Rad Power Bikes Is In Trouble, Can It Be Saved? + Pace 4 vs Breeze 1 & Super73 MZTF is Out! Ep 57
Welcome to Electric Bike Report. My name is John and I’m Griffin. Little bit of sad news this week. We have another large ebike brand that may be closing its doors. Hopefully they can pull off a comeback. We’re also going to head to the Midwest and talk about an ebike friendly city. Don’t you know? Oh, all right. Let’s check it out. And then we’re also going to compare two of the industry’s best city cruisers and find out which one is best for you. All that and more on this episode of the Weekly Recharge. [Music] All right, jumping into this week’s ebike news. So, let’s talk about Rad Powerbikes. Unfortunately, that is the company that may potentially be closing its doors. And it’s really no secret that the company has been struggling in the recent years, especially since the pandemic. Like a lot of brands, they o overstocked and have had some trouble, you know, moving that excess inventory. But then they they’ve also had some legal troubles. There’s been a bunch of layoffs. I was going to say there’s been unfortunately a lot of rough headlines for them over the years including rounds of layoffs, things like that. Just Yeah. kind of hit after hit and now this is kind of like the big one. Yeah. So, um they are based in Washington and Washington has a uh an act called the Worker Adjustment and Retraining Notification Act uh or WARN. And basically that requires businesses of a certain size to give uh employees advanced notice if they have to close. And so that’s uh basically what’s happening here. So back on November se November 7th, excuse me, RAD filed a worker adjustment and retraining notification with the state of Washington uh saying that it may need to close its doors and lay off its 64 employees in January. Uh so the company sent a letter to its employees, giving them kind of the heads up and saying that the administration, which we’ve seen a change in that as well just within the past year, uh they’ve been, you know, pursuing ways to keep the company in business. uh including and this is a quote from an article here uh strategic partnerships with other companies that could acquire the company or provide funding. Um so the letter also says that you know leadership is still hopeful that they’ll be able to find a solution that will keep them in business uh but that they also have to you know follow this law and give uh employees advanced notice but then if they’re not able to find a solution here uh they will be shutting down on January 9th of 2026. though. I mean, you know, we we’ve reviewed pretty much every bike from Rad and, you know, the company makes solid bikes. They’ve been around for ages since before the pandemic. They are just a pillar in the industry. Everything they put together is safe, reliable, trustworthy. I mean, it’s it’s it’s sad to see this potential. Um, so hopefully we can, you know, help them. At the same time, it’s like you’re right when you call them a pillar of the ebike community. At the same time, that almost feels like selling them short somehow. Like at one point like Rad was like the center of the ebike universe. It felt like they had you know like one year they led in sales like 200,000 or something like that that they shipped out. Like they were rads were just everywhere everywhere. So they still are really I mean riding out in on the paths you see all the time. Absolutely. So like you know potentially for them to go away would be a pretty like rough thing for the industry. I think overall that leaves a lot of bikes out there on the roads without you know dental coverage like moving forward warranty things like that. So, uh, I know they’ve been sniffing around trying to find some like partnerships or like, you know, some way to save Rad. I really do hope someone is able to step in and maybe write the ship a little bit for them because it would be, uh, like just really rough, devastating, leave a little bit of a vacuum if they do like go away. So, you know, fingers crossed they can pull something out. We’re always hopeful and always optimists. You know, we’ve seen things like like Juiced, you know, was another pillar of the ebike industry. When they went away, it was kind of like, “Holy cow, Juiced is gone.” Yeah. Electric stepped in and they ended up looking to revive it. So, we’re going to keep fingers crossed hopeful pulled off here, especially with the Black Friday on the horizon. I’m I’m hopeful, but obviously we’ll see how things shake out. Yeah, exactly. But moving on to other news. So, this one is a new product from Scott who debuted the Fast Lane road bike. And this one looks pretty awesome, I got to say. I’m not even like a roadie guy, but even I’m a little bit wanting to get my hands on this one. So, uh, the Fast Lane has a big focus on stealth with a profile that doesn’t stand out as an ebike. Um, this bike has a carbon fiber frame and fork and depending on the spec here, a total weight of 21.8 to 24.5 lb. Allow me to repeat that in case you didn’t hear that. 21.8 to 24.5 lbs on an ebike. That is just outrageous. So, part of the reason it’s able to achieve such a low weight is because it’s using TQ’s HPR40 mid drive motor, uh, which is meant to supplement the rider subtly instead of really taking over the ride. It has, you know, the lowest output of an ETQ motor at just 200 watts and 40 new m of torque. So, again, it’s just going to enhance a little bit what you can do as a cyclist. Uh, now some of the other uh specs here include a 25 km or 28 mph speeds depending on the EU or US, you know, purchasing respectively. The internals include a 290Wh battery. Pretty sizable battery again for that, you know, low of a weight. Definitely. um a barend display that pairs with a smartphone app, a 2×12 24-speed drivetrain with electronic shifting, and either alloy or carbon crank sets. Also has Shimano hydraulic disc brakes, aluminum or carbon stem and handlebar, carbon wheels with 700c by 34mm Schwelby tires. Now, there are three spec tiers to jump in on this bike. The Fast Lane 20 starts at $7,000. Fast Lane 10 goes to $8,000 and Fast Lane Premium will well cost you a premium at $12,000. As always, our barometer for how good of a bike does this look. We turn to our friend Mike over at EBR, our resident road and gravel rider. And judging by the um pools of drool that we’re coming from, it looks like this has got just about everything on that that a diehard roadie could uh love and enjoy. Yeah, that arrow styling is pretty pretty sick. Even like you said, for a non-roy, it’s pretty sleek. I got a little bit of, you know, like antsiness to try that one. Yeah. So, uh yeah, we’ll uh leave, you know, links down below where you can uh check that bike out. But next story is about Upway, which if you’re not familiar is a uh global company honestly that um deals with refurbished ebikes. So they will accept used ebikes, run them through uh you know their mechanic, make sure everything is good to go and then uh you know post them and they’re they have some great deals. I’ll just say that. But uh so they’ve received a new round of funding and that is $60 million in series C funding that is just meant to help them expand and grow. Uh and the investment company that gave them that uh round of funding is based in Copenhagen and it’s called AP Muller Holding. Uh so