Who We Are

Independent, rider-first journalism for the electric riding community.

Our Mission

BikeEffect exists to help riders make informed decisions about electric bikes, e-scooters, and bicycles. We publish expert reviews, in-depth buying guides, breaking industry news, and practical how-to content — all written by experienced riders who test every product we cover.

Editorial Independence

Our reviews are independent and not influenced by advertisers. We purchase or borrow products for testing, and our editorial team has full control over what we publish. When we recommend a product, it's because we genuinely believe it delivers value for riders.

Our Expertise

Our team brings decades of combined experience in cycling, electric vehicles, and automotive journalism. We don't just write about e-bikes — we ride them daily. Every review includes real-world testing across multiple conditions, from urban commutes to mountain trails.

  • Hands-on testing of every product we review
  • Real-world range, speed, and performance measurements
  • Long-term durability assessments
  • Comparison testing across competing products
  • Expert analysis of industry trends and regulations

  • Electric Bikes — Commuter, mountain, cargo, folding, and road e-bikes from every major brand
  • Electric Scooters — Urban commuter scooters, high-performance models, and shared mobility
