This bike is everything that I have come to expect from Vamos. The quality is exceptional. I bought the larger battery option. The battery is from Tesla!! It has a USB A connector on the handle bar so you can have your phone charged as you ride. The pedal assist is excellent!! As you step harder it will help you move faster. This very stable e-bike is like a mobile chair with parking brakes. I can see myself using ti to go on a picnic. You can carry everything with you. There's also tools included to complete the bike.
Update: This is a bike for those who need carrying capacity. Go shopping with this Bad Boy!! I find the low stepping frame is also a good thing for those who cannot swing the leg over. The Motor provides plenty of power and can easily handle the extra weight from you + a full load. The Limited Slip Differential makes cornering less of a worry. Lights work real well, including the rear brake light that lights up when you pull in the brakes. Hydraulic brakes has the stopping power!! A very comfortable seat. The colours are good too, I like the Black & Red. After using it a bit I do feel it could get the full 100KM range or more if you wanted to take it that far before chanrging.
Overall, I highly recommend. So go and grab this 2Nd series while they have stock!!
I recently had my treasured Diablo e-Bike stolen from my front porch. I got it back minus a number of parts and accessories. I called Vamos to buy parts and they were really attentive and made assisting me a priority. That’s me as a happy customer- great product and great service! Highly recommend.
Love my Amigo Vamos electric bike! I commute to work almost every day by this as it saves me so much time. I don’t need to wait for the (slow) bus that’s almost always packed, can enjoy the sun on my face and some mild exercise. I also used to ride a regular road bike, but the uphill journey home at night was always a struggle. Now it’s a breeze! #vamoslife
Great bikes! Customer service was very good. I also got a Hefe which I find great too.

I purchased my brilliant Vamos Papa Grande e-trike a little over 12 months ago from a Vamos agent here in Queensland and I am just as thrilled to bits with it today as I was on day one.
10/10. 👍😊
It has honestly been one of the best things I've ever bought. I just love it!
I'm a retired old bloke and I ride it everywhere and pretty much daily. So much so that I have to remind myself to drive my car occasionally just so I don't let the battery go flat.😀
I recently had reason to phone Michael at their Mascot warehouse seeking assistance to source some accessories for it. What an exceptionally nice guy! 👍 He was so incredibly helpful and he went above and beyond to see that I received what I was looking for.
This is the very first time that I have ever left a review for anything. A great product and equally superlative service can't go unrecognised.
Thanks guys.👍😊
⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐
I took my 2020 El Rapido with original battery along 50 to 60km rail trails in Victoria. I was worried about the battery life but it did it easily, usually only dropping to 3 bars. The twist throttle is great for take offs.
I would just like to reiterate my sincere gratitude to Vamos for your extraordinary after sales care and an amazing product.
Your exemplary after sales service has further boosted my confidence regarding my long term ownership of this magnificent machine.
I look forward to many more enormously enjoyable kilometres to come.
I live in a retirement village quite close to the waterfront and with convenient access to an extensive network of bikeways. I had already 'till now been extolling the many benefits of this type of conveyance in general and specifically the Papa Grande (particularly so for members of our age cohort👍) to it's innumerable admirers and interested enquirers.
Following my exceedingly pleasant interaction with Vamos, these recent weeks, I'm now delighted to also reassure them that they can be completely confident that your ongoing back up support is truly second to none.
Again, many thanks
You guys are champions.
And I, a very happy Papa Grande owner.
Between my husband and I we have one car and have found an electric bike to be a great option to get around rather than getting a second car for occasional use.
Plus it’s so convenient and helpful for those local trips around town to get some groceries or visit the leisure centers.
The El Hefe is a cruiser of strength & comfort with power to spare, just the bike for Summer!! Take it shopping with you as you carry your purchases in your pannier at the back rack! The rear motor can take you up to 40Kmh unladen also be sure to have tire pressures up to attchhive this speed.
So it is a bike for comfort as exercise is optional.
Such a comfortable and firendly bicycle. Makes getting around so much easier and convinent. Never had an issue with it, it's super zippy, and I love that I can take a passanger. Highly recommend
I swapped out the handlebars for a more relaxed riding position with a bit more of a curved sweep. Added a small bike bag to carry personal items (wallet, phone, keys etc….). Performs well.
It's a ture workhorse! Perfect for lugging me and all my gear around (and the occassional slab of beer on the back). Mates love hopping on the back for a lift. Handles a passanger well. With a passanger you do notice a slight drop in speed but that's expected
I’ve just received my new El Hefe. What a bike! I live in a hilly area & the bike flys up the hills with no problem. It’s comfortable, looks good & comes complete. Nothing else to buy. If you don’t have one, get one now!
[UPDATE] It’s been a year since I posted , so, I thought I’d update. I’m still loving my El hefe. Being over 60 & partially disabled, exercise can be problematic. With El Hefe, no problems. Comfortable seat, good gear range & good battery life. The customer service from the Vamos team has been exemplary. I’ve customised my bike, with a springer front forks & leather saddle bags, to give that vintage look.
I love my bike. I can’t recommend Vamos Bikes enough !
I got one 3 years ago. Best bike ever...!! Plus great customers service. Thank you Vamos!
WOW what a beast, read so many reviews on e bikes and kept coming back to the El Doblez for my needs and could not be happier with my choice.
Durability and design is out standing smooth riding and very quite.
I am 60yrs old female and I just love it. Puts a smile on my face everytime I ride it.
Will be buying one for the hubby. FANTASTIC BIKE!