according to Bicycle Retailer, they’ve received more than 125 million total in funding since 2021. AP Muller is just one of their investors. Others are Sequoia Capital, Aura Global, and Galvanize. And there’s a few others as well. But um basically upway plans to take this money and use it to expand their sort of brickandmortar physical presence in the US to create jobs and then further encourage that sort of circular consumption model uh just with their recycling and refurbishment. So they are currently established in eight European countries and the US and they have refurbishment centers currently in France, Germany, Belgium and in the US both in New York and California. Uh, and then they’re planning six new centers, one in Denver. We’re not really sure about the others yet, but uh, we’ve got a statement from the company’s co-founders, and they said, “We founded Upway with a simple idea. Light mobility can only be sustainable if it’s circular. This round of funding allows us to scale that vision and make secondhand the first choice for millions of riders. We’re building the industrial and technological infrastructure that gives ebikes a second life with the same quality and safety standards as new ones.” Uh so you know with this goal in mind, the company aims to provide jobs for over 2,000 employees by 2030. Sweet. Bring on more jobs. Um always happy to see stuff like this. You know, with any sort of ecosystem, if it’s, you know, tech or cars are always like a really good example here. It’s like you need to have like a healthy amount of used options, something a little bit, you know, more affordable for people to jump into. Now, sticking with like the car side of things, I’m the type of person who like I would love to go and buy like, you know, from like a local like ad or something like that, but I don’t know what I don’t know when it comes to cars. and I feel a little bit of like comfort when it’s like gone through the dealership and mechanic’s hands and stuff like that. Um, so, you know, jump into used vehicles like that. It’s good to have that option with bikes as well. This is a growing and expanding thing. There are really good deals on new ones, but hey, some people need something even more affordable from a brand that they trust and getting like a strong secondhand market that goes through that process of checks and balances with mechanics who know what they’re doing to make sure that the bike is safe and ridable. I think that’s a great thing. So, you know, really interested to see uh these new location centers where they spring up and whatnot and what Upway does from here with this new funding. Agreed. Yeah. I I don’t personally have any experience, you know, with a hands-on product from Upway, but just like looking at their listings, it’s pretty cool how thorough they at least appear to be just, you know, listing mileage, the condition of everything, and uh you know, what more can you want from a used bike? Yeah, 100%. And then our final news story of the day is a little bit of, well, it’s technically a follow-up story. Um, Super 73’s uh MZFT or the Misfit is now available for purchase. So, we touched on this one a few weeks ago. John actually was able to have an interview with Michael Kavo, the company’s chief marketing officer. So, uh, most of the specs have stayed the same from what we had learned originally, but again, a few more things have been revealed. So, just to run through it again on some of the things we’ve already touched on, it’s a relatively Spartan, you know, affordable mini style ebike. It includes a 500 watt rear hub motor, a single speed drivetrain with thumb throttle, 20 mph max speed, a 520 watth battery, but it is expandable to a dual battery configuration. It’s got a rigid aluminum fork and frame. It’s a two piston hydraulic uh disc brake setup and has lockable storage as well, which we actually thought was pretty cool. Uh it’s got integrated lights, a 250 lb weight limit. Now, some of the new details that we have since learned include the single battery range has an estimate of 15 to 20 mi, and the dual battery increases up to 35 to 40 mi. It is a recommended rider height range of 4T 10 to 5’10. Uh, includes 16×4.5 in Vjackle tires. The MX style handlebar with an LED indicator panel instead of a screen. Um, starting MSRP MSRP price of $1,9.95 and two colors are currently available with a titanium ore and cullenberry. That cullenberry is pretty sweet. Definitely. That’s the purple. What is a cullenberry? I have zero clue. It’s pie season. So, can I get a cullenberry pie? But you can try. At any rate, uh, again, this bike looks really interesting. A little bit on the smaller side. Might be like a good option for like, you know, like older kids or something like that or just shorter riders who want a nice little like moped thing to kind of like get around on. Uh, seems really promising. and we’re looking forward to trying it out soon. That’s right. But that does it for this week’s news. Time for a little bit of trivia. Feel free to follow along at home or wherever it is you’re watching or listening to this. Unfortunately, we finished in a tie last week and nothing makes me angrier than a tie. I’d rather have just lost. So, you can accept that if you want. On second thought, ties are fine. So, uh, we’re going to keep this in the middle, but the, uh, winner will get to crown the the, uh, loser gesture to you because I know how this ends. Um, but like I said, following at home, Christina, what is our question? Numero uno. All right. Also, everyone say hi to Christina. Hi, Christina. Hi, Christina. All right, question number one. What is the typical voltage of most modern commuter ebike batteries? A 12vt, B 24 volt, C 36 to 48 volt or D 96VT. 1 2 3 go. Correct. C most use 36 to 48 volt system systems for optimal range and power. Bzinga. I would have guessed that one too just cuz it had a range. It wasn’t should have thrown a 52 in there. That could have tripped us up a little more, but yep. Yep. Yep. All right. Question two. What’s the world record for the longest ebike ride on a single charge as of 2025? A 102 miles. Wait, sorry, I need clarification. Is this from our data or is this the internet and the world? I’m assuming world record would imply not just our data. Gotcha. Okay. Thank you. A 102 miles, B 185 miles, C 26 miles, or D 228 miles. H. Okay. One in four chance here. Let’s do it. You are both wrong. It was D. Ah, 228 mi with the Delast Prime eBike in 2017. Holy smokes. Wow. All right. Held the record for a long time. Fast. Isn’t Del Fast like one of those like moto ones? I couldn’t tell you to be honest. Whatever. I’m going to go arm wrestle Michael over these questions later. That’s how I solve my disputes with arm wrestling. They’ll probably beat me though. All right, question number three. Yeah. What year was Rad Powerbikes founded? A. 2007, B. 2004, C 2012, or D. 2014. Okay. One, two, three. Both wrong again. Dang it. The answer is a 2007. 