Our Favorite E-Bike Finds At Electrify LA

Ride1Up’s booth was constantly buzzing thanks to a wide range of models. Whether it was couples checking out the two-person capable Vorsaor commuters taking a spin on the refined Prodigy V2there seemed to be something for everyone.

Other models like the Roadster V3, Revv 1 DRTand Portola were also on display, offering different sizes, shapes, and weights to suit just about any rider’s preference.

I won’t lie, I was a little jealous our test model of the DRT wasn’t that color.

P-51 made its name with the rugged Bullet model, and it’s easy to see why. It delivers serious moto styling with standout specs: a 750W motor peaking at 1800W, paired with a 20Ah battery, 200mm front fork, 140mm coil shock, and Magura MT5E 4-piston brakes.

But the buzz was all about the newly unveiled Ace. It builds on the Bullet’s strengths while going lighter, more agile, and more refined. It features a tighter wheelbase, battery integrated into the front triangle, an elongated seat, and a new frame-embedded display.

Mokwheel brought the bold—plenty of fat tires, and bikes built to turn heads and chew up terrain. Attendees could try out models like the Obsidian, Basalt, and the foldable Slate.

Known for bundling accessory packages, Mokwheel had a cargo trailer-equipped Obsidian on hand, and also teased something new: the Onyx. It’s a full-suspension, overlanding-style e-bike featuring a long-travel fork and what looked like a 1000W mid-drive Truckrun motor. Expect a release next month.

Minnesota-based Cargocycle stood out with two distinctive front-loading trikes: the Straight (CS) and Angled (CA). Both are 33” wide—just narrow enough to fit through a standard 36” doorway.

The CS is a utilitarian workhorse equipped with a Bosch Performance Line CX motor, 750Wh battery, Enviolo AutomatiQ shifting, and Tektro brakes. It also allows for customizable handlebars (flat, bullhorn, or custom).

The CA, by contrast, is family-focused with an angled cargo box designed for kid-hauling. It offers good cockpit room and clever geometry to prevent the box from colliding with your knees during turns.

If your style leans toward ultralight carbon frames, minimalist tech, and premium design, LeMond had you covered.

The Dutch is their step-through cruiser powered by a Mahle X35 rear hub motor. At just 30 lbs, it delivers effortless riding with elegant lines and comfort-focused geometry.

The Prolog leans sportier with its more aggressive geometry but shares the same clean aesthetic, understated tech, and commuter-friendly build.

Dryft’s unique vehicle turned plenty of heads. “What is that thing?” was a common reaction.

Think of it as a cross between a scooter, skateboard, and bike. With a 500W motor, 698Wh battery, and 20 mph top speed, it’s street legal in most areas. Designed for relaxed carving or urban cruising, it has the makings of a future cult favorite.

E-bike racks are evolving—and Atlas Power Lifts is teasing a glimpse into a new evolution altogether. Their modular electric lift-assist hitch (my back thanks you!) rack supports up to 150 lbs per bike (300 lbs total), with an optional swap-out basket attachment.

It’s sleek, functional, and fills a market gap for riders who need help hauling heavy bikes—or want the flexibility of hybrid hauling. Expect availability this fall.

It’s unclear whether JackRabbit formally partnered with the show, but their presence was seemingly everywhere. The micro e-bike/scooter hybrid showed up in droves where I saw numerous Electrify crew riding around, and several people riding to and from the show on one.

JackRabbit’s OG and XG models were popular for their portability, peppy motors, and customizable appearance. The XG Pro’s 750W motor and optional range extenders make these tiny titans surprisingly capable.

Custom paint jobs and modded builds added to the brand’s fun-loving, fast-moving vibe.

A newcomer to the scene, Speedwell launched in October with a sharp-looking moto-style e-bike that doesn’t skimp on performance.

Founder Ethan (with a background in motorcycles) said his goal was to deliver a complete package—no need to upgrade anything. The show model featured 750W nominal hub motor, front and rear suspension, and Magura brakes. Gorgeous wood accents added style, and their green-and-gold custom bike was one of the most eye-catching rides at the show.

Like Kleenex is to tissues, Super73 is the household name of moto-style e-bikes. Their booth featured a few striking customs and a new variant of their S2—the Laguna.

With a torquier 500W motor and a slightly reimagined silhouette, it’s still instantly recognizable as a Super73.
