The Defender is purpose built for RV owners! It features an electronic anti-theft device with a loud alarm, is fully rust-proof and highly water resistant, and it's a very versatile e-bike that will perform well in just about any riding situation. Tackle off-road trails with the large (but still nimble) tires and suspension fork. Run errands in town with a rear rack, fenders, and integrated lighting. With an upgraded pedaling drivetrain and responsive torque sensor, the Defender is a ton of fun to ride and it's also adjustable to fit a fairly wide range of rider sizes.
The Hiboy ECOM 14 is a utility scooter, offering both seated and standing riding modes although seated is definitely the primary focus. Unlike most scooters it actually has a rear rack and basket for carrying cargo! The 450 watt hub motor has decent torque for hill climbing and can get you up to a top speed of 22 mph (35 km/h), but it's also very loud which isn't pleasant to listen to on long rides. It's highly adjustable and should fit a wide range of riders, plus it folds down for storage. It's not very portable; even in the folded position it's still difficult to carry, mostly because it weighs 57 pounds (26 kg). This scoot is definitely designed for city streets and would struggle on rough terrain due to the lack of suspension and very low deck clearance.
Varla's popular Eagle One scooter is back and better than ever with version 2.0! It's marketed as a "powerful off-road scooter" and it certainly is powerful, rocking two 1,000 watt motors for a combined peak wattage of 3,200 and 76 newton-meters of torque. Suffice to say, this scoot is one heck of a hill climber! It does well off-roading too, but I would honestly call this more of a do-anything hybrid scooter; the wheels are only 10" in diameter, so even with good suspension (which it has) off-road riding is still a bit jarring. The Eagle One V2.0 actually excels on city streets, with enough acceleration to keep pace with traffic easily, a high deck for good visibility, and an excellent loadout of lights.
The Turris has a lot of quality components that offer great value for money, especially considering the recent price drop to just $1,095 USD. This Class 3 is dubbed as an "adventure e-bike", making it a great fit for people who do a blend of city riding and off-road adventuring. With a powerful 750-watt rear hub motor and an upgraded Altus pedaling drivetrain, it's easy to reach the max speed of 28mph, and - unlike many similarly priced e-bikes - the Turris feels safe and stable while doing so. It's available in both high-step and step-thru frame styles, but can only be bought online as Ride1Up does not have a dealer network.
Yadea is a big name in the electric scooter space and the ElitePrime is a prime (heh) example of why! Durable premium construction, amazingly comfortable polymer shock absorbers, intuitive lighting & signaling systems... there's a lot to love about this scooter, and we haven't even mentioned the impressively zippy motor yet. It is on the pricier side, and some features aren't quite dialed in yet - we're looking at you, buggy Yadea smartphone app - but all things considered this scoot is definitely worth a closer look.
Vintage Vibes Done Right! Weighing in at less than 45 pounds, the aptly-named Ultralight is an electric bike you can carry or load on a standard bike rack with ease, making it a great fit for campers and RVers. With stealthily integrated electronics this classic ride will easily pass for a regular bicycle, meaning you can worry less when locking it up in public places. This is a Class 1 e-bike which means no throttle, but who needs a throttle when you have such a fun-to-ride torque sensor?
The Blaupunkt Henri is rocking a magnesium alloy frame & wheels, which is durable, lightweight, and vibration damping. It folds down small which is great for storage, with a magnetic latch mechanism to keep it locked in the folded position, making it fairly easy to maneuver and roll around while folded. The 350-watt motor is no speed demon but still capable of 20mph speeds using either pedal assist or the half-grip twist throttle. It's priced a bit on the high side... but it does seem to be built very well and should hold up well over time, and it certainly looks beautiful!
The AQ177 Pro Max has the biggest battery I've ever seen on an e-bike... was this monster made in Texas?! The downside of all that juice is a Texas-sized curb weight of 116 pounds... no sir, this electrified bicycle is not for the faint of heart. With a full loadout of commuting accessories, hydraulic brakes, and a suspiciously low price tag of just $1,799, this e-bike is tempting indeed... but how will the quality hold up over time? Dive into the full review to get my take.
