What does it really mean to be “the best” ebike? Interesting bikes, but the methodology for this listical makes less sense than the average Spongebob episode and I think the author knew that.
My buddy rides one of the Lectric folders and likes it. I paid 3 times as much for a Specialized Turbo Vado SL, which has fairly mediocre ebike specs. Nevetheless it is also the best ebike because it weighs only a bit more than a normal bike so it handles great and I never have range anxiety because I can just ride it home, even up some brutal hills. We have different use cases and that’s what this article failed to capture very well.
My other buddy is buying an ebike right now and he’s got “specs blinders” really bad. Numbers mean very little compared to riding the bike or knowing what your looking for and having access to reputable experiences from others. He’s going to end up with a suuron or something silly that doesn’t even match »potential« use cases where we live.
