Unbiased, In-Depth Analysis of the Best Electric Bikes
These electric bikes come standard with fenders, a rear rack or pannier hangers, and lights. They are full sized models only, no folders.
The A2B Galvani is a high-step only commuter style electric bike that delivers premium accessories at a mid-level price point. If you’re a shorter rider or someone who prefers the low-step design then consider the A2B Ferber which is basically the same build. Both of these ebikes deliver efficient motor systems and chic design features […]
The e-Joe Anggun 3.0 is an entry level “all around” electric bike that could be useful for commuting, going to school or just doing some relaxed neighborhood cruising. It’s extremely versatile thanks to the fenders, rear rack and LED lights but goes even further in the utility direction with a nice chain guard, adjustable stem […]
The Ferber is new A2B electric bike model for 2015 that comes at a more affordable price point but still delivers quality components, efficient motor systems and chic design features that the company is known for. A2B has been a pioneer in the American electric bike space since 2008 when it launched the iconic A2B […]
The Grace MX II Urban combines the balance and efficiency of the Bosch Gen2 Centerdrive with the cleanliness and silent operation of the Gates carbon belt drive and the smooth anytime-shifting of the NuVinci continuously variable transmission (CVT). It’s a beautiful electric bike available in two frame sizes and multiple configurations including a solid fork […]
The ST2 is a third generation electric bike from the Swiss brand Stromer that has been around since 2009; the bike is distributed globally. It maintains the quality, style and speed performance of the older ST1 Platinum but adds bluetooth connectivity for an app which allows riders to “tune” settings and activate anti-theft features including […]
The iGo metro is a value priced urban cruiser that offers a comfortable ride, beautiful aesthetic and high quality components. I was very impressed with the design which resembles the Pedego City Commuter but costs much less. It’s available in a high-step and low-step frame configuration with 18″ and 16.5″ sizes respectively to fit a […]
The Aventura X30 is a commuter style electric bike that’s built for “adventure” and long range riding. For touring this bike would be excellent because it includes just about every accessory and add on you could want (aside from a bar-end mirror) and has a near-silent motor. The battery pack uses high density Lithium-ion cells […]
The Kalkhoff Agattue Premium Impulse 8 is a top of the line city style electric bike that would be excellent for long commutes thanks to its enormous battery pack and efficient mid-drive design. It leverages the Impulse II drive system that is smoother, quieter and smarter than the original Impulse used on earlier models. While […]
There are only a handfull of electric bikes specifically designed for petite riders. The Pedego 24″ Cruiser comes to mind but doesn’t offer the same mid-drive setup seen here. The Banff is a beautifully accessorized city style cruiser that comes complete with front and rear racks, whicker baskets, fenders, lights and a unique center-drive that […]
The Evelo Aurora is a value driven mid-drive electric bike which means it benefits from the strengths of centerdrive (improved climbing ability, balance and range) but suffers from a couple of technical issues (slower pedal cadence and rougher shifting). These issues can be be addressed if you’re willing to pay a bit extra for the […]
