The following review was created by Mikey from Blue Monkey Bicycles in Salt Lake City Utah. Normally, Court Rye does the reviews here (he’s the guy that owns and created EBR) but Mikey is a friend, he’s knowledgeable, and he had the bike on hand! Mikey was paid $200 by ElectricBikeReview.com for his efforts filming, […]
Felt Tote’M Review
Magnum Metro Review
The Magnum Metro electric bike is essentially a souped up Magnum Ui5… It comes with 180 mm hydraulic disc brakes vs. mechanical, a 500 watt nominal motor vs. 350 watt, a 48 volt battery vs. 36 volt and a nicer drivetrain (gears, derailleur, and shifter). For just $300 more dollars, you get a boost in […]
BULLS CROSS E Review
Depending on your frame of reference, $2,800 may not sound like a bargain price, but considering the Bosch motor, upgraded 500 watt hour battery pack, advanced Intuvia display panel, and the many frame size and style options that this bike offers… I think it’s an incredible value. The Bulls Cross E is a city style […]
OHM Urban Review
OHM is a Premiere BionX partner from Vancouver Canada that has been in the ebike business since 2005, using BionX electric drive systems exclusively during that time. I have reviewed eight of their prior year models here on EBR and always come away feeling impressed. In a world where fancy mid-drive systems are generating attention […]
CUBE Reaction Hybrid HPA SL 500 Review
The CUBE Reaction Hybrid HPA SL 500 is a hardtail electric trail bike that seems uniquely well suited to urban environments. With a 100 mm travel air suspension fork from RockShox, offering remote lockout, you’re not going to experience efficiency loss from bobbing or sluggish steering from a steep head tube angle as you would […]
2017 CERO One Review
Apparently in Japan there’s a type of bicycle called the Mamachari or “mom bike” that’s easy to approach, with a low stand over height, and very useful, because of its front and rear rack provisions. These bicycles are frequently used to transport children and goods around town and they inspired Kiyoshi Iwai, a Japanese transplant […]
Electra Townie Commute Go! 8i Review
The original Townie Go! has become one of the most popular mainstream electric bikes to hit the market since it first launched in 2012. Since that time, Electra has upgraded the motor from Bosch Active Cruise to Bosch Performance Cruise (going from 50 Nm to ~60 Newton meters of torque), adding color options, and refining […]
Trek Neko+ Review
I reviewed the Trek Neko+ in Colorado with the help of a Trek rep named Stephanie Jones. We chatted about this model and the companion Trek Dual Sport+ and she referred to it as a “Colorado commuter” because it’s capable on road and light trail conditions. Howeso you might wonder? Well, the wheels are large […]
Riese & Müller Nevo NuVinci Review
Riese & Müller makes some of the cleanest, sturdiest, and most comfortable electric bikes I have reviewed to date. They’re a German company with a rich history of designing and producing traditional bicycles but recently, transitioned almost completely to e-bikes. And all of their models use the trusted and highly efficient Bosch drive system and […]
BULLS E-STREAM EVO FS 2 27.5 Plus Review
Bulls offers an extensive line of electric mountain bikes and the E-Stream EVO FS 2 27.5 Plus is their cross country model with 120 mm air suspension from SR Suntour. Actually, to me this is something of a cross country / trail hybrid because I’m used to seeing 80 to 100 mm travel for pure […]
