Charge City
The City is a well-equipped commuter and one of the most affordable electric bikes they have tested. A hub motor, five levels of pedal help, and a throttle are included on this Class 2 e-bike. It does, however, include fenders, a rear rack, and running lights (nice additions at this price). The foldable pedals and handlebar are ideal for those with limited space (a flip of a lever at the stem rotates it 90 degrees). The Charge is offered in one size only, with a low-step or regular frame, and four appealing colors (red, blue, silver, and turquoise) (it fits riders from 5-foot-1 to 6 feet).
In comparison to many other city-style e-bikes they have lately tried, the City seems surprisingly quick on the road. This is most likely due to the City's weight, which is 10 to 25 pounds less than many other e-bikes in its class. By excluding any type of suspension, the City saves a significant amount of weight (and money). There was still enough of comfort built-in, courtesy to some Goodyear 700 x 40c tires, a plush saddle, and ergonomic grips. It doesn't have as many features as some of its more expensive city e-bike competitors (which typically use larger capacity batteries and more powerful motors). The city, on the other hand, manages to be both practical and easy to live in with a get-around-town bike.
