E-bikes designed for urban environments often aren’t the most comfortable rides on the planet, as they sometimes sacrifice plushness in favor of functionality and weight reduction.
This makes them generally on the more manevuerable side, uncomplicated and simple to operate, and relatively easy to
lift, carry, and load up. In short, they’re made to effectively get their rider around town—but not much more.
Many riders might find some of these characteristics appealing, but what is a prospective buyer to do if they prefer a relaxed and comfortable ride? E-bikes in the style we’ve dubbed “city cruisers” might just be the answer.