2007. You know that I knew they were like 20ish years. I wasn’t sure if it was above 20 or below 20. Darn it. Wow. All right, we’re still tied. You’ve got Hopefully Hopefully you guys at home are doing better than us. Yeah, also it’s pretty early here, so we’re filming earlier than usual. I’m going to blame it on that. Yep. Me, too. Yep. We are agreed to get not quite awake yet. Mhm. All right. Question number four. What was the first ebike Rad made? A. Rad Rover, B Rad Runner, Custom Bikes, or D Rad City? One, two, three. You’re both correct. Started making custom bespoke electric bikes. All right. All right. On to number five. So, still tied, right? Got you right. All right. How many ebikes has Rad Power Bikes sold since they opened shop? A. 350,000. B. 910,000. C. 680,000 or D 560,000. Can you run through those one more time? Yep. Um A is 350,000, B 910,000, C 680,000, or D 560,000. Okay. One, two, three. Oh, Griffin took the lead. Dang it. Answer is C. I only didn’t choose C because C has been the correct one in a few statistics,000. Maybe you know the question makers on a vitamin C kick. Just lots of C perhaps everyone knows if you don’t know the answer on your ACT or SAT. Yeah, why I didn’t do very amazingly. You learned that after. All right, on number six. How many newton meters of torque does the Amos Santa Monica have? A 65, B 70, C 90, or D 80. You would think I would remember this better than I do, but ah both wrong. The answer is B. 70 Newton meters of force. 70. I put 80. Yeah, I just stuck with C because we’re talking about it just like last week. Down to the final question. Oh, this is hard. This is hard. I promise this one is about your bike specifically. So, okay. Well, let’s see what happens. I might be getting the dunce helmet next week. All right. What size motor does the Utopia Carbon 1 step through have? A 350 watt, B 500 watt, C 250 watt, or D 750 watt. Flip it. You’re both right. I saw Griffin write his and I was like, “Oh, well, doesn’t matter if John was my bike.” 350 watts. All right. Well, let’s just go ahead. For those who didn’t keep track, that’s four for Griffin, three for John, and the Dub’s helmet is John’s for the wearing for one week. For one week. I’ll send it back to him next week. But let us know how you did following along at home down in the comments. [Music] All right. Now, we’re going to take a look at some gear that we’ve been sent to test out. And this is actually a good one to take a look at because, you know, shopping season’s upon us, like right around the corner and whatnot. So, good time to be thinking of some accessories for loved ones who are cycling fans. John, what are we talking about today? We’re talking about the Feedback Sports Numa CC floor pump. Everybody needs a good floor pump for their bike if you don’t have a motorized one. But, uh, this one’s very cool because it can function as a normal floor pump, but it also has a uh it can it can be like a charge pump. Um, so it has a concealed charge tank inside and that allows you to basically pump that up and then release all of that air at once, which gives you the ability to seat tubeless tires. So, the lever here seems to indicate uh regular pump or charge mode. Yep. Nicely labeled there so you can uh flip back and forth. It’s got a steel base, a dual layer aluminum tube here, an oversized uh readout there, and then we’ve got a plastic handle, but there’s actually some storage in here. You’ve got uh your valve things up there. You can stash some extra stuff in there if you need to. And uh it is compatible with Shraider, Presa, and Click valves. Um, now one of the coolest things that I I mean this is great on its own, but it’s also compatible with an upcoming repair stand from Feedback Sports, uh, that is called the Pro Airlift, and that’s going to be releasing in February of 2026. Uh, so basically, it uses like a pneumatic system to raise your bike up, and you can use this to just pump that up. Uh, so that stand is going to be portable. We’ll probably talk about it on the show in February when that comes out. But, uh, yeah, pretty cool compatibility there. And then this comes with a three-year warranty and it is priced at right around 150 bucks. So, uh, yeah, if you’re in need of a good, sturdy, reliable floor pump, take a look at this. We’ll leave links down in the video description. All right, so there’s nothing new that came to us this week. Not totally unheard of. We’re entering shopping season. Brands are a little bit focused on the Black Friday sales, but we’ll be back to getting some new products to talk about here shortly. In the meantime, we still had a backlog we were working through and there are a couple of bikes that we’ve had go live worth talking about and that includes the Veto Nomads review which I did. This was actually a really pretty awesome bike. It’s pretty affordable. It is uh kind of like a little bit of like a touring style bike. Just really solid frame construction. Uh like nice motor like activity as well. It’s very like subtle assist but actually like meaningful. You can like feel it working. Uh the only like slight drawback to the bike in my eyes for at least the US crowd listening to this is it’s capped at like 15 and a half miles per hour on the speeds which is actually more in line with the EU side of things. So European listeners are like what’s the problem? I got no issue with that. Now one of the coolest things about this bike though for a few hundred more you can actually add on two spare batteries and this unique rack that holds them. The rack actually like positions them in such a way where it like wouldn’t interfere with getting some paneers on there. So again, this is like a potential like adventure adventure type bike where you can just kind of like load up with battery for days and you know get the open road. So uh really cool bike to check out if you you’ve got some longdistance cycling plans like on the horizon. One you’re going to want to take a look at. And then for cruiser fans, John had the I’m a Santa Monica. Is that right? Yeah, for sure. And this is a bike that we’ve had a ton of requests to look at. Uh, so it was really cool to get into this and it was just honestly a very pleasant surprise as to how well put together the Santa Monica was. Uh, it’s just I would say one of the most comfortable, most responsive, peppiest uh, cruisers that we have tested and uh, yeah, I mean I think that that we were all just really impressed with how how well it came together. It also has like one of the quietest quietest rear hub motors that I think I have ever experienced personally. So uh, pretty awesome bike. Be sure to check that one out. And as always, make sure you’re subscribed so you can stay up to date on all of our new content. All right, each week we like to highlight either really cool bucket list destinations or just a shout out to cities with really good infrastructure for uh cycling friendly environments. John, what are we checking out this week? Well, as I hinted at in the intro, we’re going to Minnesota. Yeah. Anyone from Minnesota watching this, please critique John’s Minnesota accent out of a scale of 1 to 10. It’s It’s probably not that good, but I’ll try. All right, I’m not going to read the whole thing in that accent, but anyway, uh, so the city of Minneapolis in Minnesota specifically. So, um, this is just really hailed as one of the most commuter friendly ebike cities in in the country, honestly. Uh, so I pulled some information here from the city’s website as well as uh some other stuff that we’ll get into, but um, a quote directly says, “Minneapolis has 89 miles of trails, 36 miles of curb protected bikeways and paths, and over 140 m of painted bike lanes. these numbers are growing as new projects are completed. Uh, and actually