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 XDURO Trekking RX is Haibike at its best. Originally known for producing powerful and sturdy off-road electric bikes like the AMT PRO, this bike is a pioneer in the touring and commuting category. You get nearly every accessory needed to deal with cargo transport, nighttime riding and damp weather conditions. There’s even a little […]
The EZPedaler T500 is a value priced unisex city bike that’s balanced well and feature rich. They made a trade off here putting the hub motor on the front vs. the rear but that allowed the bike to use an internally geared three speed Nexus hub which stays cleaner and can be shifted at rest. […]
The Zurich 350 IX by EG is a stiff and efficient city style electric bike with narrower tires and more traditional forward-leaning frame design that’s easy to mount on racks and convenient for commuting. The fenders, lights and rack match perfectly and even though there aren’t any shock absorbers the front fork is steel which […]
The Shima is one of A2B’s fastest electric bikes offering a 28 mile per hour top speed in pedal assist mode (which has three levels). It uses a higher end TMM4 torque sensor for smooth acceleration and comes stock with front and rear LED lights, fenders, a whole mess of reflectors and a license plate […]
The Kalkhoff Pro Connect S10 resembles the S27 in that it uses a Panasonic drive system with E-Performance. Includes an air suspension fork with lockout, fenders, lights, ergonomic grips and efficient 700C sized wheels. It’s a capable city bike, urban commuter or touring bike given the rear rack design and efficient mid-drive system with pedal […]
The Kalkhoff Pro Connect S27 uses the Panasonic E-Performance mid drive system offering excellent climbing ability and great range. This Euro style electric bike comes with fenders, rear rack and lights powered off the main battery but delivers more power and speed for a US market. While it does not offer a throttle mode, the […]
The OHM Urban XU700 is a top of the line commuter style electric bike that includes everything you’ll need to deal with hills, rain and storage. It includes matching fenders, hiqh quality Wellgo pedals, a Topeak Explorer rack and dynamo powered LED lights – front and rear. I would have liked to demo the bike […]
The Easy Motion Neo City is like a big brother to the Neo Street, offering larger 29″ 700C wheels vs. 26″ on the Street. These serve to elevate the frame, accommodating larger riders, and improve rolling efficiency. While the Street only comes in one size: medium, the City offers medium and large. Apart from that, […]
The Kalkhoff Pro Connect X27 is a twenty-seven speed urban commuter bike designed for active pedaling and distance riding. I say active because the frame style is a bit more aggressive and the saddle is narrow and stiff like a road bike vs. a soft comfort cruiser. That’s not to say this model isn’t comfortable […]
The Kalkhoff Sahel Compact i8 electric bike isn’t exactly a folding bike but it does offer a smaller footprint and lighter overall weight. The pedals fold up and the stem pivots to twist the handle bars in line with the frame, allowing it to squeeze into cars, RV’s, busses or trains more easily. This is […]
