350W hub motor

Aventon Abound LR
Class 3 25mph w/ 750w motor
Can be class 2 depending on the state when you set up the app
20” x 3” tires
Rear rack supports up to 150lb, versatile options such as seat for up to two children or one adult
Front rack can support even more
Anti-theft, 4G, GPS tracking, alarm, geofencing, and startup password
Range up to 60 miles

Honestly, a very smooth ride. Specs only go so far, but this is genuinely very comfortable

Aventon app has Ride Tune which lets you customize torque, assistance, and response
Kickstand is integrated and automatically puts the bike in park & locks it
Tons and tons of options for this bike, with mounting points everywhere


Mokwheel Basalt
There are some mid drives that can handle steeper mountains if necessary
Has an inverter, compatible with solar panels, lots of accessories
Fat tires and smooth suspension
Comes with a free trailer
Class 3 28MPH
Torque or Cadence sensor
400Lb payload capacity

Lectric XP 4.0
Again, not only is this a great folding bike, it’s also way more affordable than most
$999
Considering this has a nice display, a range of up to 85 miles, lots of power, and is only 999, this is hands down the best value. I believe the Lectric 3.0 was the best selling ebike in america

BLINKERS

What is it like to ride?

Ride1UP Prodigy V2
Feels like you are lance armstrong. Middrive motors still give you all the feeling of a bike ride. Maybe this is your exercise, but you just can’t keep up with someone, or maybe the hills are a bit too much these days.

Brose middrive, German made with 90n.m

*explain middrives*

Class 3, up to 28mph with pedal assistance only

30-50 mile range

About half the price of other middrive bikes from big brands.

High quality and very affordable

Velotric Summit 1
Looks awesome
Fast, smooth, versatile with cadence or torque sensor
Class 3, 28MPH but I have been getting up to 30 or 31 even with just throttle
IPX7 waterproof battery
70 miles of range
120mm suspension with kenda tires and shinamo hydraulic disc brakes