they had like basically a map showing the sort of current infrastructure and how they hope to expand it. And it appears like they’re actually aiming to essentially double their their capacity here. Uh, yeah. Which, you know, basically blankets the entire city with bike friendly sprawling bike lanes everywhere. That’s sweet. Absolutely. Um, so some pretty big accolades here. Uh, at one point, People for Bikes actually ranked Minneapolis in second place on its list of city rankings, although that has slid a little bit. It’s down at 36, which is still pretty good. I mean, it’s, you know, hundreds and hundreds of cities on there. Um, it’s also a gold level bicycle friendly community according to the League of American Bic Bicyclists, excuse me, that almost turned into a swear word. Uh, and then it was also named as the best place to bike commute year round in 2017 by outsideonline.com. Nice. Uh, so one of the coolest trail systems in the city that I found here outside of just sort of their downtown citywide in infrastructure uh is called the Grand Rounds National Scenic Byway, which basically just makes a big loop around the city. And there’s seven segments to this, but there’s a total of 51 miles of bike friendly trails. Um, and then I’m pulling info here from the National Scenic Byway Foundation. Uh, so if you’re starting in downtown, there’s a section called the downtown riverfront. There’s a bunch of historic structures there as well as modern buildings. You’ve got some tourist attractions like the Stone Arch Bridge, St. Anthony Falls, the Mill City Museum, and Gold Medal Park. But then it’s sort of the next connecting segment here is called the Mississippi River segment. And I think one of the coolest things there uh I’m personally a fan of architecture. So, uh there’s a guy named Frank Garry that if you’re not familiar with him, he does these really cool smooth sculptural buildings names. Uh so he designed a building called the Weissman Art Museum that you can see on that segment of the trail. Uh the next one is I don’t know probably one of my favorite words that I’ve encountered in a while. It is the mini haha section. Uh and it wasn’t worthy of a big haha. Just a mini haha. Just a mini haha. Yes. Exactly. So this uh part of the trail runs along Minihaha Creek and weaves through dense woods and also links to Minihaha Falls. I’m going to try to say that word as often as I can. But another segment is called the chain of lakes. And so, uh, as you might expect, there are a bunch of lakes in a chain, and this makes loops around all of them. So, there’s Brownie Lake, Cedar Lake, Lake of the Isles, uh, a lake that was known as Lake Calhoun, and I’m going to try this. It’s now called Bedet Maka Ska. Okay. Yep. Sure. Uh, and then also Lake Harriet. So, in addition to just some pretty scenery, you can also, uh, hit up some fishing spots there. But then another segment is called Theodore Worth and that’s a park that has mountain bike trails, hiking trails. There’s a bird sanctuary there as well as disc golf courses. So some good outdoor recreation all around. And then there’s another segment called Victory Memorial that actually uh passes through a World War I memorial. There’s like 560 something plaques uh just to each of the residents who lost their lives in that war. Uh and then we have the northeast section of the trail that is uh basically a scenic off- streetet route. Although that area is known for its arts district, its restaurants and its bars. So if you are there, you know, there’s plenty of other stuff to check out. Um, one of the coolest things that I saw here on the National Scenic Byway Foundation’s website is they actually have like a recommended two-day itinerary that takes you kind of all around the city on this path, just kind of pointing out all the best stops and and spots to check out. Uh, so depending on where you ride within the city, class 1, 2, and three bikes are allowed. Um, although like California, CLA, uh, ebikes cannot be both class 2 and class 3 at the same time. Um, and then you know if you if you uh are riding around the city, class 3 seems to be good, but then class one and two seem to be legal in like pretty much everywhere. So, uh, as we’ve kind of found is common with this section of the show. And then there’s also a bunch of ebike rental companies in the city if you can’t bring your own or you don’t want to. So, yeah. I mean, whether you’re here in the winter uh, coming up or, you know, next summer, something like that, planning a vacation, seems like a pretty cool city to get around with. and also uh some cool trails just for recreation. I always love a city you can take in by bike. Always a huge plus in our world. If you have checked this place out, please let us know a little bit more about it from your perspective down in the comments below. Or, you know, give us a suggestion if you’ve got a city you’re pretty proud of with your own infrastructure for uh cycling. Uh let us know that too and we might explore that one next week. Don’t you know? [Music] All right. Now it is time for John and I’s favorite section of the show that is answering questions and comments from you, our audience members. The most informed and best audience on the planet. I’ll fight anyone who says differently. Golf clap for you guys. Thank you. Thank you. All right, let’s jump in here with a question from uh Anushella 2 from the Moon Cool TK1 trike video on YouTube who says, “I just got this trike as I’ve been pretty mobile. Uh, let’s see. Yeah, as I’ve been pretty mobile from a back injury for four years, and I have neuropathy and still don’t feel comfortable on my regular two-heel bike for obvious reasons. I feel silly asking, but I’m having a hard time figuring out how to turn uh the headlight on and to operate the different speeds and modes. I wish I researched more because I would have preferred more speeds. Does this actually have harder penalty because in finding the pedaling extremely easy? And I do want to get exercise as well. Perhaps you can guide me to where I might find these answers. Thank you. Sure. Fair enough. Yeah. Um, so first things first, like don’t ever feel bad about sending us a question. Don’t feel silly or dumb. Like that’s literally what we’re here for and we really enjoy this part of our job. So yeah, happy that you reach out with questions. So, uh, this is actually something that comes up pretty regularly. Um, and and it’s interesting because most ebikes function in similar ways as far as their like interface goes, but it it isn’t necessarily always obvious. But generally in this case and with most ebikes to turn on your headlight, all you have to do is hold the plus or like up arrow button, the whatever button that increases your pedal assist level. Um, so hold that and then that will usually kick on the light system. Um, you can also if for some reason your bike or trike in this case is different, you can always just flip through your user manual and that information should be in there. Um, but yeah, the next thing, so yeah, uh, as far as adjusting pedal assist level, kind of same thing again. You’ve got the plus and minus buttons there. So that will increase or lower your power levels. Um, so the TK1 here is a single speed trike. So kind of as you pointed out there, there really isn’t a way to add resistance. The only way to really do that is to