Lectric XP 2.0 Step-Through review: The best bang-for-your-buck electric bike gets even better!

by Micah Toll

I’ve long called the Lectric XP 2.0 the best bang-for-your-buck electric bicycle because it offers so much utility and performance for its modest $999 price.

And with the step-through version of the e-bike, Phoenix-based Lectric eBikes has made the popular two-wheeler more accessible than ever before.

The Lectric XP 2.0 is the follow-up to one of the most well-known budget electric bikes of the last few years, the Lectric XP.

The team behind the e-bike started as a three-man garage company in 2018 but quickly shot to fame, selling over a hundred thousand e-bikes amounting to hundreds of millions of dollars.

And that shouldn’t come as a surprise. With many e-bikes costing several thousand dollars while offering mid-level performance, the Lectric XP 2.0 lets riders hit the highest speeds allowed by law while maintaining an extremely fair $999 price.

Little package, big deal The Lectric XP 2.0 comes with so many upgrades that it’s hard to keep track of them all.

The new suspension fork offers a hydraulic ride that softens big bumps and smooths out rough trails.

The new 3″ tires provide a more nimble ride while maintaining enough air volume for comfortable cruising on nearly any terrain.
