    I’m not an expert, but I’ve heard that Rad bikes are good for their price, and they have been touting the safety of their batteries. (Rad is not the cheapest, but is not as expensive as the high-end bikes.)

    I wanted a cargo bike to transport my kid, and I wanted a mid-drive since I’m told the motor assist on that type of drive feels more natural. So I went with a Tern.

      I picked up a lectric xpeak that comes with an extra battery. Makes for a fun ride to work, weather permitting.

      I had a rad mission that was pretty good. They don’t sell that model anymore. Rad bikes are pretty chonky though so not really good for apartment living imo.
