ebikes

Last week, we met Yamaha’s first dual-suspension ebikes, the innovative and slick-looking YDX-Moro and Moro Pro. Now we’ve got full details on the componentry and prices for these 500-watt, trail-hungry beasts.

Yamaha has built its first full suspension ebike, and it looks like a beauty. The YDX-Moro and Moro Pro feature the world's first bicycle frame with split top and down tubes, as well as an angle sensor to allow next-level automatic riding.

Ah, balance bikes. An early introduction to cycling that can give a kid a bit of confidence on two wheels before introducing the complication of pedals. Mondraker has stuck a 250-W motor on one, accidentally inventing the motorcycle.

Well, here's one of the weirdest and wackiest ebikes we've ever seen. Germany's Hase Bikes has reinvented its Pino semi-recumbent tandem cargo ebike to offer a massive adjustment range, allowing riders from tall to small to hop on the front and go.

The Ukraine's Delfast – the company behind record-holding Prime ebike and the special edition Top Cop – has shared early details of a powerful upcoming electric all-terrain fat bike called the Fusion.

Peugeot has released a bunch of new electric crossovers, but they're not SUVs. The Crossover ebikes are built for road and trail, feature Bosch motors, per charge battery range of 110 km, grippy thick tires, and either front or full suspension.

Ducati has launched a new Scrambler, but it's not a motorbike. The Italian manufacturer has joined forces with Thok E-bikes for the e-Scrambler, an "urban ready" ebike that's equally at home on city streets and open country roads.

High-end German bicycle manufacturer Canyon has released this sleek electric gravel bike, complete with an interesting double-decker handlebar setup designed to give riders a wide range of riding positions.

One of the most interesting and exciting segments of the emerging ebike market is the rapidly blurring border between ebikes and mopeds, and the Hyperscorpion is decked out with a very motorcycle-like feature list. It wants to replace your car.

Converting an existing bicycle into an ebike has never been as easy as this. The Unlimited Ebike Conversion Kit, which installs in minutes, comes with a replacement front wheel (with tire), a screw-on battery system, and a wireless pedal sensor.

Yamaha Bicycles has impressive form in the world of ebikes, having launched the world's first electric power-assisted bike back in 1993. Now the company is launching its first Class 3 category ebike in the shape of the Civante.

One of the occasional joys of electric vehicle ownership is that a factory software update can suddenly make your motor go harder – and certain Bosch-powered ebike owners are about to get an extra helping of torque, free of charge.
