Q: What should I look for in an electric city bike?
A: First, you always want to make sure your e-city bike is UL compliant so it can be safely charged and stored. All Trek and Electra e-bikes are compliant to the UL 2849 standard. Next, you'll want to look for a quality e-system from a reputable manufacturer like Bosch, Hyena, or TQ. Those companies provide long-term service and support for their products so your investment can last. Finally, you want to look for quality components like front shocks, drivetrains, brakes, and wheels designed to withstand the force and weight of an e-city bike.