Im loving the bike. I purchased it 6 months ago for Xmas presant for myself a 68yr old man.. I love the Bike & ride it for excersize every day
Best e-bike ever!!! Quality bike. And The customers service. WOW. Thank you Vamos!
I love my Vamos Papa Grande that I purchased last year! Rides like new still!
What a beast of a bike. Love it. Quick/excellent delivery. The staff were exceptional to deal with from enquiry through to purchasing.
Just had knee surgery myself and still in early stages of recovery. Got this as I thought I’d be a really good option for helping rehab the knee and exercise. I wasn’t disappointed.
This swing away carrier was the perfect solution to carrying e-bikes on the back of our motorhome and still being able to access rear doors.
Purchased my El Hefe a few months back. It's the f'ing bomb. Vamos rock 👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍
For my first e-bike, I wanted something versatile. Something that could handle road or dirt tracks, solo cruising with option to take an extra person or groceries. Fat tyres were a must. I was after something that came with excellent aftercare service (actual humans you can talk to in case any help needed). So happy to discover the Amigo at Vamos Bikes, which ticks all these boxes!
Thank you Conrad, Michael and the rest of the team at Vamos for making more “micro adventures” possible with this very well designed bike!
An epic e-bike that can do it all. Arrived the next day. Not much to setup, basically just clipping in and tightening a few things. Been using it for a while now and can't fault it.
I ride 40km every day, commuting to and from work. Very comfortable absolutely reliable. Best decision to buy a Diablo. I also bought the D lock. It was the foil for the thieves this week. Thanks Vamos!
I've had my Papa Grande Pro 3 Wheel E-Trike for 3 weeks now and loving it! I'm getting plenty of compliments whenever I'm out on it. Mainly to the local mall and back. The large storage basket on the back is great for all the daily grocery shopping. The fat tyres, front fork suspension and comfortable seat makes it a very enjoyable ride. With so many enquiries about where I bought it, can you send me some business cards to hand out?! Thanks in advance from one happy customer!
My El Hefe arrived last week and was packed so well it could have been delivered across the Himalayas on the back of a three-legged donkey and still would have got there in one piece. If this bike was an animal it would have the heart of a lion, the legs of a cheetah, and the look of a tiger. But to call it a bicycle is like calling the Burj Khalifa a building. This thing is a beast that should not be used by children or adults with a heart condition. I love it.
Great Bike. I use it as transport to and from work and getting around the city. Saves time and money. With all the bike lanes available it is a no-brainer to get one. The electric component gets you up the hills with no problems. Thoroughly recommend the Vamos Bike. Do not regret this purchase at all. Now my husband wants to get one as well.
The Amigo bike is the best experience for any eclectic bike out there. The all-terrain tyres and suspension makes for perfect riding on all ground conditions. Also, there's heaps of space to fit my bags and beach items in the cargo space! Well done Vamos Bikes!!!
I love my new Vamos bike! It is super stylish and reliable, I ride my bike everywhere. The bike is easy to use and has plenty of room in the back for a friend. Would recommend.
I previously had a Diablo which is an awesome e-bike. I've now recently brought the new Amigo as a bit of an upgrade and it's even better! Just like my Diablo, this purchase has given me so much joy and comfort. I live in a busy part of town. Parking and traffic can be a nightmare on a sunny day. An E-bike makes my life so much better. I never have to experience the stress of sitting behind a queue of cars that don’t move and looking for parks that don’t exist ever again thanks to having this bike. And after owning a Vamos for a long time now, if I'm ever going to own an electric bike it's going to be a Vamos! Can't fault their durability, performance, and quality. I've never has an issue with my Vamos. The guys at Vamos are super great to deal with and I love supporting a local Aussie company too.
Like many people, I get around with plenty of gear. The Amigo allows me to travel with all my clothes, food, bags, and surfboards for a long day at the beach. For me it's way more practical than my Diablo and allows me to do a lot more. The large wheels, strong frame, and inbuilt carry features are perfect for a heavy load and it can handle more off-road riding like on the sand and dirt. I can even swap the rear basket for a rear passenger seat so a friend to sit and ride with me on the back. It's super practical and like it says on the box, it can truly do it all.
I love this bike more and more everyday and so will you!
Amazing product 10/10
Amazing bike, I love it ! Very powerful and nice design
I love it! I’m not much of a cycling person (weak legs) but being able to zoom up hills on the Amigo made riding a total breeze. I think the option to have an extra seat on the back or change it to a bag holder is an amazing design. Highly recommend this bike to anyone and everyone!
I'm so happy with my Amigo e-bike purchase from the guys at Vamos! They were super helpful and friendly and went out of their way to answer all of my questions. I love that I can ride around with a friend on the back seat! This bike is perfect for every situation, especially cruising along the beach at low tide with a surfboard searching for the perfect wave. I highly recommend this bike to everyone, as we all need an amigo in our lives.
Got this bike the other day and is my favourite e-bike by far! Super comfy and super quick, I feel really safe and secure riding it. You can also tandem with another person on the back really easily. No regrets!
My wife and I purchased the Rockymount Back Stage last year and have just completed 2000 kms and the bike rack carried our two e bikes perfectly and securely. Fitted to a camper-van it worked so well being able to swing to the side and be able to have full access to the rear door. Putting the rack together was straightforward and easy enough for two oldies. Instructions easy to follow. Service was wonderful as was the delivery time.
I needed a folding electric bike that could also ride on dirt roads where I live. I wanted something that had a big battery capacity and good torque for hills. Vamos bike arrived and is just perfect it’s a lovely small bike beautiful to ride and comes with a very comfortable seat. Service from Vamos was great. I highly recommend it 5 stars!
