Does this fit/sit on a bike rack that's attached to a hitch at back of car?

Definitely, it should be possible. I follow their YouTube channel, and there's a video that mentions what you're considering (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=BOOyidzW4jA&t=3s). I'm planning to buy one and will try it out; I'll report back afterward

Yes, all electric bikes are now designed to fit most bike racks that attach to a hitch at the back of a car. However, I recommend checking the specific weight and size capacity of your bike rack to ensure a proper fit。

It should be possible. I saw someone in the comments mention that taking the bike camping looks pretty cool. I'm also considering this brand; I've been researching it for a month now, Finger on the trigger ...haha

Sure! A few months ago, I bought a Senada Saber and have already taken it camping, fishing, and for fun trips. The e-bike is very secure on the car's rear rack. I've only been riding it for a few months, but I already feel like a kid again!

How loud is this when motors are being used?

I don’t think the sound is too loud, as I hardly noticed it while riding.

Can I have a passenger sit on it? What is the weight capacity?

I'm not entirely sure about the exact weight capacity of the rear rack, so you might want to check with customer service. However, I have installed a child seat on the rear rack and often take my child camping. The rack is very sturdy, and I haven't encountered any issues so far.

I've often taken my son out for rides since I bought it. My son weighs about 50 pounds, so you might use that as a reference. A little suggestion: if you're planning to take your child along, it's best to get a child seat fixed to the rear rack like I did. It's safer that way.

I'm not sure if the back rack can hold people, since I’ve never tried it. I’ve got a milk crate attached to it, which is perfect for hauling all my stuff when I’m out and about. It’s super handy and holds a ton. The only downside? It doesn’t handle rain well—it’s definitely not waterproof! Haha.

Finger on the trigger …. can anyone comment on customer support or warranty issues and cost of extra battery?

Stripped my crank arm from a loose pedal (my fault) 200 miles in and their customer service was prompt and in 24hrs informed me that in 3-4 weeks the new crank arms will be at my door.
You get a lot of bike for $1100 from Senada. Plenty of companies charging $1800-$2000 for similar bikes with horrible customer service. Batteries are very high quality.

I bought a Senada electric bike last year, and when I received it, I found that it didn't come with a battery. I contacted their customer service, and they responded quickly, sending me a new battery promptly.

Moral of the story: if you know how to present a case to customer service, they know how to respond quickly, and it can all go very smoothly.
I've been riding my Saber for a couple months. Love it! No problems with it until today, when I lost power, and it was throwing up Error 6, then shutting down. Hard to pedal without power!

Hi Tombalabomba,
Thanks for getting back to us.
The code E06 means low power, please fully charged the battery.
We noticed the discharge connector on the battery is burned, please don't worry, we will ask our manufacturer to send you a 6pin connector for the battery and the bike frame, our battery has been upgraded with 6 pins (it is more stable and it is not easy in poor contact).
About replacing the discharge connector, please cut one wire first to connect the new wire (for example, black to black), then cut another wire and connect. The wire could be spliced by the heat shrink tubing. Please get assistance with splicing the wires at this link:

About replacing the discharge connector on the bike frame, please unscrew the screws (green arrow pointed), then pull out the connector. After that, please replace the new one and tighten the screws by then, at this time, please notice the direction of the discharge connector (yellow circled).
Please get assistance at this link:

In addition, kindly confirm the shipping address:
(Yes! They asked to confirm my shipping address, which matters because I'm moving soon. Also, this email included diagrammed photos and arrived within eight hours of my contacting them with pictures and written details describing them, along with a request for how to proceed. Excellent customer service, which I'm relieved with after last year's long shipping delays had me doubting the company at first, but it was really an imports industry-wide issue then, and I believe they've since purchased two warehouses in America for faster shipping.)

A few days ago, I bought their Austin model, and before it was shipped, I received an email from customer service reminding me to confirm if the bike was suitable for my height to avoid any unnecessary trouble. I think they are very professional and considerate.

Had an issue with my senada peddle breaking off. Sent a photo and mailed me a new one with no issues.

My peddle broke off too, send them the picture and all that's left is to wait for the new pedals to arrive. The support team at Senada told me do not put force on the outside of the peddle. Make sure you have your foot close to the crank arm when applying force, and it can reduce the probability of damage, with very professional and excellent customer service.

Love my Senada Herald Plus and totally respect the Senada customer service department. I wished I could say my e-bike arrived without any shipping damage but my luck is pretty consistent and generally not in my favor. The box was delivered in decent shape, the bike was secured, well packed and heavily wrapped. Even so we found while unpacking that the rear fender was heavily scratched and noticed the top battery cap had several hair line cracks and a small chip near the charging port. While neither of the damaged items kept me from immediately riding the bike, I took pictures and sent them with my concerns to the Senada team through text and e-mail. Just a couple days later I had a response and continued dialogue that led to me receiving a replacement fender and battery cap. Both items were delivered about 2 weeks after confirming they were being sent in perfect condition. I now have logged 65 miles of enjoyable riding on what is my first e-bike purchase. I'm 66 with achy knees and am so glad I decided after year long search to purchase the Senada brand. My Herald gives me the ease of bike riding with enough power, speed and comfort to continue doing what I enjoy. I know its early in my e-bike adventure but I truly feel the quality of the Herald Plus along with its affordable price tag is the best overall purchase I could have made.Thanks again to the Senada team for helping make my 1st e-bike purchase complete,

Was a good service . Online service was excellent . Delivery was on time no damages . Thx u

it's an awesome bike it's worth twice that all day long I mean check it out! Thanks to my Viper ebike I have a few thousand miles on it now. Hey man just so you know I have no problems at all and customer service has been Dynamite. Alrighty then; oh yeah don't forget to make sure you get your battery key. I got my console key but when the bike came it didn't have a battery key but they took care of it right away,knees inda breeze!

