City Commuter: Platinum Edition

My wife and I took a ride out in La Jolla over the summer, and we loved these bikes and the dealer (Pedego Electric Bikes La Jolla), we bought some new bikes and had them sent to Chicagoland! Real quality bikes with a great ride. I can't wait until spring comes again to get in more riding!

On February 14, I will turn 70. My wife and I both bought Pedegos in San Diego a few months ago. We live above 9,000 feet in Colo. We raised our family in Denver. I rode my regular bike to work regularly Over 10,000 miles total.

When we moved full time to the mountains most of our bikes (tandem, road and mountain bikes)sat idle most of the time.

But the Pedegos have made biking fun again.

After reading numerous reviews of electric bikes on line, I decided on the pedego city commuter. after reading up on the choices I decided to treat myself and go with the model I felt offered what I was looking for. Never thought I would be so pleased with my choice. I never owned an electric bike and was happily surprised with it's power and ease to operate. Thank you pedego for an outstanding product.

I've had my Pedego Black edition for 6 months now and it's an amazing bike. I ride the PCH in San Diego 3 times a week for about 40 miles and it's a breeze and a workout. I've had several e-bikes in the past and this by far is the best. The customer service after the sale has treated me just as well as when I was buying the bike and for that reason I'll always be a Pedego customer for life.

We visited some friends in Florida last summer who had Pedego Commuter bicycles. They talked us into renting a couple from their dealer in Dunedin. We really enjoyed the experience and started researching what was available. We also have an RV and started noticing that a number of RVers had electric bikes for short commutes from their campsites. After checking out all of the brands available we decided that the City Commuter Black Edition was the best fit for us. Pedego of Topeka (an awesome dealer) delivered our bikes the first week of December. Even though the weather in Kansas City has been horrible this winter we've been able to put just under 100 miles on the bikes in the last six weeks. We live in a hilly area and it's really a joy to ride up and down the hills with little effort and have found that it's a great way to exercise our 66 and 71 year old legs. Next week we are loading them up on our RV and heading south for the rest of the winter. We know that our Pedegos will greatly enhance our life on the road. We had no idea getting from one place to another and than back could be so much fun.

I have had 2 Pedegos over the years and just love the brand! It makes taking a long ride so enjoyable. Time is important to me and when you do something you should enjoy it...as they say life is short. When I'm on my bike there is great sense of freedom. And if you really want to enjoy yourself, rent one when you're traveling. My wife and I rented a couple while visiting on Martha's Vineyard and had a great time. What a way to see the island!
Hello Fun!!!!

I purchased my City Commuter in 2014 in California. Triangle Store is now my local shop, and they keep my bike in brand new condition. 5K+ miles and I expect that to go up as my kids are constantly riding it now. Great store and I appreciate the customer service from every facet of the company.

We purchased our bikes in July 2019. We now have about 2,500 miles on each and ride just about every day. The bikes are exceptional and we are very pleased. We get at least 100 miles on a battery charge and if ridden gently can get 140 miles. The only issue was the Fat Frank tires as they were worn out after 1300 miles.I called Pedego and they sent me no cost replacement tires and my dealer in Aiken S.C. Installed them free. These are high quality bikes and I highly recommend them.

Love, love these bikes.  Great ride, easy to kick it up a notch with the assist & easy to manipulate.  Both James & Jesus were wonderful to work with.  James made you feel like you were his only client.  If sitting on the fence, buy the bike!  You will love it.

I purchased the City Commuter Black edition 2 months ago and I've already put over 250 miles on it...and its winter!

I live in an urban residential area. After thinking about the typical traveling I do in a given week I realized 90% of my driving was within 4 miles of my house. I already had a bike but my city is pretty hilly so I would frequently talk myself out of riding it around town for errands. The Pedego solves this for me. Now I can use the pedal assist to help with those hills.

I decided to go with a Pedego because there is a store located in my neighborhood. This allowed me to test out various models and get the one that fit my needs best. The folks at the store are very nice. I've dropped back by to ask questions and have them tweak a few things. They are always helpful.

In choosing a bike, the City Commuter ended up being the best fit. I decided to upgrade to the Black edition because I'd read that hydraulic brakes are very low maintenance.

I can't recommend Pedego enough!

I bought my husband a Pedigo bike after his back surgery so he could ride with me as I trained for 100 mile road bike ride.  I love the fact that this bike enables him to ride hours with me every day.

I love this bicycle. I'm 84 years old and I ride 20+ miles per day. I recommend this bicycle.

This review is really about the incredible customer service I experienced at the Pedego store in Peoria Arizona.  The Pedego brand was never in question when I decided to procure an electric bike…the only decision was which City Commuter.  The short story is I bought the Black Edition for numerous reasons… the quality of the bike, the warranty and the quality dealer network here in the Phoenix area speaks for itself.  Every Pedego dealer I talked to and visited was excellent in their desire to satisfy a customer.  However, the Pedego store in Peoria owned by Steve and Sheri along with their OUTSTANDING sales associate Dwyane proved to be an exceptional experience.  For anyone considering an e-bike in Phoenix and the surrounding areas, you will miss out on a phenomenal buying experience if you do not consider the Pedego Peoria store.  As a FYI…I traveled from Gilbert to the Peoria store for my purchase due to the aforementioned reasons ( 90 mile round trip).

Got my City Commuter Black in June of 2019 and I've been using it 3-5 days a week as my daily transportation for work (8 miles each way). 1500+ miles so far and it's been great! My blood pressure is down, as is my weight. But my mood is up! Best investment I've made in a long time!

