Electric Bike Review | Unbiased, In-Depth Analysis of the Best Electric Bikes

I’ll admit, and I should probably say this upfront, I’m a bit biased in this review. The Ride1Up Roadster is one of my favorite e-bikes to date after riding hundreds, and it’s my go-to recommendation for most folks who aren’t trying to MTB or don’t need a fat tire and just want a smooth, great […]

Fat tire e-bikes hit their stride as the do-everything option, you can commute during the week, hit trails on the weekend, and even roll over curbs and potholes without a second thought. The Aventon Aventure 3 High-Step is Aventon’s answer for riders who want that versatility but prefer the traditional diamond frame design over a […]

Aventon’s been quietly iterating on their urban commuter formula for a while now, and with the Soltera 3 ADV, they’ve landed on something genuinely interesting. This is the fourth generation of their lightweight city bike, and it’s clear they’ve been paying attention to what works, and more importantly, what doesn’t need to be there in […]

Look, I’ve reviewed quite a few Urtopia ebikes over the last couple years, and honestly? They just keep getting better. They’re carving out this really unique niche in the ebike market, nearly all their bikes are full carbon fiber and impressively lightweight. So naturally, when I saw the Carbon Fold ST clocking in at just […]

JackRabbit made its name building tiny, weird, fun little rides that weigh less than a case of beer and fold up small enough to toss in a trunk. The OG and XG models are basically electric skateboards with handlebars, maxing out around 40 pounds and perfect for zipping a mile or two. They’re quirky, they’re […]

The Urtopia Carbon Joy Ultra is the newest version of Urtopia’s compact carbon-frame cruiser / utility e-bike. Now, when most consumers hear ‘cruiser or utility’, of them what comes to mind is either a big beach cruiser or a bloated cargo e-bike weighing north of 60-70 pounds. While each bike style has their place in […]

When Tern unveiled the original GSD at Eurobike in 2017, they essentially created the compact longtail cargo e-bike category. The pitch was simple: deliver serious hauling capacity (440 lbs) in a package no longer than a standard bike. It worked. The GSD became the benchmark that spawned dozens of competitors. Fast forward through Gen 2’s […]

The Aventon Pace 4 has landed, and it’s clear this fourth-gen Pace isn’t coasting on the success of its predecessors. Available now and new for 2025, this Pace makeover made calculated yet bold moves – a stiffer frame, a new take on what a cruiser handlebar should be, and injected with tech and innovative security […]

I’ve been handed the keys to a new trike, the Retrospec Boca Rev, and while its name and colorway take my mind away to some tropical island, it’s got me wondering, “Are three wheels better than two?” Well, as it turns out, it depends on who you ask. For some, it’s the stable and safer […]

PuckiPuppy has been hard at work with new e-bike releases in 2025, and now they have their latest electric trike, the PuckiPuppy Rottweiler. The specs are straightforward: 960W peak motor, 720Wh battery with a claimed 55-mile range, and hydraulic brakes. Pretty standard stuff for a mid-range trike. But there are three specific things here that […]

Many of our readers may not think twice about who manufactures the battery packs in the e-bikes we review. Most of the attention usually goes to the cylindrical cells inside the pack—most often made by LG, Samsung, or Panasonic. But here’s what often gets overlooked: not every brand uses the same manufacturer for their battery […]
