The Motiv Shadow is designed for pedaling and offers plenty of speed and efficiency with its narrower tires and 700c aero rims. However, it’s not exactly a road bike considering the softer seat, semi-upright seating position and rack and fender mounts. I’d call it a comfort urban commuter electric bike with great style. Like the […]
Motiv Shadow Review
Yuba elMundo Review
The Mundo has been a popular cargo bike for many years and Yuba is known for their wide range of accessories. They innovate quickly and get new products and features to market before competitors like Xtracycle but this has caused a few issues. The El Mundo stands for “electric” Mundo and this was the first […]
2014 Motiv Spark Review
The Motiv Spark is a classic cruiser style electric bike designed for relaxed, comfortable rides. I’ve always appreciated the more upright position this style of bike offers but pedaling isn’t always a joy. They tend to be heavier and lack gear range for climbing but the Spark only shines in these areas. It’s relatively light […]
2014 Motiv Sleek Review
The Motiv Sleek is a step-through cruiser with a smaller frame size that’s comfortable to ride and available in a myriad of color choices with custom frame, rim, tire and seat color choices.

OHM XU450 E2 Review
OHM is known for producing high quality bikes that look beautiful and are simple to use. The XU450 leverages the SRAM EMATIC drive system (motor, battery and controller) that do a good job but offer a bit less power than some other kits. While all of the weight from this system is positioned towards the […]
Flight ECB-26L-A Review
The Flight line of electric bikes offer entry level performance with a few upgrades to keep them sleek at a mid-level price. The ECB-26-L features a Shimano Nexus 8 speed internally geared hub that lets you shift at standstill and keep the chain tight and your pants clean. It also balances well with the small […]
Optibike SIMBB 29C Review
The Optibike SIMBB system is simply amazing. It stands for “super integrated motorized bottom bracket” and that’s because inside its sealed aluminum case is a 600 watt motor, 37 volt battery and control system. That’s everything you need to go upwards of 30 miles distance at nearly 30 miles per hour! The 29C model is […]
