If part of your trip to and from the office involves popping on a train or bus, a folding ebike can help make the remainder of the commute a lot less sweaty than a motorless ride. The C1 from startup Wowcat aims to get you there in style too.

Nireeka is back with another eye-popping (yet impressively affordable) carbon-framed ebike. The Revenant is a 1,000-W, dual-suspension, ABS-equipped commuter/mountain bike designed to replace the popular Homie, with added speed, range and refinement.

If you were pedaling over rough terrain while carrying a big load, you'd probably appreciate the stability of three wheels. The BiTrike was designed with such considerations in mind, as it features front and rear suspension, plus it tilts into turns.

Some mountain bikers enjoy listening to music via a Bluetooth speaker while they ride, but others … well, they just hate the racket. The stem-mounted Cricket Speaker is designed to serve as a compromise, by keeping the sound near the rider's head.

A commuting by ebike that involves hopping on and off trains or buses during the journey can be a whole lot easier if you can fold your ride. Ossby has introduced what's sure to be an attention-grabbing pedal-assist ride that does so in a second.

Premium bike maker Cannondale has launched its lightest ebike to date. The Compact Neo comes with a torque-sensing hub drive and enough frame-integrated battery for nearly 50 miles of urban riding, plus there's a rack out back for hauling gear.

In theory, replacing the family car with an ebike for some journeys could be an attractive option, but the price of entry is often very high. Lectric eBikes aims to provide affordable quality, and such is the case with its flagship XP 3.0 model.
