Which is the Best Electric Bike for Me?

Once you get your hands on one of our electric bikes, we're pretty confident you'll be spending a lot of time on it. 

After all, your bike will help you conquer hills, ride longer, and go farther than you may have thought possible -- regardless of which ebike you choose. 

But we also know that every would-be rider has their own vision of a perfect bike, whether it's one they use to explore the rugged outdoors or one that will help them zip along city streets.

To make sure you're getting the most out of your bike, here's a quick guide to help match the right model with your lifestyle.

Recommendation: 

RadCity 5 Plus

The RadCity lets you get across town like never before. You'll power over hills with ease, and you'll do it in style and comfort with a stock rear rack, fenders, and front suspension. 

The step-thru features a low-step frame design and less distance between you and the handlebars. With all the benefits of the RadCity, in a more approachable package, this is the true comfort cruiser you've been searching for. (Learn More)
