This is the standard size of electric bike motor in many European countries and it does mean that as a rider you’ll be required to pedal more, but the upside is that it weighs less.
While the hub motor on this bike is only a 250 watt, it still moves the bike considerably well. It’s easy and comfortable to pedal, doesn’t weigh a whole lot (especially compared with electric bikes in the same price range) and offers several high quality extras that improve the aesthetic and function of the bike as a city or neighborhood rider. It offers something unique in a the world of ebikes where larger motors and big beefy tires get a lot of attention. The IZIP E3 Path is a hidden treasure in my opinion. You can see the updated E3 Path+ review here or continue reading for info on the old model which may be found used or on sale at local electric bike shops. In 2014 the motor, battery pack and control system was updated to offer more power and provide a smoother ride. This review is for the first generation of IZIP E3 Path electric bikes.