ride with the lowest pedal assist level, PA, PAS1, or no pedal assist at all. So that would be PAS0. Um, so that that’s kind of the best advice that I have for you with a single speed. Uh, otherwise, you know, yeah, if if anyone out there is shopping for a trike uh that wants to get some exercise, you might maybe consider, yeah, looking at something with uh multiple speeds, which aren’t really that common, but we do have some uh out there. And you can always like find other ways too, like um there’s baskets and stuff on the strikes. You could probably like weigh it down a little bit to add some weight and resistance that way. You just do really have to be careful with doing that. I was going to say just, you know, do so um what’s the word I’m looking for? Just do so with caution, of course. Just make sure you’re, you know, taking uh all the precautions you need to there. But yes, there are certain ways you can do that. And of course, you don’t have to like commit to that. You can start out with no resistance or something and then kick it on as things get a little bit tougher or anything like that. But for sure, and like John said, hey, no such thing as any like bad or wrong question. Throw them our way. We’re happy to help with the the basics and the advanced stuff, whatever we can do. That is right. But moving on to a question from the Venton Pace 4 review on YouTube. Uh so this comes to us from Lauren Link 4345. We are a couple seniors active looking at Pace 4 versus Breeze 1 as our first ebikes. Mostly flat paved rides. Seems like both are great. Advice please. Um you are correct. Both are great. You know, this is why I say our audience is like the best and most informed out there because whenever we get these questions for comparisons, you are always kind of like narrowing it down to ones we usually have on our best pages for a reason anyway, which is kind of the case here, the the pace and the breeze. Both are great lightweight city cruisers and there is a fair amount of overlap, but there are maybe a couple of slight different uh like things here that can steer you one way or the other. So, we’ll go ahead and do a headto-head on this one. Um because again, at the end of the day, you’re not going to be going wrong one way or the other. Both bikes are really responsive, fun, and just have great handling. But again, slight differences here. Uh John, I’m going to let him take the Pace 4 and then I will cover the Breeze one as I reviewed that one. So John, I’ll let you start things off if you Okay. Yeah, for sure. So, uh just made a list of the sort of highlights here from the Pace 4 that stood out to me based on my review of that bike. Um just number one, extremely natural feeling pedal assist. So that bike has a 500 watt motor that’s pretty peppy. Uh it also has three customizable power levels, but just the way uh Venton has really done their programming uh with this sort of latest line of ebikes, everything just feels really natural, really dialed in. Um so, you know, it does give you the sense that you’re kind of riding a non-electric bike, just you know, faster and easier. And uh again, with the customization there, you can change that uh output with the motor. But another thing is that this bike uh kind of it’s a little bit of a departure from the previous version of the Pace. So, it blends commuter and cruiser styles. So, it does have a pretty comfortable and upright riding position, but it also is a little bit more stretched out and forward leaning than previous models and the Breeze 1. Um, this bike, as with all event models now, uh has just some incredible security features. You get the mo uh rear wheel and battery lock just for starters. uh regardless of whether or not you want to get into everything that you can access via the event and app. But then if you do that um there’s a subscription that’s uh paid after a year free that gives you access to uh additional GPS tracking. You can remote disable the bike if somebody steals it. There’s geo fencing if you’re letting somebody uh borrow the bike. The geo fencing we can attest works because we frequently rode it outside of that not knowing that someone had set that up and the bike shuts down. Yes. Yes. Yes, it uh so just a ton of really cool stuff and u you know we’ll talk about price later but you don’t see these features very often at this price. Uh but another thing is just overtheair updates through the app and the uh uh ACU module on the bike. So when we tested the bike it was fairly basic in what it offered but uh since we reviewed this Aventon added a ton of features. There’s now a sensor switch feature that gives you the option to ride with either torque or cadence sensing modes. There’s a cruise control function. Now, there’s a boost mode that gives you like a little bit of extra kick above the sort of rated peak power. Um, and then you also get a suspension seat post on this ver on this bike. Uh, but then just kind of just one downside that that we called out at least again at the time that we reviewed it that it did not come with brake lights, although it has turn signals. Um, but I have heard some reports that maybe that has changed. I was going to say they I Yeah, I heard think I heard that too. They may have updated the brake that they were using so of equal stopping power and quality, but that one does have the um um brake light ability with that supposedly. Again, we’re not sure exactly, but let us know if you bought one and yeah, let us know how yours came for sure. And then moving over to the Breeze one side of things. So, this one also has a pretty powerful motor and wide range of pedal assist levels ranging from natural and light to quick and easy. Um so, it just feels extremely relaxed and comfortable with a nice upright riding position. Um, it’s also extremely light and nimble, uh, under 50 lbs. Easy to maneuver and transport, of course. And now, it’s got a wider range of color options, something Veltric likes to do, get very colorful, including, you know, there’s like brighter, bolder color choices, I would say. Um, it has a lot of customization options and ride data tracking via the Veltric app. It also has find my tech for location tracking, though it’s a little bit more limited than the paces system, which is pretty robust. Um, overall, it’s a really nice bike. Um the only like real downside I had with it kind of has some like bigger bulkier like control uh things like up in the cockpit. So the handlebar can feel a little bit cluttered, but the handlebar is probably going to be like a thing that may or may not sway you. Kind of like John was talking about with the Pace 4 went a little departure from the norm for most cruiser style bikes with the the handlebar they use. Don’t get don’t get us wrong, we liked it, but at the same time, you know, not as traditional cruisery as what you get with the Breeze. That one is a little bit easier to just be upright and relaxed and straight back. uh which may be something that’s appealing to you. Um but let’s go ahead and take a look at some of the testing data. Um again, I’ll let John kick things off with the pace 4. Okay. Yeah. Uh so let’s talk about our speed test first. So first thing is that both of these bikes are both class 2 and class 3 capable and both have that ability to switch between torque and cadence sensing modes. Um so again, when we tested the