    I also got one and have already made my tires tubeless and got rid of that awful DMN front fork...it's in the trash and I put a Rockshox Yari fork. I have also ordered carbon wheels that should come soon. Also I have upgrade the front sprocket to 40t and updated the shifter and derailleur to sram SX. I received the notice for the battery issue/replacement

      Hello, I've had it for more than 2 years now and have ridden it more than 3000 miles. It's had its issues, mostly Bafang motor blew out twice and both times had to send it in for repairs. I replaced the chain and gears once already. I also replaced the brakes but this is just normal maintenance. The battery can do about 25-30 miles average, of course, that really depends on environment, weight, hills, etc. Overall, I'm really happy with the bike and enjoying it immensely. Was this helpful?

      Hello! So i've put over 2500 miles in 2023 on this bike and yes I've had some issues. I've sent the Bafang motor in TWICE for repairs - 2 separate blown gears. That's more an issue with Bafang rather than Luna. I've also replaced the chain since I wore it down pretty significantly. Let me know if you have any other questions.

    Just wondering how tall you are. I'd like to buy one of these, but I'm worried about the fit. The standover height on even their small frame is 31 inches which is higher than my inseam. I'm 5'6 but I have short legs and a long torso.

      I'm about 5'9" and I ordered the small and glad i ordered that size. It's a near perfect fit. There was an issue with the battery and emailed them. It took them about 3 months to send me a new battery (probably due to supply chain issues). Overall, fairly happy with the bike. Haven't used it much in the last 3 months just cuz I've been busy.

    What size is your bike. I am 5'9"(30""inseam) so the chart says I should be on a medium. I prefer the smaller size, lighter wt, more agile. Does the seat tube go up far enough to give you the proper leg extension??(If the seat post can be extended to the same height as the handle bar I would be fine). Luna customer service is not helpful at answering Any questions. Disappointing!!!

      Hi there. So far this year alone, I’ve ridden 1500+ miles on it. The bike blew a motor recently and I had to send it back to Luna for repairs. Also, the gears were stripped, dunno whether it’s from riding so much or just cheap gears. It’s a solid bike but it’s been showing some age as of late.
