Pedal-assisted

Priority Bicycles has announced the launch of its "most advanced ebike to date." The Skyline combines a 750-W torque-sensing hub motor, Gates Carbon belt drive and 12-speed Pinion smart shifting for clean, quiet and low-maintenance city riding.

Heybike has announced a pair of flagship fat-tire folding ebikes as the first models in its X Series. But being a budget e-mobility brand, both the Mars 3.0 and Ranger 3.0 models roll into the city and beyond carrying surprisingly low price tags.

Though ebikes can be a great way to get around town without getting out of puff, they're not suitable for every rider. Some folks benefit from an extra wheel, lower assist speeds and extra comfort. Velotric's Triker ticks all those boxes and more.

San Diego's Ride1Up has tapped German engineering excellence for what's described as the brand's first fully trail-equipped Class 3 electric mountain bike. The TrailRush has been designed for long-range touring and light cross-country adventuring.

Chain-drive ebikes can be a little too high maintenance for some, and reward you with oily clothes for your trouble. But a belt-drive easy life generally comes with a high ticket price. That's not the case with the Glide from Priority Bicycles.

California's Aventon began its fat-tire Aventure journey in 2021, relying on Bafang hub motors to power the ride. Now the company has gone in-house for the new M model, a mid-drive wilderness wanderer that gives riders enough torque to conquer.

Even though I'm a regular ebiker, as I get older I'm tempted by the stability and ease that e-trikes offer. But they're often quite a hefty financial investment. The Cerana T2 mid-motor model most definitely rides in the budget-friendly bike lane.

We've featured a number of cargo ebikes that are pitched as family car alternatives. We've also covered a bunch of velomobiles over the years. The ZET pedal-assist quadricycle combines the best of both for a family hauler, minivan or personal cruiser.

Budget e-mobility brand Heybike announced the new Galaxy series of ebikes recently, which is made up of five models designed to cover all the bases, and built around its own mid-drive motor system.

A couple of years ago, Arizona's Lectric built on its success in the low-cost ebike space by launching a model geared towards folks looking for more stability. Now the XP Trike has been updated with a more powerful motor and a bigger battery.

When you feel like wandering in the wilderness – or just through the cobbled streets of old town – and need a capable Bosch-powered ride to fuel your adventure, Orbea has a premium all-terrain solution in its new Muga urban ebike.

Germany's Hase Bikes has tapped Bosch power to ride on an updated version of its longest-running model, the Kettwiesel. This makes 100 Nm of torque available and can amplify pedal effort by as much as 400%.