The Vamos Diabolo is the perfect city commuter
Have used this rack on the car and on the camper trailer. It makes carrying the bikes and having access to the vehicles so easy. Love this rack for what it does in all areas of use.
Awesome Trike! Highly recommend getting one!
Perfect e-bike. Has everything I was looking for and is great for the price. I really like it!
I'm 67 and haven't really ridden a bike very much for a long time. Bought the Diablo and am loving it. I don't worry about hills or getting too tired. My only worries are the magpies.. but putting the bike in pedal assist 5 I can leave them behind pretty quickly. The bike looks to be great quality
I often ride in pedal assist 1 or 0 for the exercise but shift up to 3 or 4 or 5 if I get a bit tired. I now exercise a lot more than I have in the past. I am really enjoying my Vamos Diablo. Also the customer service is above and beyond.
Thanks Vamos Bikes!
My wife Annie went through a comprehensive process in choosing an electric bike. Ultimately Vamos ticked all the boxes. Even then the bike exceeded expectations. We were a bit concerned with not being able to check it out in person. But I thought at worst we could send it back with the free returns. Needless to say, we didn’t return it because it's great. Solidly built, super comfortable and an extremely durable battery. A great purchase.
I'm loving the power of the bike and how comfortable it is to ride, it's like the Ferrari of e-bikes. It has really impressed with the comfy seat and overall quality of the bike in general.
Have only had my El Diablo (The Red Devil) for a week and am loving it. It exceeds all expectations. Spent some time adjusting the seat and handlebars to my size and preferred riding style and find it a very comfortable ride. I find myself choosing to use the El Diablo instead of my car!
Love it and would recommend it to you!
Awesome electric trike. Heaps of fun and appears really well made. Best service that I have ever experienced too. Thanks Vamos!
I brought the Hefe cruiser and absoluteley love it! Awesome bikes, great quality, heaps of fun! I also have the Doblez too. Can't fault 'em both.
I brought the Doblez foldable. I absolutely love it! Awesome bike, great quality, heaps of fun! I also have the Hefe and it's amazing too! Exceptionally well made bikes. I highly recommend getting on a Vamos if you're in the market for an e-bike.
Neither myself (58) or my wife (54) have ever been cyclists. Due to some physical limitations on my part (knees and feet) walking more than a few kilometres is not possible without paying for it in pain.
We started to look at e-bikes so that when we travelled around we could go further than just my walking distance which had become quite limiting. Those things that are a bit far to walk but not the same when driving or you can't take a car. We finally settled on the El Doblez because it was foldable, had a throttle so you don't have to pedal at all and we could fit two in our Hyundai Tucson.
After 4 months of ownership, I couldn't be happier with our purchase. They have exceeded my expectations.
We got the 16Ah battery but I was still concerned about range. I didn't need to be. We have done a number of approximately 20km rides on relatively flat ground, pedalling a bit of assistance and used 1 bar of battery out of 6. I recently took it to Bathurst we're my father lives to see if it could do the race circuit around Mt Panorama. 15km round trip, 1 bar used. I did have to help a little on the very steepest sections.
Around town, it is handy to have the throttle to make hill starts and accelerate quickly across intersections before the pedal assist kicks in. What's more, I've found I am pedalling much more than I expected so I'm getting healthier.
It's easy to fold and put back up. It is a little heavy, 24kg including 3.4kg for the battery which slides out easily for charging or to make it lighter.
Full charge time is about 6 hours. The charger gets quite hot 54°C by my themo reader.
I wouldn't rely on the headlight much for night riding.
Fat tyres are great for running on and off pathways etc without getting caught.
The screen is easy to see, has all the information you need and easy to use controls.
It is what I call a little twitchy to ride compared to a full-size bike which I put down to the short wheelbase and steering angle. You get used to it though.
I contacted Vamos for some advice on rear carriers. They were quick to respond with information even though we bought ours at our local shop in Redcliffe Queensland. I've added one for me. It attaches to threaded tabs on the bike and the seat post with a quick release which pushes the seat a little high for my wife. I'm looking at some others for her.
Put simply, we love them, we have a new hobby to do together. We plan to take them away with us anywhere we drive to, we can explore much further with them. We're also planning days to travel along the many "Rail Trails" and cycleways available. I duck down the shop for small items rather than starting the car. If possible we will own an e-bike for as long as we're able to ride them.
Haven't had much time to learn steering and handling (which are quite tricky for me), but I appreciate the sturdiness and all round quality. Here is my Papa Grande at work in a moso bamboo forest...
Life on two wheels ♥️ Two wheels is better than four. Nice little carry space on the back and easy to ride around in. Can ride all day.
I love taking my El Doblez out to watch the sunset. A very smooth and cruisy ride leads to it being very dreamy.
Purchased the El Hefe cruiser.. really enjoying it and it’s as advertised online… the staff at Vamos were readily contactable by phone (which was answered by a person) and quickly sorted out some very minor issues I had with the LCD settings. Would recommend the bike and the company to do business with…
Written by happy customer..
Great little fold up E-Bike that I can take anywhere I want to go. Easy to use. Bravo Vamos!
Amazing bike. Could put my legs up in the air and not even worry. Super easy to use.
Love Love Love my Vamos Papa Grande Trike!!!! My thanks to all the Team at Vamos. Delivered Incredibly Quick, A treat to assemble, couldn't resist Personalised Color Matching " Rego " Plates. Fudgy dog cruises comfortably in rear cargo then trots home alongside. Beautiful smooth easy and safe ride from my perspective as a disabled shoulder injury customer. Maree P
Great for people like me with short legs! Easy to use and very comfortable.
