EVELO Aries Mid-Drive Electric Bike Review Part 2: Ride & Range Test [VIDEO]

August 27, 2019 by Pete Leave a Comment

After many miles of testing the EVELO Aries Mid-Drive full suspension eBike it has proven to be a high performance eBike with a comfortable and stable ride feel.

The 4″ of front and rear suspension along with the 3″ wide tires really smooth out the road and make the Aries Mid-Drive a comfortable and stable bike to ride.

The upright and easy going ride position further add to the comfortable ride style.

While the Aries Mid-Drive is a comfortable eBike it does have its wild side with the 750 watt Bafang mid-drive motor that powers through the enviolo continuously variable transmission system!

The EVELO Aries Mid-Drive is priced at $3,499.

In this second part of the full review you will get an idea of the ride characteristics, range test results, pros, cons, and overall thoughts on this electric bike. [Read more…]

Here is a concept electric bike/motorcycle from the industrial design firm J.Ruiter: “This “one horse” concept E-bike was a working sketch prototype in a series of electric thoughts. E-bikes don’t need to be bikes with motors and batteries. 34mph + single front brake + 48v 1000watt hub motor = sketchy…” Hmmmmm……interesting. We will see if this ever makes it to production.
