The XU700 is one of OHM’s most popular electric bikes, it’s an urban model designed for speed, efficiency and utility. Compared to older versions, the 16 model offers a rigid stem and customized saddle… I see a lot of entry-level ebikes that are priced lower than the XU700 but don’t deliver the same ride quality […]
OHM Urban XU700 16 Review
OHM Urban XU700 LS 15 Review
OHM is a Canadian electric bike company that started out around 2005. They’ve got two lines emphasizing Urban and Sport or “off road” riding. The XU700 LS is an urban series model that’s perfect for neighborhood or city riding. It’s extremely quiet, easy to operate and efficient. Compared with some of the other urban models […]
Leisger CD5 Review
Leisger is a german electric bike company that is expanding to the US with a few models for 2015/2016 including the CD5. This is a “cruiser” style ebike with “downtube” mounted battery that’s a “5th generation” build. That’s what the CD5 stands for and it’s a fairly good overview of the bike. You get a […]
Leisger MD5 Review
Leisger is a german electric bike company that is expanding to the US with a few models for 2015/2016 including the MD5. This is a “mountain” style ebike with “downtube” mounted battery that’s a “5th generation” build. That’s what the MD5 stands for and it’s a fairly good overview of the bike. You get a […]
Green World Bike E-Trolley Review
The e-Trolley is a compact folding electric bike that offers great accessories, a decent drivetrain and two variations for those who are price sensitive. I reviewed the Pro model here which is ~$300 more but was also able to test the Standard and found it to be slightly less powerful, much more difficult to fold […]
Magnum Ui5 Review
Magnum electric bikes are relatively new to the US but they’ve been successful in Israel and parts of Europe for several years. The Ui5 is an “urban” model with “integrated battery” offering “5th generation” technology… It’s one of my favorite ebikes from their line because it looks great, is well suited to city riding or […]
Magnum Mi5 Review
Magnum electric bikes are relatively new to the US but they’ve been successful in Israel and parts of Europe for several years. The Mi5 is an “mountain” model with “integrated battery” offering “5th generation” technology… to call it a true mountain bike is a bit of a stretch in my mind because many of the […]
Vela Model 1 Review
The Vela Model 1 is a crowdfunded electric bicycle that began its life in Brazil and then expanded North into America with an Indiegogo campaign. As of this review, it has not yet reached its US goal of $35k but it’s nearly half way there in only five days time. I’m told that actual production […]
Haibike XDURO Fullseven RX Review
Haibike offers a wide range of performance oriented electric bikes including the Fullseven RX here which is a full suspension 27.5″ model… see where they got that name from? It used to be called the FS RX or FS 27.5″ in 2014 and aside from the name, most of the bike remains unchanged (which isn’t […]
Easy Motion Evo 27.5 Jumper Review
The EVO 27.5 Jumper is one of my favorite electric bike models from Easy Motion because it’s zippy, nimble and comfortable off-road or around town. I used to own the NEO Jumper (from 2013/2014) and am very impressed with the upgrades that were made for the newer model. It’s modest 350 watt hub motor can […]