Looking good! My El Hefe arrived today, earlier than expected. Feels comfortable already. I haven't been this excited in years.
Awesome bike. Makes someone who hasn’t been on a bike in a very long time and little confidence, a very confident rider.
It was amazing exploring the rail trail on both our Papa Grande’s. With power and a nice cargo spot to take us anywhere, we loved it.
We now have 3 Generations enjoying a long ride on our Vamos Papa Grande’s. Ages 16, 46 and 72.
We all love our trikes and each time we ride we go further and further. Today’s ride was just over 19km and it was my 16 year olds first ride on her Papa Grande that we got on Friday. Papa Grande all the way.
I have purchased this e-trike from Vamos bikes at Mascot and have been dealing with two great guys named Conrad and Michael. I can’t talk more highly for this particular trike. It offers me great stability because of my balance problem on a 2 wheel E-bike, the comfort of riding this bike certainly impressed me along with the ease of changing gears and using the full on power from the 48 volt battery. I can easily achieve a speed of 30 kph, but I must admit at this speed it feels as if I’m in a Ferrari. All in all, once purchasing this e-trike, the buyer would would never look to buy or ride another 3 wheeler, there is just no comparison for this 4 inch (100mm) wide tired “Cadillac".
Good choice. Papa Grande for excellence.
It’s been more than a year now since I’ve sold my car and chosen to commute to work exclusively by bike. Alternating days on my road bike and ebike, I get to ride by the river and through park lands daily vs being stuck in traffic. 2 days on the Vamos El Hefe and 3 days on my road bike makes it sustainable and fun. I can honestly say that I’ve consistently had a brighter and more productive day as a result! I arrive to work happier and definitely energised which is a win for my students!
3000km now and still going strong. Unleash the beast! What’s surprising is that I don’t miss my car! El Hefe has been a trooper. What headwind?
I love my El Rapido! The bike I got is super and works smoothly. Would highly recommend. 🙌🏼
A great zippy fold up e-bike that you can take with you on a bus.
The back stage rack is an awesome bit of kit. Tilts down, swings out clear of my barn doors on the cruiser and folds up when not in use. Came with cable to lock bikes to rack. Is heavy but it's also quality.
They make hills disappear and the bikes are fantastic quality. Just had my first ride of my Vamos Papa Grande and did 11km easily with pedal assist on either 1 or 2 and I haven’t ridden a bike in 20+ years (well I tried last year on a normal bike and the most I could do was 3km and my knees didn’t like me much).
I think my 72 year old Mum who bought these bikes is pretty stoked too and she feels so much safer.
Would happily recommend to anyone and everyone 👍👍
Comfortable and user-friendly, low maintenance, and requires no experience to operate or assemble. The Vamos e-bike was the best option to get me around when solo, and has also been an amazing way to release anxiety.
El Hefe looks great and rides well. Feels really stable and powers up those hills. I have had so many positive comments from people. Cannot speak highly enough. Great service from the guys at vamos.
Highly recommended. A bit pricey but worth it. I love it so much.
I just love this electric bike (El Rapido) and the extra support it gives me to keep up with my mates when riding. The extra help from the motor when going up hills is just wonderful. In general, I feel a little bit safer knowing I have that extra acceleration to rely on if needed to get me out of trouble
This is the best e-bike on the market by far, looks very sleek, handles any terrain like a dream and super easy to operate and use. The throttle is my favourite feature of the El Diablo because it makes the bike really easy to control and super easy to get up hills with. I really am in love with this bike. On top of that I couldn't recommend Vamos team more as from start to finish I had a fantastic experience with them, all questions were answered properly and thoroughly and they genuinely care about customer experience which means a lot to me.
I got the El Diablo e-bike, high quality, easy to switch between speeds, dashboard so simple to read, easy port for charging, and I can carry it up my single flight of stairs with the light weight. I'm loving it!
Very good service!
Thank you!
Best bike to get around the beaches on without struggling up all the hills. Get one!
Life is like riding a bike, to stay balanced you must keep moving. I took the quote literally and decided step out of my comfort zone, and try out the 'El Rapido' bike from Vamos Bikes.
I loved it so much I decided it was my Mother's Day gift to Me.
Comfortable and user-friendly, low maintenance, and requires no experience to operate or assemble, 100% Australian road legal, and you don't need a licence or registration. With petrol prices being so high, the Vamos e-bike was the best option to get me around when solo, and has also been an amazing way to release anxiety.
Great bikes! Super easy to use and lots of fun
Great cost-effective, low-carbon footprint way to get from A-B. Everything about this bikes is awesome.
I love my Papa Grande e-trike! Everywhere I ride I get comments about how awesome it looks.
Vamos bikes crew are so easy to work with. They are a pleasure to deal very quick to dispatch anything that you need. I bought a Rapido bike and am more than happy with it. The guys are just a pleasure to do business with.
Best e-bikes around! Love my El Hefe! You won’t be disappointed 🚲
I have a Vamos, best thing I ever did, sooo good!! Got one, changed my life Wooohooo!!!!
El Hefe 🔥🔥🔥 one of our favourite ones!! Congrats for all the work guys you are absolutely legends!!
