2025 Moustache

Xroad 6

A value specced hardtail crossover electric bike that's capable on road, gravel, and light mountain terrain. Sturdy reinforced triple cavity downtube, tubular aluminum alloy fenders, and sleek rear rack hold up well on bumpy terrain and do not produce rattling noise. Integrated lights improve safety and utility, both are viewable from multiple angles.

High attention to detail with all-black hardware including hubs, spokes, and rims. The rear rack appears to be floating, but is actually connected to the frame with a sturdy metal bar hidden by the rear fender. Bottle cage bosses on the seat tube put fluids within reach, basic flick bell included for signaling. Excellent hydraulic disc brakes with larger front rotor offering increased power and cooling.

Streamlined Bosch PowerTube 500 battery pack provides great range, and can be charged on or off the bike. The Performance Line Cruise motor blends power, efficiency, and reduced noise. It offers shift detection, high pedal RPM support, and up to 65 newton meters of torque for capable climbing. Full-coverage plastic chain cover keeps your pants or dress clean.

Basic but user friendly Bosch Intuvia display is not compatible with their smartphone app and does not include USB charging. The bike is available in two frame styles and multiple sizes, but only one color at this level. Good drivetrain with nine gears and a wide 11-36 tooth spread, but entry level derailleur and shifters. Plastic battery cover does not lock to the frame, charging port is in the path of the left crank arm, battery locking design is a bit finicky.
