Like its sibling, the Galaxy SL, Evelo’s Galaxy Lux e-bike proudly displays
styling reminiscent of the iconic California beach cruiser. As the top-tier Galaxy model, the Lux shares a lot of overlap with its more economical sister, but it has also been loaded up with some straightforward upgrades and a few new high-end additions. Our review of the Evelo Galaxy Lux covers all of these features in detail, examines the bike’s performance in our testing process, and shares thoughts from our experiences on the saddle.
Both Galaxy models have been designed with a high level of accessibility for seniors, casual or newer riders, and those with disabilities. The Lux takes this concept a step further by shaving off an additional pound (down to a trim 52.4 lbs total) for ease of transport, replacing the chain drive on the SL with a Gates belt drive for extremely low maintenance, and (almost) completely throwing the need for
user-controlled shifting out the window with its Enviolo Automatiq shift system.
