The Segway Xyber Air Lightens Up the Moto-Style E-Bike for Everyday Riding

Segway knows their way around the e-bike world, and nothing showcases their love of mobility vehicles and style better than the Xyber line. The original Xyber brought dirt-bike attitude and serious performance to Segway’s e-bike lineup, and now the line is expanding to street riding, too. The new Segway Xyber Air takes everything great about its predecessor and makes it lighter, more affordable, and focused on everyday riding.


Velotric GoMad Compact Cargo Ebike Review: If a Luxury Compact SUV Were a Bike

The rapidly expanding world of electric cargo bikes has a welcome new arrival: the Velotric GoMad Compact Cargo Ebike. Those of us that have been riding electric cargo bikes for years know how incredibly versatile they are. Indeed, we would still be a two-car household if I hadn’t discovered my first cargo bike in 2023 (the excellent Velotric Packer 1 cargo e-bike). I loved that bike but ended up switching a few times over the years due to garage space limitations (too many other e-bike reviews) and the fact that the Packer 1 was a bit large for our one-child…


ENGWE M20 3.0 Review: This Powerful E-Bike Is a Surprisingly Good Car Alternative

As a big micromobility proponent, any time a unique e-bike shows up in my feed, my ears perk up. So when ENGWE asked if I wanted to test the ENGWE M20 3.0, an e-bike capable of reaching up to 40 mph, yes, yes, yes, and more yes. When it showed up, I double-checked the invoice. I didn’t recall agreeing to review a motorcycle, but one was listed. According to the bill of lading, though, it was actually an e-bike.


Oryxearth VRME1000-5 Lightweight Off-Road Electric Dirt Bike Review: A Great Starter Dirt Bike for Teens or Teen-Sized Adults

Off-road dirt biking is one of my favorite activities, so I couldn’t pass up any opportunity to review an electric mountain bike or dirt bike when it was offered. The Oryxearth VRME1000-5 Lightweight Off-Road Electric Dirt Bike looks great on paper, but will the impressive specs for the price point translate into a fun and effective off-road dirt bike or just one suited more for flat and gentle trails?


BleeqUp Rover AI Sports Glasses Put a 3K Camera, Safety Alerts, and Open-Ear Audio on Your Face

BleeqUp is using IFA 2026 to introduce the BleeqUp Rover, a $459 pair of AI sports glasses aimed primarily at cyclists and other outdoor athletes who want first-person video without strapping another camera to their body. The BleeqUp Rover combines a 16-megapixel camera, open-ear audio, activity tracking, voice controls, safety detection, and automated video editing in a 53-gram frame. The concept is ambitious, but the appeal is easy to understand: capture the ride, listen to directions or music, keep tabs on what’s happening around you, and leave some of the post-ride editing to software instead of your evening.


These 2 New Volkswagen Smart eBikes Will Watch Your Back with Radar, Cameras, Smart Glasses, and a Connected Helmet

The Volkswagen Smart eBike is bringing a distinctly automotive approach to bicycle safety, pairing rear-facing radar and a camera with connected lighting, optional Smart Glasses, and a crash-detecting Smart Helmet. Developed and produced by n+ under license from Volkswagen, the new eBikes will make their public debut at IFA Berlin from September 4 through 8, 2026, with test rides available on the Mobility Test Track. The idea is straightforward: give riders more information about traffic approaching from behind without forcing them to look away from the road ahead, while making the rider easier for drivers to see.


Batch eCB.3 E-Bike Review: An E-Bike Done Right

The Batch eCB.3 is a Class III e-bike that can be propelled with pedal assist to 28mph or 20mph with throttle only by the 500W Vinka rear hub motor. With 27.5”x2.4” Kenda Kwick tires, it is super smooth and quiet on the road. The Batch eCB.3 e-bike is perfect for commuting or anyone wanting a little extra zip on their ride. If you prefer a Class II, then check out the Batch eCBc.3.


