Electric bike holiday gift guide
Electric bikes were the hottest transportation trend of
2021, and there’s no sign of that slowing down in 2022.
They make getting to work easier, exploring the outdoors
more accessible and fun, and, of course, they help you
skip getting into your car for the easy errand to get
eggnog.To get more news about
electric
motorcycle, you can visit davincimotor.com official
website.
To start off, there are countless styles of e-bikes out
there including: mopeds and motobikes, commuters, as well
as on-road and off-road models. On top of that, there are
hundreds of different brands on the market, which means
it can be a bit overwhelming to start the shopping
process. Plus, there are a lot of important specs to keep
track of. There’s motor output, battery specs, charge
times, frame sizing, range, weight, price and of course,
cool factor to try to figure out. And for all of you
dying to jump on this bandwagon, I’ve created a list of
my favorite electric bikes to date. In the list, I’ve
included many different styles of bikes, including the
models I think are best in their given segment.
This motorbike-style model is unlike most other e-bikes
out there in that it features two batteries and two
motors! One 52V, 20 Ah battery lives between the rider’s
feet and another 52V, 15 Ah battery resides underneath
the seat. As for motivation, the Grizzly has a pair of
1,000-watt hub motors, one in each wheel. Combined, all
this yields a serious performance punch. Along with the
ability to accelerate to 36 mph and an estimated range of
35 to 75 miles (depending on conditions and speed), this
thing has the grunt to get up most any dirt hill. It’s
guaranteed to give you a smile from ear to ear. Oh, I
forgot to mention, this thing will peel out — that front
tire will actually spin if you slam the throttle. This
bear growls!
What I like most about the Ariel Rider Grizzly is you
don’t have to be riding with both batteries at once. If
you’re out and about and one battery goes to empty, you
still have the second battery to get you home. The bike
is a tiny bit slower with one battery in use, but it’s
great to have the backup pack if you have lots of errands
to run.
A few notes here before you push Ariel’s “Add to Cart”
button. This motorbike-style frame is a bit smaller than
your average bike, so if you’re taller than 6 feet, 8
inches, it’s not going to be a comfortable ride. Also,
the Ariel rider weighs a stout 105 pounds, so if you have
a second-story walkup apartment, this bike might not be
for you. (Then again, maybe you can ride up those stairs?
On second thought, no — don’t try that!)
The Grizzly is priced extremely well given all of its
features, especially compared to models like the
extremely popular Super73 RX. The Grizzly retails for
$3,299, all while checking way more boxes than the RX. If
you decide on the Grizzly, I’d be sure to buy the Long
Seat so you can take someone on your next adventure.
It’s the one thing that I wish I had.
The LeMond Prolog is one of the best-looking electric
bikes on the road (even in Rosa matte-pink!). This road-
style e-bike was designed by three-time Tour de France
champion Greg Lemond, so you know it comes with some
great, progressive features.
First off, this bike is made primarily of carbon fiber,
including the frame, fork, monocoque handlebar-stem,
custom fenders and seat post. In fact, you can even opt
for a carbon-braided wheelset with Tune hubs as an
upgrade. With all that, you get a bike that only weighs
26 pounds! You should easily be able to make it up into
your second-story apartment with this bike. Next up, the
Prolog has a range of 45 miles, thanks to its 36V, 250W
Panasonic battery and Mahle M1 250w rear hub motor.
That’s plenty of range to get you to and from work with
some hills in between. The Prolog is a Class 1 e-bike,
which means it’ll assist the rider while pedaling to up
to 20 mph. Lastly, the bike also comes with an 11-speed
Shimano drivetrain if you need help with those hills.
Shimano’s Di2 electronic shifter is available as an
upgrade, but ultimately, I would skip this option because
I have yet to trust an electronic shifting system.
