Hi Raphael,
Thanks for pointing that out. We’ve added Giant as a brand to “Where to buy” section, as Giant bikes can be found all around the country basically in every large town across the US. Their bikes and selection are indeed very good. We made this post to diversify the selection and point out some of the best bikes you can order online, without the middleman.
Hey Daryl, I can’t give you any specific advice without knowing the exact model of the battery, but you could try to find a replacement on Amazon or Aliexpress, just make sure that the replacement battery has the same specifications and that it can fit on your rear rack.
Alternatively, you can look for companies in your area that rebuild old batteries, which is a good option if you can’t find a replacement.
There aren’t any that come to my mind in that price range unless it’s on a hefty discount. There are, however, plenty of great electric hardtails in the 3,500 range. You can check out our buying guide on this link.
Glad you like it, Rhonda!
Thanks for the comment! You are right, though a lot of manufacturers sell their bikes as class 3 even though they have a throttle because you can typically disable it to conform to the regulations.
As for the class 4 that we mention, we are simply referring to uncategorized electric bicycles that can do more than 28 mph. Officially, class 4 does not exist, but these e-bikes are often referred to as class 4.
Thanks, Dalton!
Cantilever brakes are definitely very straightforward and easy to maintain. No wonder they had been used for CX racing until recently.
However, from my experience, disc brakes perform really well even in very cold temperatures. Your body will usually start performing worse much sooner than the brakes in such conditions.
The only real concern for me with disc brakes in winter is riding through some very deep snow, in which case snow and ice may build up inside the calipers and around the discs. But few riders do that kind of riding and a few pumps of the brake will usually clear everything out.
Thank you for your comment, John. We will look into it!
Hi Cliff, all Class 2 e-bikes on this list allow you to ride with throttle only, which allows you to utilize all of the engine’s power without pedaling. Also, all seats can be easily changed to more comfortable seats, you can do it in any local bike shop.
I recommend choosing a bike with a low-step frame for ease of mounting and dismounting, such as RadRunner Plus or RadCity 5 Plus on this list. You can also check out our guide on the best e-bikes for seniors where we recommend more such models.
You’re welcome!
Hey Peter, thanks for the comment! That’s why I wrote “would legally need a license to ride on the road“. You can go as wild as you like off-road, though, unless you’re riding on public trails!
It’s obviously a very well-built motor! I hope it serves you at least another 10,000 miles!
Thanks for the comment and constructive criticism, Reggie! In most cases, the bikes in our reviews are not listed in any particular order, as we try to present the readers with different types of bikes, so the order depends on what you’re looking for.
When choosing which bikes to include, we consider the companies’ and bikes’ track records and user reviews, as well as the value for the money they offer. Nowadays, another vital consideration we need to make is availability due to the global bike shortage, as we can only show you bikes that are in stock and that you can actually buy.
Hope that clarifies things! Cheers!
Thanks, Connor! We’ll definitely look into Xtracycle’s models.
Thanks, Charlie! We’ll update that info. Cheers!
You’re welcome, Mike! Enjoy your new e-bike!
Hey Greg, you can buy it on Aventon’s official website on this link!
Hey Kim, the torque sensor is better as it provides smoother and more natural-feeling assistance. But the 700 and LMT’D differ in other important aspects, such as all the accessories, which is another factor to take into account.
