We’ve just put a few extra step-through electric bikes on our floor to offer a more complete range for all riders and budgets. The models we have added to our display this week are from XDS and include a model called the E-Conic S2. It’s a stylish retro-looking bike that has a battery integrated into the frame and a small rear hub motor. It looks very “non-electric” and comes in a cute mint colour and a rose gold colour.

The next model also from XDS has been labelled the E-Spresso S2. It has a well integrated battery into the frame but differs from the above model by having a mid-drive motor. The motor is from Bafang – probably the biggest manufacturer of mid-drive motors in the world. Extremely reliable.

Both of these models are extremely well-priced. Ranging from around $1500 – $3000 depending on the day. Please come in and take for a test ride. 33 Adelaide street, Fremantle.

Trek have just released the latest model hardtail electric mountain bike. This is the Generation 4 model of the Powerfly. This is one of the top of the line hardtail electric bikes you can find. It’s running with the Bosch Performance CX line. A new feature that is found on this model and should be seen more commonly on ebikes running the Bosch system is an application that allows you to adjust motor settings and track your riding activity and navigate.

Part of the fun of having an electric bicycle business is developing and trialing new products. We’ve had a few bikes that aren’t worth a mention here but the latest model was rather impressive. This hybrid model uses the Ananda mid-drive motor with Alivio gears and Tektro hydraulic brakes. It is available as a step-over or step-through model. The two defining features of this model are it has a mid-drive torque sensing motor with a throttle and it also has a very high capacity – 36V 20Ah. This is a model for someone wanting a mid-drive hybrid bicycle designed for comfort and who wants to ride a very long way. You could expect around 100km on this bike even riding it near top power level; much further if you were to tune down the power a little.