I have had my El Hefe for a few weeks now and consider it as one of the best purchases I have made. I bought it as an easy alternative for my commute to work each day. Most of my ride is along a bike track and after a few days was wondering why everyone was waving and saying hello as I rode past. I then realised/was told that it was cause I was smiling at everyone as we passed. Riding my new bike makes me happy and I can't thank Vamos enough for making a product that really does do what it says it will do on the box.
I purchased a trike as I’m not a confident rider. It’s a very solid good looking rig and I had fast friendly service from Conrad.
I ordered the bike on Tuesday and I had it by Friday. After taking it out for the first time I had a few questions for the guys and again they helped me out no problems. I highly recommend this business. Top quality bikes and service. Happy days!
My 2nd Vamos bike purchase!
2K on the El Doblez. it’s taken a while because I go 2-3 days on the road bike to work. But seriously proud of the transition to being a 1 car family. I’d encourage everyone who can to give it a go. Even if it’s swapping out 1 day a week first, then 2, then through winter. El Doblez has been a great addition to the family. Super comfortable. Love it!
This is a super strong rack. I carry my E bike with it which is not light. It is a brilliant rack.
I like this bike rack it is very easy to use, solidly built and looks great!
The Rocky Mount Monorail is very sturdy. We carry E mountain bikes as well as E bikes and it does the job really well.
11/10. Recently got the El Rapido and has made life so much easier! Trips down to the beach, to work or to the shops, all the while avoiding any traffic. The team were also incredibly helpful in answering all my questions making me really confident in ensuring the bike was right for me
Friendly team, fast and cheap compared to others of similar specs
I’ve just received my new El Hefe. What a bike! I live in a hilly area & the bike flys up the hills with no problem. It’s comfortable, looks good & comes complete. Nothing else to buy. If you don’t have, get one now!
Bikes are awesome, really good design and super functional. After purchase was sensational
Always have a mint time on the Doblez bike!!
Friendly team, fast and cheap.
Since Conrad dropped off my Vamos El Hefe cruiser e-bike, I feel like my world has opened up. It’s SO much easier to hit my daily surf checks of Bondi Beach, Tamarama and Bronte, and yesterday when the surf was small, I took myself on a ride of the hilly backstreets of Bronte to check out the swing overlooking Bronte Beach for the first time. An amazing way to clear my head and get those Sunday vibes flowing right!
Purchasing a vamos bike has been nothing short of life changing for me. The anxiety I felt sitting in traffic, looking for a park on a hot summers day at my local beach, is something I will never feel again!
Not only has this beautifully crafted transport benefited my mental health, but also my physical, encouraging me to cycle everywhere including work, the shops, and family visits.
Any chore that was once boring, is now fun!
I ask that you do yourself a huge favour and get on the Vamos electric bike team, and watch your life dramatically improve!
Ridding around on the Hefe is the funniest thing
I have a dual cab ute with the RockyMount Monorail on the back. I can have the bikes loaded on the rack, tilt it, and open the tailgate which means I can get to my tools during the day and have a ride after work. The locking mechanism makes the rack safe. It is a really good rack at a very sharp price.
Rapido is mad fun highly recommend
Extremely satisfied customer, this purchase has improved my life like I couldn’t believe!
Highlights include:
-Lunch break visits to see my girlfriend for ‘support and encouragement’.
-Carrying 48 beers from point A to point B.
-The lack of anxiety and other mental health issues associated with driving cars. No more, thanks.
-Admiring dogs from a new perspective.
-Plus more!
Cheers fellas for the great work you’ve done in promoting a fantastic way to travel.
What an awesome find the El Doblez has been! It gets me to the beach, to the shops and to work - all without breaking a sweat. The motor is very responsive and the throttle start is a big bonus in stop-start traffic. If you're looking for an inner-city commuter, look no further. Thanks Conrad and team!
Very good rack, works well and is easy to use. Strong construction.
I love my Vamos Rapido. We travel full time and it was purchased in Cairns. I use it to explore the regional towns that we visit. This year we are heading to South Australia. Great service from the staff at Vamos. Thanks for helping me make memories on this amazing bike.
Such a great bike, el strong, el reliable, el FUN. EXCELLENT bike 😍
Thanks Vamos for a truly awesome Ebike! The service has been excellent and my El Hefe is one slick looking bike. It cruises easy and eats up big hills with little effort. If you’re looking for a trustworthy retailer and high quality product, look no further than Vamos Electric Bikes.
We drove from Adelaide to Darwin with the bikes using the Monorail. The rack worked well and was up to the task. Very well made and a great rack which I would highly recommend.
My Papa Grande has arrived and it hasn’t disappointed my expectations. On my daily ride out to greet the sunrise, such a joy to ride, worth every penny. 42km range, stable and a joy to ride as I do every day. I ride it everywhere, it goes everywhere I need to go with ease. Do yourself a favour and get one! The Trike rules! Pape Grande the best trike ever!
I recently purchased a Vamos Rapido. This is one of the best things that I have ever done and would recommend it to any one who is thinking about it and maybe a bit doubtful. Have no fears you will never regret it. Excellent before and after sales service and easy to assemble, only a couple of allen keys needed. I am 93 years of age and need the power assisted exercise so that I can go at my own pace. Steepest of hills no problem. The longest ride so far is 7ks out 7ks back, plenty of battery left. Have only had it since just before Christmas so still learning, but no problems there. So my message to everyone is "Get on your Bike" Cheers.
Recently got the El Rapido and has made life so much easier! Trips down to the beach, to work or to the shops, all the while avoiding any traffic
Purchased the Rapido 2021 a few weeks ago and am very impressed with the quality of the bike, as well as the ease and comfort of the ride. Perfect for navigating the hills of Paddington on the way to work, the Rapido is the perfect daily commuter. A full battery easily gets me 2 return trips to the city (from Woollahra) without charging. Highly recommend this bike for anyone looking to get around the inner city with ease.
