The Ride1Up 700 Series has a strong reputation as a powerful and well-equipped city commuter e-Bike. With its comfortable riding position, rear storage rack, large 720 Wh battery, and Class 3 pedal assistance, it was designed for everything from daily commuting and urban errands to long weekend excursions.


Although the Ride1Up 700 Series has now been discontinued, well-maintained examples can still appeal to buyers looking for a fast, comfortable and capable electric city bike at a second-hand price.


However, the amount you’ll receive depends on several factors, including the bike’s age, mileage, condition, battery health, specification and whether you sell privately or through a trade-in program.


In this article, I explain what your Ride1Up 700 Series could be worth, how private sale prices differ from trade-in valuations, and how to calculate its value with Upway’s value estimator.


👋  Welcome to Upway!

Upway is your top destination for buying and selling e-Bikes online. Discover your next e-Bike at up to 60% off retail prices, available in new or like-new condition.



How much is my Ride1Up 700 Series worth?

This depends on many factors, including the age, condition, battery health, specifications, and any modifications that have been made to your Ride1Up 700, as well as seasonal demand and what similar electric city bikes are selling for at the time.

The fact that the Ride1Up 700 Series has been discontinued may also affect its value. Some buyers may still appreciate its strong specifications and value for money, while others may prefer a current model that is easier to repair or upgrade.

Get your Ride1Up 700 valued online

There are plenty of online valuation tools available, although some are more reliable than others.
Because the Ride1Up 700 has been discontinued, it can be difficult to find enough recent listings to establish the current second-hand market price. 

Upway’s website also includes an online pricing tool that provides a realistic valuation for your bike and, where appropriate, an offer to buy it.

We also offer free collection from your home or free shipping, making the process quick and hassle-free.
Although the valuation may be lower than the advertised selling price on our website, reflecting reconditioning costs and retailer margin, you’ll also receive a $150 credit towards your next bike purchase as a thank you for selling your bike with us.

What’s the resale value of my Ride1Up 700?


You can get a pretty good price estimate by visiting an online marketplace for second-hand bikes such as eBay, Craigslist, or Upway.

For example, we recently sold an in-demand Ride1Up 700 model on Upway for $849 — of course, the Ride1Up 700 trade selling price included the cost to Upway of professionally inspecting and reconditioning the electric bike, together with a retailer profit margin.

However, the Ride1Up 700 Series has been discontinued and is no longer part of Ride1Up’s active portfolio. It has been replaced by newer models, which may limit its resale value or appeal on the private seller marketplace.

To get a better benchmark of the current market rate for your Ride1Up 700, drill down into the available listings and view the photographs, specifications, mechanic’s inspection report, and description of the bike’s condition and compare it to your own.

When comparing your bike, consider:

  • Its mileage compared with similar Ride1Up 700 models
  • Battery health and remaining capacity
  • Number of previous owners
  • Full service history
  • Whether the original charger and battery keys are included
  • Whether official or aftermarket components have been fitted
  • Cosmetic condition, including scratches, corrosion and outdoor-storage damage
  • The condition of the tires, brakes, drivetrain and electrical system

All Upway electric bikes undergo a 50-point inspection before sale and include a six-month warranty. Customers value that extra peace of mind and are often willing to pay a premium compared with buying privately, particularly when purchasing a discontinued bike such as the Ride1Up 700.

Because private sellers don’t normally offer these benefits, you may not be able to achieve the same asking price as Upway or another specialist e-Bike retailer.


Trade in your Ride1Up 700 with Upway


A participating bike shop in Upway’s Trade-In Program will inspect your Ride1Up 700, review any documentation and accessories, and provide an accurate valuation using Upway’s real-time pricing tool.

If you live in California or New York, you can bring your bike into one of our showrooms, where our expert staff can provide a reliable quote.

Alternatively, visit one of Upway’s 200 partner bike shops across the USA for a fast valuation and offer for your Ride1Up 700.


What are some alternatives to the Ride1Up 700 Series?


The Ride1Up 700 is a comfortable Class 3 city bike with a rear storage rack, long-range 720 Wh battery, powerful motor and eight-speed drivetrain. It’s a versatile electric city bike and hybrid that is well suited to long-distance commuting, urban errands and weekend bike excursions.

If your needs have changed, though, there are several good alternatives. These are all Class 2 bikes, so while they lack the top-end 28 mph speed capacity of your Ride1up 700, they have a very convenient, motorbike-style throttle assist up to 20 mph.

Ride1Up Rift

An obvious alternative is the fat-tire Ride1Up Rift. It provides greater off-road versatility for weekend adventure riding while retaining plenty of practicality for city use. Its large 921 Wh battery capacity provides excellent range, while the Class 2 throttle can be useful when setting off at junctions, carrying luggage, or tackling longer excursions.

The Ride1Up Rift costs a little more than the Ride1Up 700, so you may want to use your $150 Upway credit to help make up the difference.

Pedego City Commuter

If you’re happy to change brands, the Pedego City Commuter is an excellent electric city bike alternative.
It offers a comfortable, upright riding position and is designed for everyday commuting, errands and relaxed weekend rides. Its Class 2 e-Bike throttle assistance can also be useful when pulling away from traffic lights or starting on a hill.

Pedego Interceptor

The Class 2 Pedego Interceptor is another strong option for riders who prioritise comfort. Again, it has a powerful motor and long-range battery, making it ideal for leisurely city riding and longer weekend excursions. Both Pedego alternatives are lighter than the Ride1Up 700 and may feel easier to manage when carrying or loading the bike on a rack.

Frequently Asked Questions

How can I achieve the best price for my Ride1Up 700?

Keep the bike clean and well maintained, retain service records and original documentation, and include the charger, battery keys and original accessories.

As with a traditional bicycle, you should also repair minor mechanical issues before advertising it and provide clear photographs of the frame, battery, display, motor and drivetrain.

Is trading in my Ride1Up 700 better than selling it privately?

It depends on your priorities.

A private sale may achieve a higher price, but you’ll need to advertise the bike, answer buyer questions, negotiate and arrange payment or collection.

A trade-in is usually faster and more convenient. It also provides greater certainty, particularly when selling a discontinued model or buying another electric bike at the same time.


Does the Ride1Up 700 being discontinued reduce its resale value?

Potentially. Some buyers prefer current models because replacement parts, warranties and product support may be easier to access.

However, the Ride1Up 700 still has strong specifications for a city commuter e-Bike, including Class 3 assistance, a large battery and a practical rear rack. A well-maintained example can therefore remain attractive at the right price.

Key Takeaways


  1. The value of your Ride1Up 700 depends on its age, mileage, condition, battery health, specifications, and current market demand.
  2. Its discontinued status may reduce its value for some buyers, making its condition, service history and battery health particularly important.
  3. Comparing recent marketplace sales and obtaining a professional valuation are the best ways to estimate your Ride1Up 700’s current value.
