Electric Original Equipent Manufacturers – Check Endless Sphere for user reviews. Wow! We’ve seen nothing short of a revolution in the e-bike market since Bicycle-Power’s inception in 2002. For those seeking cutting edge, look for a mid-drive bike that you can run through the gears. Also, there are many hub motor bikes that are practical and economical.
