable. That was the huge kicker for me- comfort.

I’m obsessed. From the first time I hit the throttle without even pedaling this thing took off like a rocket. It’s more fun than anything else I’ve owned in years. You don’t know what you’re missing out on until you get one.

Definitely better than expected, especially for the price. Ive been looking for 5 weeks for the right eBike and pulled the trigger on the Wave 2.0 for a couple different reasons.
1- The price. I couldn’t find anything else in the price range of around $1k with a 48V 750W motor and 10Ah battery with Samsung cells. Anything with those specs was $2k+. And anything around $1k had 36V 500W motor at best. I dont live near any major hills, but I wanted a nicer sized motor because from everyone I spoke to at bike shops they said they are more durable, will go faster, and farther and easier uphill (my least concern). I test rod a few 36V bikes at a shop near my house and they all seemed to have a much slower acceleration and top speed compared to the 48V motors. I was willing to spend $1k on a 36V motor, but really wanted a 48V and wasn’t really willing to spend $2k (the price of a used moped), so when I saw the Wave 2.0 I was sold.
2- The look and design. I personally think the Wave 2.0 is a much better looking eBike than 90% of the other eBikes Ive seen. I don’t know what it is, but most eBikes are just outright ugly. I think most companies are too focused on the electrical engineering and dont give any thought to the design. But beyond the design is the comfort factor. Im 62 years old and have no desire to lean over on a bike anymore like I did back in the day with mountain bikes, especially when Im going 10-20 miles on a bike ride. The Wave is a cruiser setup so you sit upright which is comfy for me and my back on long rides.
The negatives about the bike are 1. the weight although I dont think there are many other eBikes that weigh much less unless you want to spend $4k+. I think this is an issue most eBike companies have to deal with in general. And 2. it takes 3-4 hours to charge the battery but I wish I could charge it in 15-30 minutes (Teslas can do it, so why not an eBike?). Again, I haven’t seen other eBikes charge this fast, so I think it is a problem with eBikes in general, but hopefully they can work on this.
Overall after having my Wave for about a week and putting 45 miles on it I am really satisfied and would recommend it to anyone looking to get a nice looking and comfortable bike with great specs at a decent price.

I bought my Wave 2.0 back in 2017 and it’s still going strong. I’ve been riding it weekly on the weekends probably 10 miles so it has quite a number of miles on it. The only thing I’ve changed so far has been the rear tire.

Im 6’4″ and 235 lbs and a 53y/o guy and this wave 2.0 surpassed what I thought I was getting. Luckily the seat height adjust high enough that its comfortable for my height but I also think the cruiser style and having the handlebars the way they are helps the overall comfort factor. The seat has a quick release latch so my wife can lower it in 3 seconds no problem when she wants to use it. It has loads of power and I haven’t even tested the range yet as I haven’t had a need to go 23 miles yet, but I really like how you dont have to pedal at all with this bike. I thought most electric bikes you have to pedal and then the motor kicks in (which the Wave 2.0 can do), but you can also do literally nothing with your legs and just hit the throttle on the handlebars and it just takes off. Its just fun to have the option to pedal when I want and then just sit back and relax and use the throttle completely and not work.

I couldn’t wait any longer for the Lady Wave because I wanted an electric bike before Christmas, so I ordered the Wave 2.0. Shipping was incredibly quick and having someone set it up didn’t take much time either. My biggest complaint is that it’s not a step through frame, so I have to swing my leg over and around the top of the bike to get on, which is why I really want the Lady Wave and the reason I can’t give this product 5/5 stars. Besides the lack of a step through frame, I have no complaints. In fact, it’s more than I bargained for in terms of speed. As someone new to electric bikes, I was expecting something that would help me along when I didn’t want to pedal, which it does…and then some. I could never see myself using the full throttle and going 25+ MPH as it just seems too fast for me, but then again it’s nice to have the power when I need to go uphill.
This is one of the more attractive electric bikes I’ve seen out there, it comes with all the upgraded things I like on a bike like the gears, disc brake, and lights. The lights are especially great at night because there is a front headlight and a red light on the back of the bike, both of which are connected to the bike permanently so I never need to worry about replacing or charging separate batteries since they run off the same battery that the motor does.
Having the Wave 2.0 for about 5 days now I must say it is one of the best gifts I’ve ever gotten for myself and I am really excited about getting the Lady Wave and having 2 Wave electric bikes in my garage.

I bought the Wave 2.0 as soon as I saw it was available last week and after having it assembled I immediately took it out for a ride. My first impression was probably skewed because it was the first electric bike I’ve ever ridden, but must say that I’m hooked. As soon as you press the throttle and feel the motor kick in your hooked. Ive only riden it a few miles so far just because its getting cold but it is by far the most fun Ive had on a bike in my life to say the least.
So besides the fun factor I must say that the build quality is top notch. The frame is super sturdy and the gears and brakes work well, just like a typical non ebike would, but Im just surprised at how fun it is to ride a bike in this cruiser style. Typically Ive ridden mountain bikes and other bikes where you have to hunch over more, but I really like how comfortable it is to sit upright. Im looking forward to riding it long distances without being tired or sore the next day from an uncomfrotable position.
I would highly recommend the Wave 2.0 to anyone looking to get an ebike. I did some research for several weeks before buying and haven’t found anything in the same ballpark in terms of price for the performance you get here.

I am pleased with my purchase. My goal was to get outdoors more, while alternating between my car and this bike to get around. It’s definitely serving its purpose and the ability to pedal with the help of the motor creates entirely new bike riding experience. With a little bit of pedaling, this bike easily climbs a hill. Smooth ride

I have owned two ebikes in my life, the 1st I bought about a year ago from a local dealer and got ripped off on the pricing. After receiving my blue Wave 2.0, I took it to a local shop to have it assembled and have taken it on several trips around the city all about 15-20 miles roundtrip. Overall it is a lot faster and has more torque than I expected. It has no problems going up most mid-steep incline hills. There are no shocks since it is a cruiser style frame, so you definitely feel the bumps in the road if your going over bumpy roads compared to say a mountain bike with shocks, but I prefer the cruiser style because of my back problems. It is more of an upright sitting bike than any other style which makes it very comfortable for long rides, so I will trade the upright comfortability for the feeling of bumps in the road.
Ive gotten it up to 25 MPH on a flat neighborhood road, but don’t really see myself cruising that fast very often since it that’s a pretty high speed. You have to click the red switch on the handlebars to remove the speed limiter because supposedly there is a max limit law set to 20 MPH. I really like how the front head light and rear red tail light are both hardwired to the bike, which means I never need any extra batteries. They connect to the main battery that powers the bike and turn on by just pressing the light switch on the control unit on the handlebar. They work really well at night and make night riding feel a lot safer.
Overall I am pretty satisfied with my purchase after about a week, so hopefully I get a lot of use out of my new Wave 2.0.

Living in Ohio isn’t the easiest place to find a good local electric bike, so I turned to the Internet to find a bike and after countless days of research I ended up with a blue Wave 2.0 at my home and couldn’t be happier. It goes faster than I need and farther than I’ll ever need, but it’s nice to know I have the options and don’t have to push the limits like some of the lower end electric bikes.
