One of the most affordable name brand electric bikes on the market right now, priced to compete with online ebikes but offers dealer assembly, fitting, post-purchase support, and comes in two frame styles and seven color options! The step-thru is a small-medium with 26" tires and the high-step is a medium-large with 27.5" tires.
Two gender neutral color options for the step-thru presumably for guys who aren't as tall or have sensitive knees and hips like me. Class 1 ebike with three levels of assist, minimalist buttons are easy to use, limited clutter with internally routed cables, easy to use twist shifter operates the 7-speed Shimano cassette with wide 14-34 tooth freewheel.
Large 180mm mechanical disc brakes provide good stopping power, wide 2.35" tires provide comfort and stability, extra-wide saddle with elastomer bumpers and high-rise handlebar provide an upright body position. Unique "Flat Foot" frame geometry makes it easy to touch the ground when stopped while still providing good leg extension for pedaling.
Excellent weight distribution with downtube mounted battery pack. The battery and motor are so hidden that it hardly looks like an ebike! Lower than average 250wh battery capacity and 250 watt motor pair nicely for an efficient ride and keep the overall weight and price low. Torque and cadence sensing pedal assist feel natural. Fenders, racks, lights, and other accessories all add to the cost. Tires seem kind of basic with no puncture protection.
