Best e-bike for short folks?
Posted by SwampWitch21@reddit | ebikes | View on Reddit | 8 comments
I’m looking to buy an e-bike for my 5’3” mom…any recommendations? It doesn’t need to be quick, just reliable, and capable of going on shell roads. I’m looking to spend $2,000 or less. Any info would be appreciated!

I’m 5’1” and will be receiving my Velotric Discover 2 this week. The regular frame size is rated for us vertically challenged folks as short as 4’11”. 😎

I'm similar, 5'2 with a 29" inseam. how's the discover 2 working out for you? is it comfortable, how's mounting and dismounting, is it easy for you to maneuver? i'm thinking of getting a Discover but not sure if the price is worth it at my height and inseam

I’m 5’0” and have Pedal Dynamo 3 Electric Folding Bike. It’s great :)

Ela possui boa autonomia? quantos quilômetros + ou -? E em subidas mais íngremes? Ela desenvolve bem ou acaba parando?

Hey, I know this is a dead post, but are you still using Pedal Dynamo 3? I want to get one for my partner. How does it handle occasional hard dirt trails. but mainly concreate paths, and maybe a few hills? Thanks!!

Excellent for hills, concrete paths etc. The biggest issue is the battery life is not super great but it’s sufficient for me. I’ve ridden it over grass/ovals and it’s been fine, a bit bumpy but fine. I still love mine :)

What’s the battery like? She’s looking at 20km round trip on the bike. Would it be enough?

On a full charge would be fine, but if you use the higher speeds it drains the battery much quicker so I reserve those just for hills
