A sporty, responsive, and well-equipped commuter with a semi-automatic, low-maintenance drivetrain and an approachable price. Lifestyle e-bikes can generally be lumped into three categories by their specs and components: entry-level, mid-tier, and premium. Bikes in each category typically have a significant amount of overlap, and it’s relatively uncommon for them to offer features found in
Its premium features come at an approachable price! The Skyline’s MSRP of $4k makes it one of the lowest-priced e-bikes on the market with its high-end transmission.
The 12-speed Pinion gearbox offers electronic and semi-automatic shifting. It’s also incredibly convenient and low-maintenance.
We thoroughly enjoyed the bike’s handling. Its wide 740mm handlebars and 27.5×2” tires provide precision and agility.
It performed well across the board in our testing, with scores that matched or exceeded the average for similar commuters.
Its fit is both precise and customizable, with three frame sizes and an adjustable stem for riders between 5’4” and 6’3”.
The Skyline’s sporty riding position matches its speedy and responsive nature. Think of it like the e-bike equivalent of an executive sedan.
It’s decked out with reliable, name-brand parts from front to back. This means solid performance and easy parts replacement when needed.
There is a short delay when engaging the throttle while stopped; faster power delivery would be more user friendly.
When in Class 3 mode, PAS 1-4 are capped at 23 mph. We’d prefer a 28 mph limit in all assist levels.
