Find out how the E-Big City lives up to its name around downtown Toronto.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
“In terms of power, the motor will lend power assistance to your pedalling up to the legal limit of 32 km\/h. I obviously wanted to test the limit and (after a few really fun sprints) I can confirm that once 32km\/h is reached there\u2019s a marked difference in the difficulty of pedalling. It was really easy for me to see how fast I was going, as the bike has an included speed sensor and displays your current speed on the integrated display.”<\/p>\n\n\n\n
“Buttons next to the display control which of three levels of assist you\u2019re riding at. Some riders might choose a lower level of pedal-assist for narrower streets with lots of turns, or maybe when they are starting and stopping a lot. I personally spent most of the time riding this bike at max assist, successfully avoiding showing up to any engagement with even a drop of sweat on my body. My extreme laziness about Toronto\u2019s marginal Northbound inclines was no longer an issue.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
“The E-Big City has a 1 x 9 Shimano drivetrain setup, which, with pedal assist, I found was a satisfactory number of gears for city riding. “<\/p>\n\n\n\n
“For enhanced commuting, the E-Big City features front and rear rack mounts.Overall I thoroughly enjoyed riding the Opus E-Big City. The bike made commuting much more enjoyable and performed well in a range of weather conditions. “<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n For more, check out the full review here<\/em> ; <\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n
