We have assembled our first shipment of Ecotric E-Bikes, and are excited to offer them for sale at our shop. We especially enjoy the size, power and fun of the 20″ folding e-bikes, while the 26″ city and offroad bikes are great for commuting, running errands, or just tooling around Bloomington. They offer a great blend of performance and price value, making them a great first e-bike purchase.
Dolphin 20″ Fat Tire Folding E-Bike – $900.00
The Dolphin is one of the easiest fat tire e-bikes to mount with its step-through design and small fame and 20″ tires. But don’t be fooled, this little powerhouse has a 36V/12Ah/5ooWatt drive train, and can zip you through the toughest intersections, or up the steepest hills in town. In addition, the small wheels provide addtional torque and maneuverability in tight spaces.
Power Sport Folding Fat Tire 48V – $970
This fat tire folding bike is beefier than the Dolphin, and though Ecotric has not come up with a cutsie name for it, but they are selling fast. It has a 48 Volt/500 Watt motor and may be a bit more solid in its geometry when hitting the back forty, or hitting a Bloomington pothole or curb.
Sport Cool – Fat Tire Mountain Bike – $950
The Sport Cool has a 500W motor, fat tire 26″ tires, and a mountain bike frame, it is an offroad beast. This bike is for the adventurous, or maybe just someone who wants to feel safe around town. Electrek has a fair review here.
Rocket – Fat Tire Mountain Bike w/ front suspension $1000
This bike has a different (better for some) geometry, more aggressive with a front fork suspension and the same powertrain as the Sport Cool (36V/500W/12Ah), and so is intended for more technical back country riding. It compares well with the older SONDORS X’s out there, but new!
Starfish 20″ Folding Step Through – $750
The Starfish has a smaller frame and wheels (1.75″ tires) than the 2 fat tire bikes above, and is perhaps a bit easier to handle as a result. Perfect for zipping around town on errands, . It has a 36 Volt/350W motor, and disk brakes front and back. The rack will hold a pair of panniers, and the bike is rated for 220 lbs. payload, and it is easily transported. It is a great way to started with e-bikes both in affordiblity and ease of use.
Peace Dove 26″ City Bike – $700.00