How is the battery performance? Is the battery life really as advertised?

The battery life should be pretty decent. I got one for my wife around a year ago, and even now, it still holds a charge for her two-day commute. I'm thinking of getting one for myself now because it's way cheaper than driving. Fingers crossed, her e-bike battery keeps going strong!

I'm not sure. I just got my viper last week and have charged it once. The battery seems to last pretty well, but I don't know how long it will last overall.

2/21/25 - UPDATE

After several months of testing, it has been proven that the battery life is excellent.; after a 10-mile ride, I barely noticed any depletion. Additionally, the bike's "cruise control" feature is a fun touch that I look forward to exploring further.
I'm going to buy another battery just to keep in my saddle bags so when I get lost and that's what I like to do just hit all these back roads I've never been on before up here in New England Maine and Vermont still have the covered wooden bridges ha beautiful. Thanks to my Viper ebike I have a few thousand miles on it now.

I bought a Senada Saber a few months ago, I have ridden almost 400 miles in the past two months. I will begin by stating that although I am an active person, I am 220 lbs. I was in Mt. Hood Village, OR. when I received the Saber. I assembled the bike, charged the battery, and my son (on pedal mountain bike) rode 14 miles up Lolo Pass, 28 miles round trip. I only used Pedal Assist (PAS) Level 1 & 2 because I wanted to test the range of the battery. I rode around town a little bit over the next few days and then took a solo ride up to Timberline Lodge - 18 miles away. The battery died just before I reached the lodge, and was able to ride back down hill and pedal where needed to get back to the cabin. So with hill climbing (and downhill returns) I was able to get around 75-78 miles on the 21 amp hour battery.

The battery lasts a long time and he’s never had it run out on him.
This bike arrived one day earlier than the expected ship date which was awesome because it was a gift for my son’s birthday and it arrived on his birthday. My husband was able to put it together easily before he came home from school to surprise him with it. He loves his new electric bike and he rides it to and from school now and every evening!

I have owned the Senada saber for three months and have put 205 rough back country miles on it.
The bike is 78 pounds with the 21AH battery, has a 5-speed pedal assist and an estimated range of 45 - 80 miles but the range depends on how much you pedal and the type of trails you ride. I personally found that on mountain dirt trails with modest incline, me peddling 15 percent of the ride I got 45 to 80 miles from a fully charged battery.

Unless you don't take care of it at all, I've had good luck with my archon battery... I got my kids hoverboards when they were younger and concerns about batteries were brought up then. Those hoverboards are still alive and kicking now because I've taken care of it. And I would hope the technology have advanced since 6yrs ago.
I plan to do the same with these ebike batteries. I dont get the battery down to below 20%. And I dont ever leave it on the charger plugged in (I have it on a timer that shuts off power after 12hrs).
I told my oldest who will be going to college in a 2yrs that he'll be taking the bike with him... hopefully the battery will still be good.

I recently bought a Viper, and the battery life is pretty close to what was advertised. Since I'm a big guy and I love going into the woods to relax and breathe fresh air (haha, that's one reason I chose the Viper—it really feels like a beast taking me through the forest!), I can travel 68 miles on a full charge. It's a bit less than advertised, but I suspect that's due to the cold winter weather and my weight. However, it doesn't bother me much. I'm planning to buy an extra battery as a backup so I won't have to worry about when to head back.
I've only had it for a short time, but the battery life seems fine so far. I hope it continues to perform well!

Looks like the breaks are wired disc's, I would be abit worried about the stopping power, anyone with experience on this?

I've already had saber for almost a year.I have not found the manual disk brakes to be an issue. I've never felt like I wasn't going to be able to stop in time.

Yes, spending an extra hundred dollars is definitely worth it. I recently bought the Senada Saber Plus, and they upgraded to hydraulic brakes. So far, I haven't encountered any braking issues, and the experience has been great.

If you're really concerned about mechanical brakes, you can check out their hydraulic brakes. I've also been looking into their electric bicycles recently. Seems worth it to spend 100 more for the 21Ah, with hydraulic brakes.

It's not that big of a concern. With the cable brakes, you might get some cable stretching over time but regular maintenance should take care of that. A well maintained brake, be it rim brake, cable disc, or hydraulic disc, will perform as designed comparably. There will be some environmental variance (as in wet conditions) between the types but all things being equal, they're comparable if they're well maintained. And maintaining cable brakes (both rim and disc) is easy.