Pace 4, it only had the torque sensing mode uh be before the OTAA update. Um, so you know, when we tested it, it had three pedal assist levels and then sort of the lowest two ramped up in power about the same regardless of whether we had it in class 2 or class 3 mode. Um, and then there was just more difference on the third highest pedal assist level. Um, but overall the power levels were well balanced. Yeah. And this is like how it comes uh out of the box basically at the time that we tested it. Aventon may have made some changes to that programming since and you can actually customize that programming yourself. So really you can kind of like dial these in how you want. On the Breeze one side of things, I mean there’s five assist levels there. Pretty balanced speed and power in cadence mode. Overall, I’d say the class 2 torque test, we did hit the 20 m per hour ceiling kind of early. Uh but speeds were much better balanced in class 3 in our opinion. And again, you do have some like optionality in how you approach it there cuz in addition to class 2 or class 3 mode, torque and cadence mode, you also have like the three different levels or three different profiles of that bike. So there’s tons of optionality to play with that. You can kind of like find your particular speed and, you know, roll with it. We only typically test the Velri models in their highest riding mode, right? I was going to say we typically go with like the high mode if I remember correctly. I don’t know for sure off the top of my head, but that does sound right. Um we don’t want to give you like 12 versions of a speed test. It’s going to take an hour to watch that video. Nobody wants to watch that. Uh but but again, you can there’s pretty much something for everybody is I think the point like we’re trying to get at for sure. Moving on to the range test though. So this was actually pretty awesome to see. Both of these came in pretty neck and neck. So, the pays for with a 733Wh battery had uh 41 and 86 miles of range. Um, and then on the Breeze one side of things, this one I do think, again, I don’t remember 100%, but uh, we did do like the conservative power mode and the high power mode doing our min and max test respectively on this one. But the Breeze one had 38 mi and 86 miles, so virtually neck andneck, but that’s off the 672-wh battery, so a little bit lighter weight on that one. Yeah, pretty rad. Uh, moving on to the hill test results. So, this was at our old hill test location called Hellhole Trail. The Pace 4 had a throttle time of 2 minutes and a pedal time of 1 minute and 23 seconds. And then the Breeze, a little bit slower on throttle at 2 minutes and 10 seconds and then a smidge faster on pedal at a minute 21. Either way, both pretty strong performers there for hellhole location. Yes. And then on the brake test, uh, both had safe and better than average results. The Pace 4 came in at 20’8 in. Uh whereas the Breeze 1 did 21 feet 3 inches. So just a smidge longer. But like John said, both under the all ebike average. So good stoppers. And then just kind of rounding all of that out in terms of who we would recommend each bike for. Uh so the Pace 4 is going to be best for those who want just generally the most bang for the buck. Um we’ll hit this again later in the deals of the week section. Uh but this bike is currently $1,600, which is just awesome again for all of the things that you get. Um, and it did by the numbers just come out on top by a slim margin across the board. So, pretty cool there. Um, but we would also recommend the Pace 4 for those who want the most security features and just sort of that high-tech app connected feel. Although, again, you don’t have to get into that stuff if you don’t want to. Uh, we would also say that the Pace 4 is best for those who really like and enjoy that slightly sportier, more stretched out riding position. uh as well as those who might appreciate the suspension seat post for the smoothest possible ride right out of the box without needing to upgrade. That’s right. And then on the Breeze one side of things, it’s going to be pretty good for those who want the more relaxed and upright ride. Going back to that point, again, that is something, you know, based on the demographic, you said you’re seniors, but you’re active. But a lot of seniors typically prefer the more upright thing. you might be okay where you’re already active with the forward lean of the pace, but hey, you don’t even got to be like a senior to appreciate just the upright posture. Very relaxed and comfortable. It’s also worth just saying, cuz I don’t think we’ve touched on this, that you can always swap out handlebars regardless of 100%. Yeah, that’s that’s a good clarification to make. Um, but one thing that Breeze does have going for it, again, the styling of it is really nice just with those bold color options. That’s something that John and I have on numerous times in the past. We do like brands that kind of give you some like bolder like choices out there. Um, and Veltric delivers on that front for sure. Uh, it’s probably slightly more nimble handling overall, I would say, and a little bit of a zippier motor, like just a smidge. And you know, those who want the absolute lowest standover height, um, it is lower on the Breeze 1 than it is on the Pace 4. Now, as John pointed out, the um, Pace is receiving a pretty good Black Friday sale right now. Um, things can change. We do not have insights to everyone’s deals, what’s going on, but as of right now, looking at it, the Breeze 1 is currently going for $17.99, but they’re also throwing in some freebies and extras in the form of a rack and fenders coming along with it to help uh boost the value there a little bit more. So, if you do want to do some full-time commuting, they will give you some of those um features on there as well. But, as always, um let us know which one ends up sounding, you know, better to you. We always like to hear the follow-up and, you know, find out which ones you end up writing. So, and you can check these out at the links down below. Full disclosure here, those are affiliate links and do help us if you choose to purchase DTC. And if not, no hard feelings. Just follow up us with us anyway, you know. All right, moving on to our next one. Charlie Smith 9310 from last week’s episode who says, “Hey guys, once again, the state of California has a great idea that completely fails on execution and falls victim to headline driven reactionary politics and legislation. I live in the San Francisco Bay area and work with low-income populations. The ebike incentives program had the potential to make a real impact on families and individuals who struggle with the skyrocketing cost of living in our state and the ever widening wealth gap. A $1,000 ebike credit puts reliable, sustainable, accessible transportation in the reach of those who need it for work and local commuting. Conversely, a $1,000 EV incentive is essentially meaningless to those who lack the means to buy a $30,000 car. I can’t help but think the cancellation of this program has a consequence of recent anti-ebike legislation our state has passed. As many cities are now struggling to interpret laws that lack consistency and common sense. This is why we need more advocates for reasonable and responsible ebike legislation. I recommend anyone interested consider donating to People for