Electra Townie Path Go! 10D EQ Review

Apr 2020

Price: $3699.00 | Model Year: 2020 | A premium cruiser style ebike that comes feature complete with paint-matched aluminum alloy fenders to keep you dry, sturdy rear rack for transporting gear or a child seat, top-of-the-line integrated Supernova lights (front and rear), key-alike ABUS frame lock for convenient secure stops, and puncture-resistant reflective tires to reduce flats and keep you visible to cars

Observations
  • A premium cruiser style ebike that comes feature complete with paint-matched aluminum alloy fenders to keep you dry, sturdy rear rack for transporting gear or a child seat, top-of-the-line integrated Supernova lights (front and rear), key-alike ABUS frame lock for convenient secure stops, and puncture-resistant reflective tires to reduce flats and keep you visible to cars

  • Bosch SmartphoneHub is extremely versatile and unique. It works on its own as a simple display with assist level, speed, range estimate, and battery percentage but can also charge an Android or iOS phone while using it as a much larger advanced display for ebike settings, music, or GPS with narrated turn-by-turn directions!

  • Vast network of Trek/Electra dealers can provide test rides and post-purchase support, many color choices (including several gender-neutral options), name-brand component including Bosch drive system and Shimano hydraulic disc brakes, offered in S/M step-thru and M/L high-step frames.

  • High-volume Schwalbe tires and comfort saddle with elastomer bumpers offer decent comfort, but the all-aluminum frame can still be a little jarring compared to products with suspension. Very high price compared to off-brand competitors, no throttle options, the steel chain cover can get scratched and rust over time, stem not compatible with Bontrager Blendr accessories