I ordered a Vamos Rapido 2021. It was delivered within a week and to say I was impressed with the bike is an understatement. Best packaging I have ever seen and an absolutely fantastic bike. Great customer service. Well done. From unboxing the Rapido I was very impressed on the level of care taken for the customer to receive the bike in excellent condition. I love the riding position and suspension on this bike. The performance is above my expectations. I’m a big believer in you get what you pay for but in this case I believe I got more.
When riding on main roads, bike paths or off road, the El Hefe is comfortable, powerful and turns heads. I love it. Highly recommend.
This bike rack was exactly what I needed and it works brilliantly on my Prado and Sprinter van. Easy to fit, operate and swingaway to access the rear doors easily. We carry two 20+kg e-bikes and it handles it just fine. Well built, designed and robust, with a nice locking feature.
An awesome design. Purchased the RockyMounts backstage swingaway in January 2021. Rack is fantastic and fit for purpose. Not having to take the bikes off the car every time we wanted to get into the back was the main reason for selecting the Backstage, and it was ideal. My only criticism with the rack is that I think the tongue that inserts into the towbar would be better if it was a bit longer. Given the weight of it, it would strengthen the connection, but the design of this rack is awesome.
Great experience getting a Rapido, Vamos boys are very friendly, highly recommend
Absolutely fantastic. Bought the El Hefe. Strong, reliable and fun. Excellent customer service. I recommend Vamos. Buy an ebike from them NOW!!
Works perfectly and doesn't get too hot.
I love my new El Hefe!! Holy shit! Soooo much fun.. Perfect for Canberra. You guys have designed amazing e-bikes ooozing with style..
This is by far the best bike I've ever purchased. Rides so smoothly, battery lasts forever and also looks bladdy awesome!
Mike and Conrad were legends, love my new doblez so much!
Really enjoying riding it. It is easy to step through to get on and off and I really love the throttle for when I feel too lazy to pedal. Although it does tend to use the battery up a lot faster if you don't pedal.
I bought one for my wife for her birthday. She loves it. No longer need to worry about parking spaces or hills! Conrad and the guys at Vamos super helpful all the way through the purchase and after sales. Highly recommended.
So I was looking for an E-Bike to get this old 73 year old body around, so I bought this Papa Grande today, and before I sat on it I thought to myself this is the bike I want…I have stability problems, and this bike took care of that straight away. I don’t have a problem with controlled speed…just a twist to the acceleration connection took care of that…..I just love this E-Bike, and it is light enough for me to load into my Ute and unload it. Thanks to the young men..Conrad and Michael for their attentiveness and help…Well done fellas
I hope the reader pays these guys a visit at Mascot and if you do… make it a point of visiting the “John” if you have to go….The “art work” on the four walls of the “John” and the sayings would put a modern day Picasso on the floor rolling around in fits of laughter 🤣😂
All the very best with it fellas…and thanks heaps with your help
Regards ….Greg Semple
P.S. Will try and upload photos when I get a chance
First E/Trike Purchase. Wanted something to set up to take me fishing either off the river bank, off the breakwater or off the beach. After looking at a number of trikes I settled on the Papa Grande. 500 Watt motor, available carry baskets, tyre size were all part of my consideration. All trikes had their pluses and minuses, but the Papa Grande came out on top. Not disappointed. The power and acceleration of this machine has impressed me. I have finally finished adding the accessories that I wanted to make it suitable for the purpose intended. These include a floor in the cargo rack, rear board to accommodate rod holders, additional tail/blinker remote light, dual headlights (a low and high beam) to help find my way off the beach at night, mirrors, and an electronic horn. The attached photos show the finished product, and yes, the "number plate" says it all. Happy to provide any further details if required.
Note. this trike is probably not suitable for shorter people. At my height of 166 centimetres and the seat at its lowest setting, the ride setup is just right. If I was any shorter I would probably struggle with pedal reach.
Great bike love mine. Great for cruising around the island and on my local beaches.
The best value for money E bike you can buy in Australia matched with the absolute best service from Michael & Conrad. There is nothing that is a problem to them, just ask & it happens. If your looking for a bike don't go anywhere else.
I had an El Diablo delivered last week. Love it.
I love this bike. Has a bit of everything with nice seat and easy handling. Thanks to the amazing team at Vamos. Such a pleasure buying from you.
Vamos has been my favourite and I am sure will be yours too!! You guys are so helpful, kind, and honest.
My Rapido is just perfect and the most comfortable ebike ever!
I genuinely appreciate your service!!
And thank you for everything!!
Vamos is fun and love!!
Absolutely love my new Vamos El Hefe Bike. Firstly, I wanted to back a local company, price was really good, reviews were good, gear (Shimano / Samsung) spot on. Really hard to fault. Customer service was brilliant, as was delivery (despite a slight delay which is down to customs and overall e-commerce being overwhelmed for all companies). Final comments - fairly basic to assemble, rides really well on the beach, road, tracks. Lights all easy to use. Super comfy. Thrilled with this thing. 👌🚴 🏄♂️ 🏝
From the monent I saw the El Hefe, I knew this was the bike for me. Being a fairly big guy, I thought that its larger size would make me feel more at home and I wasn't wrong! I use this bike a lot now and I'm amazed at how far I can travel using assistance from the motor. The styling is very cool as is the practicality. It is quite heavy but considering the amount of equipment and size of the bike, this is to be expected. I just love it!