Bikes and Calike. Um we do appreciate the follow-up here as we reported on last week. Um so I believe it’s $30 million in funds was set aside originally for some uh ebike credits. less than half of that was actually used up before they ended up transitioning the remaining funds into an EV program. John and I were a little dismayed at that. We would have preferred stayed with bikes. We’re trying to be glass half full here and say, “Well, going to something EVs,” which is good. That’s something. But I do like the point that Charlie like made here. I think, you know, it is just more impactful. A,000 bucks in the ebike world can get you a lot of bike and get you an outright bike. Yes, absolutely. or substantially lower the cost whereas it’s just doesn’t really make a huge dent in that of an electric car. So, I thought this was really uh good comment to have shared. Yeah, definitely. I I you know, wanted to really just Charlie recognized you for for this insight and I appreciate your perspective, you know, right there on the front lines dealing with, you know, low-income communities. That’s great. Um, again just reiterating that it’s in in the case of bikes a,000 bucks towards it is is much uh more practical and you know we’ve reported on a number of stories around the country where there’s sort of a lack of consistency in how ebikes are defined legally as well as how their speeds are regulated and how their power levels have caused some problems. Um, so we definitely support any efforts to clarify these things. I mean, even in the cases of, you know, tariffs, but, you know, cities around the country, like all these things are kind of up in the air, there’s some gray areas. So, we really appreciate any any groups that are, you know, working towards sort of unifying the definitions here and and the laws. And People for Bikes is just one group doing that. So, shout out to People for Bikes. We quote them often. We steer people to their website often. um they work with state and federal legislators and we just really like to see them helping to progress the industry. Uh yeah, and if you agree with John and I or with Charlie here, like please like sound off like let us know down in the comments like your thoughts on on this particular matter. This is something you know like we we think could use a little bit more discourse and dialogue and you know hopefully we can send this off to people who are in charge and make these decisions and you know maybe reallocate some funding back into the the ebike sector. Yeah, but for sure as Charlie said, you know, we definitely encourage our audience to support people for bikes as well as any, you know, more local or state organizations like that like Calike that uh Charlie mentioned. So, but anyway, moving on. So, this is our last question for the week. This comes to us from the mock wheel basalt 2.0 review that you did, Griffin from Light Zone 9, who says, “Thanks for a great comprehensive review. When you review a 2.0 0 version. I would really like to know what changes were made to version one and whether the improvements justify the price increase. Um, yeah, sure thing. So, first of all, sorry we didn’t include more information on that within the review. Um, as for the justification of the pricing, that’s really difficult to fully get into because I just don’t know everyone’s budgets. Um, we’ve talked about this a little bit before, but like, you know, in my world, I can absolutely justify spending X on a bike, but someone who’s very casual with it, like maybe their budget’s half that or something like that. It’s really hard to weigh in from that perspective. Um, and then you know when it comes to details between a 2.0 model versus 1.0, it’s one of those tricky things as a reviewer and John, I know like we’ve talked about this a little bit in the past where it’s really tempting to just slide into like a comparison when you do the 2.0 model because you want to you had experience with the first, you want to say everything that changed, but the reality is ebikes are still like a growing burgeoning like thing like in our lives. And for most people when they come across our reviews, it’s they’re most people aren’t upgrading yet. most people are just getting into it for the first time, which is why we usually don’t, you know, spend too much time in a comparison, but I do understand the value and importance of like talking about a little bit. So, um, again, with in general with each version, 2.0, 3.0, whatever, with with each newer bike, typically things are improving. It’s very rare to see a step back. Um, components either are better or, you know, in some cases stay the same, but you get some upgrades while things like stay the same in other areas. Um, one thing we always recommend is if you’re interested in the version two or three of a bike model you are ready to upgrade per se, then you know you can potentially do that and offset some of that cost by looking to sell your bike locally. We talked about upway earlier. You can look it and see if they um want to take it and you can go through their website to learn about that process as well. Now, specifically coming back to the mock wheel basalt and basalt 2.0, there are a handful of differences here. Um, the 2.0 includes everything on the 1.0 but also has the removable display which is pretty cool. works as a key system basically. So once you pop that off, motor and battery dead, no one’s going to be able to turn it on. Kind of nice to have that. Also fat tire bike, fairly heavy, nobody’s going to be, you know, enjoying ped like 80ish pounds or something like no one’s going to run off with that thing. I mean, still lock it up. That’s your best course of action, but trust me, it’s not going to be fun. Um, the chain stay uh integrated turn signals were also something that was new, sticking with the more modern times. Like to see that. Um, an 8-speed drivetrain option as well, upgrading from the over the barney, I believe that the 1.0 O had and then two additional color options on the ST model including pink and a camo option as well. So again, some you know like slight meaningful upgrades there. But um overall, you know, the Salt 2.0 still one of our best fat tire bikes. If you like powerhouses, it is a good one to look at. Um if you have the 1.0 model, I don’t know that you absolutely need to jump into the 2.0 model just yet, but again, if you are interested, you can always look at selling yours and hopping into the 2.0. But that’s going to do it for the questions and comments of the week. If you have one that you would like to throw at John and I, we are happy to take those. You can comment on this video or really anywhere on any of our YouTube videos or our website. And last but not least, our email at questions at electricbikereport.com. [Music] All right, it’s time for everybody’s favorite way to save money. Deals of the week. Deals of the week. I was singing. Oh man. Oh, I didn’t. I was too busy warming up my fingers. It’s really cold. It is a little chilly in here. starting early in the morning until I was like warm up the fingers and think about warming up the vocal cords. It’s okay. I know people at home were already singing along with you. Also, my my voice is, you know, king. Don’t give me that look. Exactly. I’m not going to not going to step on John’s a solo act over here. Beyonce done left Destiny’s