Electra Vale Go! 9D EQ Review

Apr 2020

Price: $3299.00 | Model Year: 2020 | A feature complete hybrid electric bicycle with cruiser-inspired geometry and style. Large paint-matched aluminum alloy fenders keep you dry, minimalist rear rack for pannier bags offer utility, and integrated Spanninga lights and reflective tires improve safety

Observations
  • A feature complete hybrid electric bicycle with cruiser-inspired geometry and style. Large paint-matched aluminum alloy fenders keep you dry, minimalist rear rack for pannier bags offer utility, and integrated Spanninga lights and reflective tires improve safety

  • Bosch Kiox color LCD display is awesome because it's removable, has Bluetooth integration for smartphones and heart rate monitors, and offers Micro-USB charging port with 5V 1A output for portable electronics accessories. Dynamic range estimation readouts and battery percentage offer peace of mind on longer rides

  • Vast network of dealers for test rides, six color choices (including several gender-neutral options), and name-brand components make this a trustworthy choice. The price is higher, but the service and comprehensive two-year warranty is great. Hydraulic disc brakes, puncture protected tires, fast charger, and great kickstand choice

  • Only available in one frame size and step-thru frame style. I feel that the bottle cage positioning could be higher to make it easier to reach and open up the stand-over space. High-volume Schwalbe tires and suspension seat post offer a bit of comfort, but the firm saddle, forward handlebar position, and all-aluminum frame can be a little jarring compared to other Electra models... it's a bit sportier. Charge port position and key position could be improved, key must be inserted and twisted to re-connect battery to frame