I’m more than happy with my el Diablo e-bike from Vamos, no problems at all during ordering, purchase and delivery. After sales service is fantastic, with any phone calls, emails, and texts answered promptly. I would thoroughly recommend Michael and his team if you’re in the market for an e-bike.
In my research during the first Covid lockdown, I kept on coming back to the Rapido as the best quality-for-price "town" eBike even though it wasn't then in stock. Although I have a much loved Giant 880 front suspension mountain bike, which I rode across Spain following the Camino de Santiago, my view was a different form of bike was needed in response to the pandemic (i.e., avoiding public transport; being able to cycle in good clothes; rack for bag/shopping ...).
I'm so glad I joined the list and waited for the new model with front suspension to arrive in the country.
The Rapido ticks all the boxes for being the perfect "town" bike, and Conrad and Michael's approach to customer service is just great.
It has been almost a year since taking delivery and zipping about on my red Rapido continues to bring much joy.
Big smiles all round! Thanks again guys!! We're thrilled!!!
Great bike. Living at the top of a hill is no longer an excuse not to ride a bike. Although I do not always use the battery, it's nice to know it's there. I still like to ride the bike in the traditional fashion and it would be nice to have more than 7 speeds. This bike shifts beautifully, steers well and rides smooth. So glad I have this bike.
I purchased this bike over a year ago now and am still absolutely loving it. Great customer service, easy to use, perfect for hills. Would strongly recommend. I ride it to work each day which is roughly 10 km and I go past all the traffic, get to have the enjoyment of riding a bike without getting red faced and sweaty before work!
Great bike. Had for over a year now. Good customer serivce
This is my second VAMOS Bike and I love it. It's a great, simple, stylish eBike. It has a sleek design, minimalist, and it's powerful and convenient. I use it to commute to work and an occasional tour around the Sydney suburbs.
This new version features a great and comfortable seat, hydraulic breaks, and a better throttle mode. Top build quality and value for money.
If you are looking for a nice eBike to move around, it's a perfect fit.
I've had my El Hefe for a week now and fair to say I'm in love! An absolute beast that's super fun to ride, fast and smooth. Perfect for the commute to work - no more boring train rides for me!
Got my El Hefe, a few probs putting it together correctly. The guys at Vamos were instantly answering emails at 9pm.
I'm 75 and lovin my bike. I'm 6'1". A good fit for me, very comfortable
At my age I needed strength and stability. I have a quarter KM of dirt road before I get to a sealed road at my house. I also have a very steep hill so the power was a big factor.
The clincher was an Aussie company. Thanks Vamos.
... and who'd a thunk? Never thought I'd need a surfboard carrier at 74. Perfect to carry my bow to archery on my El Hefe.
UPDATE: Just coming up to 1,000ks on my El Hefe. Zero probs and loving it.
Works a treat very stable and gets well out of the way for that big back door.
The El Doblez is a small bike. But even for its small design, the bike has amazing power for a 350 Watt motor and just 12-inch wheels. It packs a punch with 5 ranges in power. 1 is just enough to use your peddles. 2 it will make it more easier with little effort. 4 I wouldn't bother peddling. 5 like 4 as 25-30KmH can be achieved without peddling, just be sure that the tires are well pumped up!!
You could take this with you on a Bus. As an MTB rider, it did take of something to get used to but you will love this bike. It comes complete with everything you see in this website. The T shirts are also cool too.
This is a powerful bike with it's 12" wheels and Very Powerful Brakes!! just be careful with those brakes as they are strong!! So it's worth the money.
So do the Pre Order with Vamos Bike's in Sydney NSW Australia and you will not be disappointed!!!
So Ole!! Bravo on this Bike
One of my favourite things to do in summer is cycling. El Rapido is a real game changer. Whether it be a commute or a trip to the gym, I love being out with it. Comfy as well.
The Vamos team really know how to please their customers and pay attention to detail. For anything you need or if you have questions about the product, their 24/7 support is amazing.
If you are unsure about anything, they're available. They've kept me incredibly happy and have always been quick to respond.
For me, communication is the key and the Vamos team have taken their service to the level of excellence. No wonder their products are selling fast. I'm glad I purchased via pre-order to get mine. The wait has been well worth it.
A BIG thank you to the Vamos team from me.
Great Rack. Excellent quality, really good, highly recommend it.
Can you handle the power of vamos! Love my bike! I purchased my El Rapido 2.5+ years ago. Sold by friendly staff who truly live what they sell! Bike worked a charm and I was provided with clear instructions on how to assemble. Excited to see what neat bikes they produce next.
This is a good system. It works well. I carry an E mountain bike which is heavier. Having the rack on the back compared to the roof makes loading easy. The rack stores away flat.
My bike is the best!!! I've had her since Feb 2020. I love my Vamos Rapido bike, where I live is very hilly and she takes me everywhere with minimum effort and also I don’t have to worry about parking anymore!! I can’t stay without it!
These bikes are great, my wife and I got one each and we just fold them up and put them in our sprinter campervan and when we set up we can get into town or cruise around the sights without having to pack up the van. We love them.
I work at a leading bike store in Australia and recommend this rack to anyone, whether you’re carrying an e-bike, mountain bike, road bike or any other bike, this rack is reliable, sturdy and looks good. I’ve got one on my car and always drive away with a smile on face.