Picked up my black City Commuter platinum edition yesterday at Wheaton Pedego Electric bikes. My wife and I have two interceptors which have brought us more fun than we can imagine.
And now Wheaton Pedego provided second mile arrive setting the Gold Standard! Great team with Jeff and Andrea and Bill and Karen bringing high touch… high integrity and flat out fun to our Pedego experience! We are raving fans!
Go Team Pedego!

I'm 70 and my wife is 66 we bought our City Commuters on Coronado Island 8 years ago. Our rides are usually 25 to 35 miles long and include rides in, Manhattan, Key West, San Francisco, Hilton Head Island, Yosemite, Monterey, Austin, New Orleans, Jekyll Island, Las Vegas, LA, The Pacific Coast HWY, The Blue Ridge Parkway, West coast Florida, West Palm Beach, Greenville, SC (our home town), Washington, Acadia NP, Death Valley, Charleston, Panama City, Central and Northern Wisconsin, Northern Michigan and many many other amazing places.

Both Barbara and I tell anyone who'll listen, "These Pedego E-bikes are the best things we've ever purchased!" When we get on our bikes we can go anywhere, explore any city, ride abandoned back roads and stop to explore any interesting  thing we find. We're kids again flush with the energy that comes with new roads, sights, friends and experiences

It takes 5 minutes to load our bikes into our second Nissan NV200 and take off looking for new trails to blaze and when we're done it takes just 5 minutes to put them back in.

These bikes are tanks! Pedego Service id phenomenal and the Pedego national network is amazing.

We are thrilled with our City Commuter: Black Edition bikes. They have fabulous shocks which make the ride very comfortable. The power is excellent. The bikes are sturdy without being too heavy. The pedals sit more under my seat than I’m used to with my older Trek Townie, but I think that works better for moving the bike along/it would feel heavier if my legs were more in front. The bike has plenty of power. It also looks terrific. I’m impressed with warranty as well. And our dealer, Tom in Grand Rapids, could mot have been nicer or more professional.

I purchased the black city commuter in RSM after much research on the web regarding e-bikes. I found that pedego brand was the 0only one that not only sold a great e-bike but also stood by the product and serviced the -e-bike if and when needed. Unlike other e-bikes out their and there are many only pedego has the independent shops to take care of all my needs with service, questions and upgrades if needed. I have had the bike for almost 2 years not and if runs flawlessly. I weigh 192 and my 48v bike can get me up hills and beyond with little help on my end. Thanks pedego for a great e-bike.

Bought the bike March 2018. Closing in on 2,000 miles.

Works great. Consistently getting 45+ miles per charge on the battery.

I normally ride with the Pedal Assist set at 2. But I crank that up to 3 in the hot FL summer; lets me ride fast enough to actually keep cool despite the temp and humidity.

Lots of speed bumps on my regular route; the air suspension front fork does a great job of smoothing out the bumps.

Jason and Emily run a great store at Pedego30A between Destin and Panama City Beach.

Stop in for a test ride!

I have ridden about 400 miles on my Black Edition 28" Mag Wheel version and I commute 15 miles each way from my home in Alexandria, Virginia to Washington, DC. I have ridden this bike in all kinds of weather, including rain, snow, wind and ice and I am here to tell you this bike is the champion of all bikes. I will also tell you that this is a large bike and it has a lot of weight but it also has a lot of power. I average about 19 miles an hour uphill and I get to and from work in less than an hour. I also get 2 hours of exercise every day. I have only had two incidents and neither caused me to fall but be careful on ice and get yourself a rearview mirror. It is a life saver and I would be interested in hearing from others about the horn - bell - we need a little more power for a bell. I have ridden thousands of miles on a regular bike and I am very happy with this brand.

Bought my Pedego last June as a birthday gift here in North Florida. Fairly flat terrain changed dramatically that summer as I attended a week long music camp in the mountains of West Virginia. My City Commuter got me up and down hills all over the varied landscape of the campus. As an older guy, I don't think I could have gotten to classes, jam sessions and meals without being totally exhausted. That Pedego saved my energy and made it pure fun to navigate through the days.

My wife and I rented a couple of Pedego bikes while on vacation in California, and we had a great time. So, when we returned home (Utah), we went to our local Pedego store to test ride the different models. We both found one that worked for us and decided to invest in our health. Okay, it was mostly for fun, because these bikes make getting some exercise outside so much fun that I can't really call it exercise even though we can get a good workout if we choose--or we can rely more on the battery and just go for a cruise. What a blast!! Buying these bikes just might be one of the best decisions we've made in a long time. We're thoroughly enjoying going for a ride together touring the city and stopping at new lunch spots for a snack before exploring some more. We bought a great bike rack at the Pedego store and even took the bikes to a family reunion--back in California (ha!). Other family members had bikes, too, but our Pedegos were garnering all the attention. Everyone wanted to "take them for a spin". Each day we would take a 25 to 30 mile ride and still have plenty of battery power left. I haven't yet let the battery run all the way down, but I can easily see us getting up to 50-60 miles on a charge. The bottom line is we love our Pedego bikes! My wife and I are in our early 50's, but our children and our nieces and nephews have just as much fun on the bikes as we do--that is when we're willing to share. As I said earlier, getting Pedegos is one of the best decisions we've made in a while. Here's to many more miles on the road! I can't wait to rack up some serious Pedego Mileage Pins.

The build quality is absolutely phenomenal. I love the ride feel and the range. The customer service and follow through has been incredible.

The staff in Eugene helped me to the max on understanding the electric bike and getting the right bike. Love my bike rides now!

No matter what kind of day you are having it's hard to not smile and have an amazing time on one of these bikes! It truly is a fun escape!

I bought my City Commuter(black edition) 16 days ago, and I already have 253 miles on it!!! I love it! Best bike ever, no regrets. There is one complaint though... “Why didn’t I buy one sooner?”