Huffy Quantis Kids Bike (24-Inch) Review: A Little Assistance for the Little Ones That Comes with Some Caveats

The Huffy Quantis is a Class 2 electric bike designed for younger riders who are ready for something bigger, faster, and a little more grown-up. With 24-inch wheels, a rigid frame, a 250W motor, a 36V 7.8Ah battery, six speeds, three pedal-assist levels, and a left thumb throttle, it seemed like a smart next step for my 11-year-old son, who had outgrown his 20-inch bike and desperately wanted an e-bike. At 5 feet tall and 110 pounds, he fit the target rider well, while my 6-foot, 205-pound frame provided useful testing perspective.


Saris Cycle-On 2-Bike Hitch Rack Review: A Heavy-Duty E-Bike Hauler That Solves the Lifting Problem

If you’ve ever tried to muscle a 60-pound e-bike onto a hitch rack solo, you already understand the appeal of the Saris Cycle-On 2-Bike Hitch Rack. The included telescoping ramp means you never have to pick a bike up — just roll it on, strap it down, and go. The rack feels seriously well-built, holds two heavy bikes without flinching, and packs in genuinely useful touches like integrated wheels for moving it around the garage and a tilt-away feature that opens your SUV’s trunk without unloading.

Segway is moving deeper into off-road territory with the Segway Xaber 300 electric dirt bike, a race-inspired e-moto that trades gas, gears, and exhaust noise for instant electric torque and a surprisingly long spec sheet. First shown at CES 2026, the Xaber 300 will go on sale May 15 through select authorized Segway dealers nationwide, starting at $5,299.99. It’s built for off-road use only, so this isn’t your next commuter bike with knobby tires. It’s aimed at riders who want dirt-bike feel, electric simplicity, and enough onboard tech to make old-school purists squint a little.


The Segway MUXI Debuts as a Compact Class 2 Cargo Bike Built for Everyday Utility

The new Segway MUXI is a compact cargo e-bike that aims to deliver real hauling power to riders who don’t want a massive bike taking over the garage. Priced at $1,699.99, the up to Class 2 model is scheduled to go on sale in the US on April 14 through Segway‘s website and independent bicycle dealers. The pitch is straightforward enough: the Segway MUXI gives you room for groceries, beach gear, or a smaller passenger, without making every ride feel like you’re piloting a municipal vehicle.

Movcan V30 Max Review: The Heavy Hitter, Dual-Battery, Fat-Tire E-Bike You’ll Love (and Maybe Curse a Little)

I’ll start this review by saying that if you’re hunting for a zippy little e-bike that folds up neatly next to your IKEA furniture and glides quietly through your minimalist lifestyle, this isn’t the one. The Movcan V30 Max isn’t cute or, to quote 2024’s Dictionary.com Word of the Year, demure; it’s big, it’s heavy, and it rides like a caffeinated rhino. But if you want an electric bike that looks like it could plow through a gravel road, a puddle, and maybe a small fence without flinching, this beast might just be your new best ride.



Lectric XPeak High-Step 2.0 eBike Review: The Off-Road eBike That Handles Like a Beast

We recently reviewed the Lectric XPress 750, a commuter eBike that impressed us with its performance and value. But for those of us who need something better suited for rough trails and outdoor adventures—especially during hunting season—the Lectric XPeak High-Step 2.0 hits all the right notes. This upgraded off-road eBike comes trail-ready right out of the box with a host of thoughtful features.

Lectric XPress 750 Step-Thru eBike Review: A Fun, Eco-Friendly Ride for Commuters

Riding a bike is a fantastic form of transportation. Whether commuting in a city, riding around campus from class to class, or just riding for enjoyment, a bicycle is an eco-friendly way to travel. An electric bicycle combines the ease of traditional cycling with motorized assistance and a rechargeable battery. I was sent a Lectric XPress 750 Step-Thru eBike to try; it was my first time using an electric bike, and I loved the experience.
