The controller is what you use to turn the motor on/off, select your level of assistance or throttle, and monitor battery level. It even controls the integrated lights on some models. It’s everything you need right at your fingertips. Easily recharge in as little as 4 hours with a standard household outlet and the included charging cable. E-bike batteries can be removed for charging or storage. To sum up, many of the Schwinn electric bikes include accessories and features that are worth hundreds of dollars, and the Mendocino electric cruiser bike is quite a rare find.
The tail light does glow somewhat, but it’s not very bright, and it goes out as soon as you stop moving. If you look closely, you can see the metal bar sticking through the wheel. Also, the switchblade key is visible, inserted into the lock.
A higher level of assistance requires less pedaling effort. Use the power button on the handlebar controller to activate the pedal assist. Use the “+” and “–“ buttons to select your level of pedal assist. We recommend starting on the lowest level of pedal assistance. Either way, all you need to do is to connect the battery to a standard household outlet with the included charger.
You’ve imagined the riding position on this bike. An interesting feature I’ve not seen before is a wheel lock. The upper horseshoe-shaped thing is a keyed wheel lock that lets you run a metal bar through the spokes. This keeps the rear wheel attached, and also prevents someone from biking off with it.
The bike is big and sturdy, but also super heavy. The bike is powerful but also discharges very quickly. The LED controls are nice, but also missing some functionality.
So, no matter how you like to ride, there’s an e-bike for you. For more information, check out our blog post on e-bike styles. Each frame is available in step-through form and includes wide tires, integrated lights, upright positioning, and a powerful motor. With every Schwinn electric bike, there is the option of using pedal-assist or throttle. Ride up to 20 MPH with the 250-watt brushless geared hub drive pedal assist motor that gives you a boost while you pedal.
Overall, the bike is pretty similar to its 26-inch wheel model. The only big differences come in the form of smaller wheels and a slightly smaller range. Now, the Healy Ridge bikes are not what we’re used to seeing when it comes to electric mountain bikes, but they are perfect for beginners. From the Coston DX to the Schwinn Mendocino, the Schwinn electric bike line-up covers anything from on-road to off-road, from a casual cruise to running errands with the kids.
As opposed to the Marshall Hi-Ten steel fork with 100mm of travel, the Coston CE has a 27.5” steel suspension fork with 63mm of travel. Other components include the 7-speed MicroShift groupset. The JAK 7 mechanical disc brakes with 180mm front rotor and 160mm rear rotor. While riding, use the “+” button to increase the level of assist as desired, and use the “-“ to decrease.
This creates the feeling of being pushed – it’s that extra boost of energy e-bikes are famous for. Battery range and top speed can vary depending on rider height and weight, and riding conditions like hills or wind. All schwinn electric bikes have a top speed of 20mph.
