If the best electric beach cruiser bike is what you’re after, might we suggest the Pedego Comfort Cruiser Electric Beach Bike? As far as the best electric bike is concerned, it has one of the most comfortable riding experiences available. With its step thru design, it’s easy to mount and dismount, while the comfortable seating keeps you in an upright riding position.

Why We Like It – Pedego Comfort Cruiser Electric Beach Bike

For 10 years the Pedego Comfort Cruiser Electric Beach Bike has been making people smile, and that’s thanks to its comfortable, user-friendly build that stays comfortable for the entire 45 miles. The same applies to the balanced and stable handling bike reviewed in the Orbea gain ebike review.

Pros
  • 45 mile range; quick-charge capable
  • Comfortable to ride; user friendly
  • Favorite features for commuters
Cons
  • Lacks front headlight
  • Lacks bike fenders

Durability & Build Quality

If there’s any word to describe the Pedego Comfort Cruiser Electric Beach Bike best, it is: comfortable. Fitted over its 6061-T6 aluminum alloy frame is a firm, yet malleable seat, making beach cruiser comfort levels off the charts, a feature shared with the Pedego Interceptor. And with its step-thru design, like the IZIP E3, mounting and dismounting is a cinch.

Performance (Speed & Acceleration)

As far as speed is concerned, the Pedego Comfort Cruiser Electric Beach Bike isn’t breaking any speed limits. The 36V battery motor combo does pump out some good power; the hub motor can push the bike (with pedal assist) up to 20mph. If you want speed, the Juiced City Scrambler goes 28mph+. But if you are looking for a bike that can haul goods and people, open the Pedego stretch review.

Range & Battery

The range in which the Pedego Comfort Cruiser Electric Beach Bike can go is what we like the most. The lithium-ion battery has enough juice to travel 45 miles. And it has quick-charge capabilities, a rarity with electric bikes. That translates to about 2 hours of battery life.

Safety Features

The Pedego Comfort Cruiser Electric Beach Bike is fairly basic with its safety features. You get a rear light and front bike reflector, which is a bummer, but at least it’s something. You get a left-hand bell and integrated motor cut off switch. Wires have been threaded through the frame itself to prevent tangling, which is a nice touch.

Value

The Pedego Comfort Cruiser Electric Beach Bike is bursting at the seam with features, but several small details are much appreciated that call for its pricing (still cheaper than Raleigh Retroglide IE). The balloon tires are kevlar-belted, which prevent flats and provide a smoother ride. There’s a rear rack in the back that’s perfect for large pannier bags. There’s even options to match the balloon package, but lacking fenders.

Pedego Comfort Cruiser Electric Beach Bike Wrap Up

Despite lacking fenders and a front headlight, the Pedego Comfort Cruiser Electric Beach Bike is lovingly crafted and worth every dollar. Each facet of the bike has been given a better quality of life, like a rear rack for commuters. More importantly, you’ll get 45 miles on a single charge, with comfortable seating to enjoy the entire ride.
