You don’t have to be an athlete to enjoy the benefits of an electric bike (e-bike). Electric bikes are the new trend in cycling, and they are more accessible and easier to ride than ever. With a throttle twist, an electric bike can take you speedily up a hill or across town without any physical exertion. Electric bikes come in all different shapes, sizes, and colors. Here we will talk about five amazing electric bikes:
1. Urban Arrow Family
The Urban Arrow Family is a 3-speed, step-through model (26″ wheels) with a child carrier and attachment for a child seat. Its design is super clean and simple. The low frame has been optimized, making it easier to mount while also absorbing some of the shocks from bumps in the road. The SPEED HUB® 500 internal gear hub provides a powerful gear system with a high-quality finish thanks to its mixed races and sealed bearings. The e-bike can also be customized with accessories to adapt perfectly to the needs of a family. The high-end model has Shimano Alfine 11 internal hub gears and front and rear fenders. This e-bike is priced at around $2400 USD.
2. Aventon Aventure
Did you know you can get an Aventon Aventure for only $1499 USD? This e-bike is a sleek, mid-sized electric mobility bike with an electric assist motor that allows you to pedal with up to 25% less effort and a top speed of 29mph. It can also sustain speeds up to 28mph for about 40 minutes.
3. Biktrix Stunner X
The Biktrix Stunner X’s frame is made from aluminum and has a suspension system that contains an internal gear linkage. Additionally, the e-bike’s seat height is slightly lower than most other bikes, at only 14 inches. It also features a standard-sized 8-inch pneumatic tire, which will work well with any surface and absorb most of the shocks you receive when pedaling down bumpy roads. The bike also has disc brakes and a handlebar called the Biktrix Adjustable Reach Bar. The front of the bike has an old-school BMX-style fork made from steel which will also help absorb vibrations. This e-bike typically sells for $2500 USD.
4. Swft Volt
The Swft Volt bicycle retails for USD $1000 and includes accessories, such as a basket and lights, at an additional USD $500. This e-bike’s integrated battery can last up to 40 miles and is charged via a standard USB charge port that is built into the handlebars. The e-bike also takes advantage of its solar panels, which can harvest enough energy to charge about 5% of the battery within 15 minutes. The Swft Volt bicycle is sleek and streamlined, and it can be folded up to 3 inches deep and 26 inches wide.
