I was slumming it on Twitter today when I came across the following post: Say it isn’t so I started to really think about this chart and started to think about if I agreed with his theory that adding an electric motor on a bike increased the overall load on the bike by 708%. Since most of my time in the last 8 years has been spent repairing destroy
Today we’re talking about something near and dear to our hearts: saving cold hard cash. Specifically, how the US Postal Service can save a ton of money by switching from 40 year old Grumman LLV death traps to e-bikes. Now, I know what you’re thinking, “The Postal Service is a government entity, they don’t care about saving money.” Well, you’d be su
There are so many competitive e-bikes in the $1500-$2000 price range, it can be hard to build a bike that stands out from the competition. With the LMT’D, Ride1UP made an e-bike with a set of priorities different from what we see with the average commuter or city e-bike. What we will explore in our […] The post Ride1UP LMTD Review, 2023 first appea
This week’s news shows the great variety out there in the e-bike world; we are concentrating on new launches in this issue and have Cannondale’s lightest e-bike yet, a small cargo bike with a rear hub motor, a slighter larger but still very manageable one with a powerful Bosch mid-drive, an all-wheel model from a […] The post E-bike News: VanMoof b
For the last 3 years I have really enjoyed riding my Ludicrous enabled Luna X-1 Full suspension ebike. After much use and abuse the rear freehub finally blew out. This is a common problem on higher power mid drive ebikes, but one that is easily remedied by relacing the rear wheel with a DT Swiss rear hub which uses a fantastic steel ratcheting syst
The original Aventure raised the bar for affordable e-bikes. The Aventure 2 delivers an even better ride experience to what was already a top e-bike option. When it debuted back in 2021, the Aventon Aventure set a new standard for what e-bikers could expect from a fat tire electric bike under $2000. Heck, you don’t […] The post Aventon Aventure 2 F
Ride1Up, the maker of some excellent e-bikes like the Cafe Cruiser and the Prodigy, has introduced a new e-bike called the Revv 1. That’s rev as in revving an engine. The Revv 1 is an example of the growing segment of e-bikes styled after motorcycles and mopeds. E-bikes styled after motorcycles and mopeds are growing […] The post Ride1UP Revv 1 Rev
This week’s news has a very cosmopolitan flavour; whilst the fat-tired, keenly-priced new offerings from Ride1Up and Aventon are pretty much meat and drink for this website, we only occasionally cover e-bikes not available in the US or UK. So this issue feels like a mini-departure with news of what might be the start of […] The post E-bike News: Ri
Amidst the boom in e-bike sales, riders are increasingly seeking a lightweight commuter bike that handles like a regular commuter bike, and gives them at least 30 miles of power assist. Responding to their demands, U.S. e-bike giant Pedego sent us the new Pedego Avenue to review. With its lightweight frame, sleek design, and proven […] The post Ped
EBR usually concentrates on e-bike launches and products that are already out there or at least very likely to be launched and in production over the next few months. You may not see a SRAM branded e-bike drive system any time soon but the seeming likelihood of them entering the market is this week’s lead […] The post E-bike News: SRAM look to ente
The electric trike market is heating up with the announcement that Lectric eBikes is introducing a trike of their own, the XP Trike. We don’t have a lot of details just yet, but we do have enough details for a first look review of the Lectric XP Trike that will no doubt alter the electric […] The post Lectric XP Trike Review first appeared on Elect
Exactly what does innovation mean when it comes to ebikes? That’s a question this week’s news seems to be asking. We start by looking at the touted advantages of magnesium frames and move onto a really powerful looking yet lightweight retrofit kit before a final look at a new lightweight hub motor. So, whilst none […] The post E-bike News: Heybike
