Unbiased, In-Depth Analysis of the Best Electric Bikes
This broad category of electric bikes feature efficient tires to navigate neighborhood, city, and urban environments without the noise and drag of studded tires. They may come with racks, fenders, and lights.
The 2016 Blix Komfort+ builds on the beautiful design aesthetic of the 2015 model while keeping the price constant at $1990 now offering paint-matched plastic fenders, integrated LED lights and a bright sturdy carry rack standard! There are two frame sizes to choose from and each has includes a different wheel diameter to further raise […]
The EVO Toba HB1 is very bike-like and almost normal… it uses tried and true drivetrain components from Shimano (Alivo and Acera) offering 27 speeds, which is significantly more than a lot of ebikes in America that opt for 6 to 10. The frame is Aluminum with a rigid fork and both wheels are city-sized […]
With the ST2 S (which stands for Sport) Stromer took an already amazing looking, technologically advanced, super-fast electric bike that felt cost prohibitive at $7k and said… let’s take it further guys!!! And so, priced at nearly $10k the S model is an ebike I probably wouldn’t be allowed to test ride were it not […]
Compared with the ST1 T, the S (which stands for sport) has a more aggressive geometry due to its flat bars vs. the low-rise bars, it has thinner ergonomic grips and no extra racks. The two models are very similar electric bikes and aside from color differences, could be easy to confuse. Both deliver impressive […]
Compared with the ST1 S, the T (which stands for touring) has a more upright geometry due to low-riser bars vs. the flat bars, it has thicker ergonomic grips and an integrated Racktime carry rack at the rear. The two are very similar electric bikes and aside from color differences, could be easy to confuse. […]
The E3 ProTour is one of the coolest looking ebikes in the entire 2016 lineup from IZIP because the battery is integrated, the circular motor hides behind the chainring and you get every sort of accessory you could ever want to make it the perfect commuting platform. From integrated LED lights that run off the […]
The Raleigh Sprint iE is one of the sleekest, most unassuming electric bikes in the lineup for 2016 because the battery is integrated directly into the downtube and the motor is compact and circular… mirroring the chainring sprocket. It’s fast, capable of hitting 28 mph in the highest level of assist when pedaling with the […]
The 2016 IZIP E3 Dash features a high torque mid-drive motor while the previous two iterations used gearless direct drive hub motors. This improves balance and frame stiffness while making quick-release on both wheels possible (and easier). You get thru-axles for improved stiffness (12 mm rear and 15 mm front) and hydraulic Shimano disc brakes […]
The Route iE is a speed pedelec that’s setup for comfortable performance… it would make a great commuter platform or urban/city ebike because it can hit ~28 mph in pedal assist mode and offers braze-ons for adding fenders and a rear rack. The motor is powerful, offering 73 Newton meters of torque but it’s not […]
In case you’re comparing the Misceo iE to the Misceo Sport iE (which costs ~$100 less) I’ve identified the following differences… The Sport model is about one pound heavier, does not come in the extra large size of 21″ (just 5″, 17″ and 19″), includes SKS fenders, an aluminum alloy rack with 18 kg weight […]
