Description

The company promised in early 2023 shiny new e-bikes with 750 w motor, regenerative braking, 28 mph, leather seat and grips, premium accessories, blah blah blah for the discounted price of $1699 for early adopters with a $100 in refundable deposit which later became non-refundable. Delivery was promised by early 2024 with a 10-day return policy which vanished the moment bikes began to ship. The delivery date kept getting pushed back and pushed back. Finally by end of summer 2024, some people started reveling their bikes. Our VIP Facebook group was ecstatic, however anyone that criticized the company were banned from the FB group. Some of us started our own FB group called Teleport Ride Owners Group. We posted about how some of us never received bikes, not having a phone number to call the company, unanswered emails, confusing emails, the disappearance of the return policy. We also noted, as there were engineers in the group that there was a lot of false advertising once we received the bikes. There was no regenerative braking, no 750watt motor, no 28 mph, and also no leather grips, saddle and some of us didn’t receive the accessories we paid for while as the months went by, many didn’t receive bikes at all. Some were successful with chargebacks on the credit cards and most of us were not as Teleport was sometimes successful in lying to the banks. We began posting on Reddit and on Trust Pilot. The TrustPilot score was 1.5 with 60 or so reviews and TR worked really hard to post misinformation in response. Now, many of the reviews are fake and the score is at 3.8 now. Also, the FB group and Subreddit threads were banned because TR complained of ‘copyright infringement’. Straight up bonkers. Can you get the word out about these scammers? They are attempting a second batch priced at $3799. These bikes are Zodan AliExpress bikes probably worth $600. They were ‘based’ in Edmonton for batch 1 and are somehow ‘based’ in Denver.