Child. All right. Go ahead, John. Anyway, yeah. So, this is I feel like the best time of year for this segment of the show as we are approaching the holiday season and Black Friday coming up. So, we are just running through Black Friday like like it’s one day. Yeah, exactly. It’s it’s the month of November. Starting early. Yeah. Uh but anyway, so I actually want to start off with a mention and a shout out to Rob Maxwell 3678 for pointing us to Bull’s bikes. Uh they have deals going on right now that are up to 57% off. So there are some huge markdowns. There’s some bikes that we’ve reviewed over there. The Copperhead Evo HD 750 Wave. So that’s a step through style commuter with a Bosch performance line CX mid drive. That is $2,500 off down to just $19.99. So that is a steal for a bike. You don’t find Bosch motors every day at the $2,000 price mark. Pretty insane. And then uh if you’re into road bikes, we’ve also got the Alpine Hawk Evo and that is a Fizua mid drive equipped carbon road bike and that is also kind of the same deal. 2500 bucks off down to $18.99. Very nice. And then over on Ride OneUp side of thing, we have some Black Friday early access up to $600 off select Ride OneUp models. Now, the Rev One full suspension moto style ebike with its 1000 watt motor uh is $400 off down to $2,95, which is a really awesome deal on that one. Yes, it is. The Trail Rush hard tail EMTB that came out this year, getting a slight uh discount, $100 off on that one down to $19.95. Um this one’s also FSA and HSA eligible. noticed that they’re pushing that on their website. So maybe, you know, look into more details on that one. But good deal for a newer model there for sure. And then moving on to Aventton’s Black Friday sale. So they are offering up to 500 bucks off depending on the bike that you’re looking at. Uh some of the best deals that I found there. Again, the Pace 4 that we talked about in the comparison earlier, that city uh cruiser/uter hybrid, $200 off, and that is again $15.99. Awesome deal there. Then also if you’re looking for something even lighter weight, the Sulttera 2.5 city bike, uh that one is 200 bucks off as well down to just $9.99 and you know it’s pretty tough to find and getting tougher to find ebikes at that $1,000 price point. So like if you got to hike some bikes upstairs or something like that, Zero is a great one to look at for only a,000 bucks. That’s a killer deal. Yeah. Um, also electric’s Black Friday sale still going on. Low prices and free accessories for them, including like the Expedition 2 long range dual battery cargo bike is $19.99 with included cargo and passenger accessories. One of the better deals when you kind of like factor in all the different like accessories you throw on there. With a cargo bike, you always want to build in like, oh, I’m going to have good accessories, too. But in this case, you’re getting like a whole host of things with that one. So, there’s also the electric one pinion equipped mini commuter. $500 off on that one. now down to $1899. Um I said before you don’t see box equipment at $2,000 very often. You never see pinion equipment under $2,000. Correct. So that is pretty awesome there. And then moving on to our last one for this week. So this is over at Velrik. They have up to $220 off their bestelling ebikes. So that includes the Fold One Plus. That is uh their sort of bright and customizable folding ebike that is $14.99. It also comes with a suspension seat post that is valued at 120 bucks. But then also the Breeze one that we talked about earlier. Uh that again lightweight city cruiser is $17.99, but that one also comes with the fenders and cargo rack to get you set up for commuting. And those are valued at $150. So yeah, stay tuned as we uh progress through this month. We’re going to keep these deals of the week coming. [Music] All right. If it weren’t for you guys, we wouldn’t really be able to be here having this show. So, we like to dedicate a segment to the show to highlight a commenter from the past week or so. So, yeah. Who do we have Griffin this week? So, this week we have How Bazeri um who commented on last week’s show. And I tell you what, John, like Slime is not a sponsor of this show, but like they should be by now because they keep coming up every week. And hey, like why not? They’re awesome product as this commenter illustrates here. We also need Yerba Mate sponsorships. So, if you’re watching, I was going to say we got those cans up front every week. We’re just waiting for for someone to make it official. Um, but jumping to uh how bizarre over here. So, continuing our conversation about slime and the benefits of it. For those who don’t know, it’s something that’s like sealant you put within the inner tube of your tire to help with flat prevention. And this is a really great example as he illustrates. He says, “Green slime has saved me hundreds of dollars in several hours of my life. I have over 12,000 miles combined on my electric 1.0 and 3.0 long range stepovers. I also ride a Specialized Rock Hopper Expert with well over 30,000 miles. That’s bonkers. Um, I ride 365 days a year in all weather conditions. I live in Molen, Illinois, next to the Mississippi River. Before I knew about Green Slime, I would average a flat rear tire every 200 m on an ebike. I haven’t had a flat tire in over 5,000 miles, all bikes included. Green Slime is an absolute game changer. It is easy to install and inexpensive. Excellent show. Thank you. Uh, just bought another electric after watching more of your videos. XP4 750 stepover green. I plan on adding a 20 amp hour battery and snow tires. Thank you for keeping us in the loop. Happy trails. It’s time to go for a bike ride. Thank you so much for commenting. Glad you follow along and you know, I hope you enjoyed the new uh XP4. That’s a great bike as well. And again, another free plug for you, Slime. It’s really good stuff. We we do give it our full endorsement and you know uh keep on riding out there. And as always, if you want to be highlighted in this segment of the show, drop us a comment, email us, do all the things. Thank you. [Music] All right, if you’re still hanging out with us, we really appreciate you sticking around. Thanks for sending us your questions, your comments, your information about you and your bike and how you ride. We’re always happy to talk about and interact with you guys. So yeah, again, just this is this is great. We love doing this show and uh thanks for being here. Absolutely. And so you can leave us a comment. You can write us at questionsele electric bikeport.com. And as a reminder, you can catch us on any of your favorite podcast platforms, Spotify, Apple Music, wherever it is you’re listening, we will be there. But that’s going to do it for John and I on this episode of the Weekly Recharge.
This episode brings more potentially sad news, as another major e-bike company has announced its possible closure in January.
We also have some good news, too! We cover new releases from Scott and Super73, along with a planned expansion from Upway.
We also take a look at the city of Minneapolis, Minnesota and it’s e-bike-friendly trails and infrastructure.
We address questions and comments from our audience, with topics including using a trike for exercise, the impact of California’s cancelled e-bike voucher program, and a comparison between two popular city cruisers.