I’ve had the MonoRail for about a year now. I typically use it with mountain bikes. Really quick and easy to secure the bikes to the rack. Bikes are held on securely even when off road. The whole unit tilts down even with the bikes on so I can access the rear of the car. I like that if I don’t have the bikes on it can fold up against the boot too.
Brilliant Rack. I’ve had mine for a few years now and it’s still as great as the day I got it. When you have bikes worth over 10 grand you need a rock solid rack you can trust, I regularly take bikes interstate, including e-bikes and the Backstage gets them there in perfect condition every time. The swing out feature is fantastic, given the rack is quite heavy we leave ours on all the time, being able to easily swing it out of the way makes life very easy.
Couldn’t be happier, highly recommended.
This has revolutionised how I get around! I use it to commute, get to the shops etc. it makes the hills in sydney so doable. Best bike, such a comfy seat, would highly recommend.
Best bike on the market! Sleek design, easy function and usability but the best part was the communication and customer service. All my insecurities about set up and shipping were handled well by Conrad and his team! Thank you
Epic bike! Never thought I’d be the owner of an e-bike but this thing goes and the seat is super comfy! Easy charging. Just love it. The Vamos guys know what they are doing!
I love getting around my home town with this beast!
I’m in love with Vamos bikes. Easy to ride and great after sales service! Highly recommended!!
Best bikes and best service! Totally recommended!!
Recently bought the 2021 rapido and I love it! I use it daily to get to the office, very nice and light to ride! Definitely recommend it!
My Rapido is great. It's halved my commute. It's the best thing ever.
I looked for ages for an electric bike that had hydraulic breaks and this is the only one I could find in my price point.
It's got the comfiest seat. I love getting around on it.
Great aftersales service, and prompt communication, easy to deal with. Owner of El Diablo for one year now.
We purchased 2 bikes and have clocked up over 100km around the city in just over a month. Easy to ride and great power for the steep inclines. We purchased them for a campervan because of the foldable design and all terrain capabilities but the fun around the city is amazing. Throughly recommended and very to ride. Some many people stop us to ask where we purchased them because they are so impressed.
Such a fun bike to ride around, I use it for my commute to work but have also taken it on holidays. Super fast and super fun would highly recommend for all terrains and uses. The service from the guys are great too!
I have the El Diablo, such a fun bike to ride on all terrains. Highly recommend, the service from the guys are great too.
Just got my El Hefe speedy delivery Sydney to Phillip Island in Victoria 2 days. Service and communication from the Vamos crew was excellent could not ask for better. The bike is stunning very well put together absolute beast of bike. Will be an ideal island commuter and beach cruiser. The video on here of an owner putting one together was helpful.
My wife and I just bought two of the folding Vamos e-bikes to take away with us in our camper van and we love how easy they are to set up and store away and they go for ages on a charge. Very easy to ride and we ride a lot more around home on them too as we are near a great cycle track. Thanks guys!
What an amazing locally owned Australian company. From the moment I spoke to Conrad and his staff I was astounded by the dedication of him and his team team. After explaining to Conrad my needs and wants he pointed me to a bike that I have now owned for over 14 months. I go everywhere on my bike and I'm so pleased I made the decision to buy one. No matter what the question was, I could call their friendly dedicated team and they were ready to assist me in any possible way. In fact I had an issue where I had knocked a wire off the battery. I rang Vamos and within a couple of hours I had Conrad ringing me back to arrange a time to come and try and fix the problem. He was there within an hour of my phone call and sorted the problem for me at no charge. VAMOS electric bike’s service is second to none. Not only would I buy another bike in the future but I would recommend this company to not only my mates but to the whole of Australia. The whole experience from start to finish was so easy and pain free thanks to Conrad and his amazing staff. THANKS GUYS.....
Juan Carlos - BONDI BEACH
Had my Vamos bike now for over 12 months. Daily use to and from work and the surf. Could not fault the bikes. We have a baby seat attached, our little fella loves it too. Conrad and the team offer great help for any questions or help.
I love it… But I've pimped mine and since last March have travelled over 10,609kms two sets of brakes and one set of tyres. Give them a go it will change the way you get to work. Fastest speed down hill 56kph but had to hit the breaks so…
UPDATE: Still love my Diablo after now almost 3 years in march just waiting on the upgraded battery, And have ridden almost 25000 km around Sydney in that time. The best investment I ever made.
Fantastic bikes - would highly recommend. Unbelievably comfortable seats, reliable, safe and speedy. Plus I looked like a total legend riding El Hefe
Had a cruise around the Hunter Valley on these and they were perfect. Powered up those hills in no time! Would highly recommend for any outing.
I purchased the El Rapido October 2019. Great value purchase and have had good service since. HIGHLY recommended
Great bike and great service. It’s a nice looking bike and has never let me down. The owner is also very helpful and I highly recommend Vamos!
Purchased my Diablo a year ago due to loss of license. I cant express how amazing this bike has been. I have used it daily to get to and from work for the 4 months whilst without a license. The boys have been amazing in providing support with ordering new brakes at an economical rate.
Just want to say HUGE thank you!!!! Such a great bike for the Eastern Suburbs, best way to get around !!!!
I have a Vamos Rapido Commuter. What an amazing electric bike! I have always had trouble keeping up with my three boys on the bikeways. Now I get where we are going a lot quicker with less effort. I recommend these to anyone looking for a quality affordable commuter style e-bike. An awesome bike and the customer service is second to none.
I had purchased ebike few months ago and have got electric issues.
They have fixed the issue within a couple of days with free of additional cost.
They had shown tremendous customers service and full of commitment. I want to highly recommend it thank you!
