Addmotor CityPro E-43

Commuting distance is where the Addmotor CityPro E-43 makes its case: the brand rates its 48 V, 15 Ah Samsung battery for up to 201 km on the lowest pedal-assist level. It pairs a 500 W rear motor with 26 x 2.3 in Kenda tires, a regular width rather than fat tires.

Highlights

• 500 W rear motor: brushless, with a top speed of 32 km/h by the brand's figure.
• 720 Wh Samsung battery: 48 V and 15 Ah, the capacity behind the brand's long-range rating.
• Range on low assist: up to 201 km on the lowest level (PAS 1), by the brand's figure.
• Kenda tires: 26 x 2.3 in, a commuter width for pavement and bike paths.
• Load rating: up to 113 kg, by the brand's figure.
