Should you buy one?
Buy the Wallke F1 if you want a cheap mountain-style e-bike that fits a bike rack and you’re fine with 2 in tires (10:42 to 10:55). On Amazon it was about $1,000 after $380 off when I made the video (8:06 to 8:22). Its 500W motor felt like more power than the 750W Cyrusher XF900, because the bike is smaller and lighter (8:56 to 9:20).
Skip it if you care about how the parts feel. The handlebars, brakes, screen and seat all felt cheap to me (10:02 to 10:19). The tires and brakes are cheaper than on the other two bikes (8:24 to 8:38).
The deciding factor: price. It has the same motor size as the Aventon Sinch for roughly $800 to $900 less, by my numbers in the video (10:21 to 10:42).
I rode this bike for a three-bike comparison, not a full solo review. You can read the Sinch ST vs Cyrusher XF900 vs Wallke F1 comparison for the full head-to-head.

Source note: times in parentheses are from my comparison video. Everything marked (Wallke) is from Wallke’s F1 product page on wallkeebike.com. That page listed the F1 at $1,199 and sold out before it was taken down. In the video I said “seven or eight” rear gears (9:24 to 9:26); Wallke lists 7.
What I didn’t test
I didn’t run a range test, a top-speed test, or a braking test. I didn’t weigh it. Wallke doesn’t list a range figure on the page I used, so I’m not giving one.
Who it’s for
- Riders on a budget who want a 500W bike that feels quick (8:56 to 9:20).
- Riders with a hitch or roof bike rack. Thin 2 in tires fit standard racks (10:42 to 10:55).
- Riders up to about 6’3”. It fit me at 6’1” (8:49 to 8:56).
Who should look elsewhere
- Riders who want fat tires or full suspension.
- Riders who notice cheap contact points: bars, seat, screen (10:02 to 10:19).
- Riders who want hydraulic brakes. These are mechanical (Wallke).

Rival specs are from the brands, as listed on my review pages for those bikes.
The F1 is the lightest of the three. The Jasion is cheaper with a bigger listed motor. The XPeak2 costs more but has fat tires, hydraulic brakes and a bigger battery.

FAQ
Is 500W enough?
On this bike, yes. It felt like more power than the 750W XF900 because it’s smaller (8:56 to 9:20).
Will it fit a tall rider?
It fit me at 6’1” (8:49 to 8:56). Wallke lists 5’4” to 6’3”.
How far does it go?
I didn’t test range. The battery is 48V 10.4Ah (Wallke).
Can I still buy it?
Wallke’s F1 page now redirects to its main e-bike listing (Oct 23, 2026). Check the Amazon link for any remaining stock.
Price
When I made the video, Amazon had it about $380 off, which put it near $1,000 (8:06 to 8:22). The list price I gave on camera was wrong. Wallke’s own page last listed it at $1,199 and sold out. As of Oct 23, 2026, that page redirects.
