The Evelo Atlas is a bike of possibilities. It once held a Guinness World Record for assisting a rider in completing the then-longest e-bike tour at more than 8,000 miles. But you don't need epic ambitions to enjoy it. This is a bike that appeals equally to tech enthusiasts, power seekers, casual riders, or even those who haven't been on a bike in decades-it wears many hats.
Two things about the Specialized Turbo Vado SL 2 6.0 Carbon are hard to fathom: One is how light and lithe it feels as an e-bike, even with the battery off; the other is how hard it is to recite its full name when other riders ask you about the bike at stop lights and pit stops. I've tested about a half-dozen e-bikes for Ars Technica. Each test period has included a ride with my regular group for about 30 miles. Nobody else in my group rides electric, so I try riding with no assist, at least part of the way. Usually I give up after a mile or two, realizing that most e-bikes are not designed for unpowered rides.
Euphree's Solar Sparrow is one of the brand's most affordable models, but it still carries the hallmarks of a Euphree experience: comfort, style, and adaptability. It's not just their lower-priced option, it's also the brand's lightest e-bike in the lineup, simplified with a clean Gates Carbon Belt Drive that keeps maintenance to a minimum. Euphree has never aimed for bargain-basement pricing or luxury exclusivity; instead, it carves out a middle ground with well-chosen features at reasonable costs.
