Traditional bicycle manufacturer Sole Bicycles is entering the electric bicycle turf with the release of the E-24 e-bike. The E-24 is powered by a 750W hub motor and comes in BMX styling.
Retro-style, rugged design
Sole Bicycles is an American company based in Venice, California known for highly functional single-speed and fixed gear bicycles. The E-24 is a retro-inspired e-bike which retains a classy look. It has a low saddle similar to what obtains in a motorbike. The frame and handlebars of the E-24 bear the same design philosophy as the iconic BMX. It has a laid-back look and is well-suited for the urban jungle.
The E-24 has 24-inch wheels covered by three-inch thick tires. This makes off-road movement on the bike to be as seamless as it can be. It has hydraulic disc brakes ahead of the rim brakes used in the BMX. The E-24 has a top speed of 28mph using three assist levels. It has a 48V 15Ah battery pack that delivers a range of 40 miles (64km) on a single charge. It takes up to 4 hours to fully recharge the E-24.
