IZIP ELECTRIC CHOPPER BIKE UPDATE

Also note, if you twist the throttle while pedaling in pedal assist mode, it actually increases the power from 50% assist to 100% assist which helps when climbing hills. The twist throttle on the right balances out the twist shifter on the left bar and is satisfying and responsive to use. It’s not as precise as some other bikes but it’s simple, durable and inexpensive. Contained in the switch box are three LED lights that show battery capacity by illuminating green yellow and red. Once you’ve selected a battery using the switch on the rear rack you use a toggle switch on the right handle bar to select from twist and go (TAG) or pedal assist mode (PAS). The control interface on the eZip Trailz Commuter (and regular eZip Trailz) is very simple. Still, it’s a clever system that makes mounting a second battery very easy and actually keeps weight lower than other rear-mounted battery designs like the Prodeco Stride but not quite as low or centered as the e-JOE Anggun. The rear rack uses standard gauge tubing that works well with bags and panniers but can get loose more easily over time and tends to rattle. 15 pounds for the pack on the standard Trailz) and has a handle at the top making it easy to remove for charging or just to make the bike lighter for transport. It’s contained in a plastic box that slides onto the left or right side of the rear rack.

That’s not a whole lot compared to others available in the US that tend to offer 36 volts of power and 10+ amp hours capacity but it’s kind of the norm in Europe. The battery pack driving this bike offers 25.6 volts of power with 9.6 amp hours of capacity. Given that the motor requires a second chain of its own, in addition to the regular chain connected to the front ring that the rider activates when pedaling, the rear wheel can be tricky to remove if you get a flat. It’s a brushed design that’s not as smooth or long lasting as gearless might be and it has a more limited range of drive speeds (which I imagine is partially why the bike can only reach 15 mph). The motor drives a short chain that is directly connected to the rear hub. It sits just behind the rear hub on the port side (left side) of the frame and is mounted to a giant torque plate for stability. The 450 watt motor driving this ebike is very unique because it isn’t mounted as the hub of the front or rear wheel nor is it a mid-drive design. For the extra ~$350 you also get fenders, a chain guide and ergonomic grips with the Commuter. The biggest improvement over the Trailz base model is the use of Lithium Iron Phosphate battery cells verses Lead acid which weigh much more.

It’s great to see a design update with the new “Commuter” edition that extends the feature set and refines the offering. It’s a bike that makes financial sense but sacrifices quality of ride in some ways and doesn’t offer a lot of power or speed.
