Unbiased, In-Depth Analysis of the Best Electric Bikes
Retrospec has built a real identity for itself in the ebike space, and it is not by trying to out-spec the competition. Their lane is great looking, affordable bikes with a focus on comfort and style, and nobody does that better in the electric beach cruiser category. The classic car inspired lines, the glossy paint, […]
Retrospec has been in the bike game for over 15 years now, starting with stylish, affordable bikes to get students across campus and for the last half a decade they have been making e-bikes to join their success.

Aventon dropped the Level 3 just about a year ago and it landed well. Good torque sensor, solid security tech, reasonable range, it checked most of the boxes for a commuter under two grand. But anyone who rode it regularly knew the hub motor was the one thing holding it back from being a truly […]
While the DTC e-bike market has largely followed a predictable path, good little ants marching single file, each one following the one in front of it, Aventon has quietly carved its own lane and quickly become a genuine force in the industry. The release of the Aventon Current, a true eMTB, earned them all sorts […]
It seems the ‘comfort’ cruiser segment in e-bikes is having a bit of a moment in 2026.

It’s the third iteration of Velotric’s most popular model, and this […]
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 […]
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 […]
