Pedal-assisted

Denmark's Strøm Bikes has returned to crowdfunding platform Indiegogo for an update to its City ebike, which can be optioned with an extended-range battery, color display and a cargo system with click-to-lock baskets.

Harley-Davidson officially entered the ebike space back in October 2020 via a new spin-out company called Serial 1. The first three premium models followed in November, and now Serial 1 has announced its second generation ebikes are ready to ride.

Blix has added a versatile fat-tire all-terrain ebike called the Ultra to its product lineup, which can be switched between Class 2 and 3 modes, offers pedal assist up to 28 mph and can be had with dual batteries for up to 80 miles of range.

Mokumono was founded by twins Bob and Tom Schiller with a focus on producing ebikes using only European-sourced parts. With the Polder, the design team has almost got there – the new ebike is built in Amsterdam and made up of 90% European components.

Ariel Rider has added a powerful new fat tire commuter model to its lineup that's designed to convince folks to leave the car at home and ebike to work. And with up to 1,800 W of motor power on tap and a large battery, riders can power off road too.

For some urban deliveries, a conventional cargo bike is all that's needed. In cases where a bit more of a vehicle is required, however, the modular-loading pedal-electric ONO may be just the way to go.

For riders who prefer to add motor assist to a regular bike when it's needed and do without when it's not, ebike conversion kits like the one from Swytch can be a handy solution. Now the design has been updated to include a pocket-friendly battery.

Propella has just unveiled its latest and most versatile ebike. Designed for daily commutes and moderate off-roading, the 9S Pro features a 350-W hub motor and offers up to 45 miles of per-charge assisted riding on city streets and beyond.

Earlier in the week, electric mobility company Arcimoto officially revealed the D1 driverless delivery vehicle developed in collaboration with Faction Technology. Now a pedal-powered tilting e-trike has been added to the reveal roster.

California's Aventon Bikes has launched a step-through version of its Sinch fat-tire folding ebike, which offers more versatile riding on or off road for up 40 miles on a single charge, and comes with pedal assist and thumb throttle.

When you first see the Z-Triton 2.0 you may find yourself wondering whether this strange-looking vehicle is a boat, a trike, or some kind of micro-shelter – and it's a yes to all three. Pre-orders are now open, prices start at around €14,500.

The ebike arm of CSC Motorcycles has followed last year's launch of a fat-tired electric roller powered by a 750-W rear-hub motor with a more powerful model rocking a 1,000-W mid-drive Bafang and offering up to 75 miles of range.
