As with all of the company’s e-bikes, the Coston has a 250W rear hub motor which delivers back speeds of 20mph with either the throttle or pedal assistance. By using the 7-speed drivetrain you will be able to get the most out of your motor and battery.

As reviewed, the bike didn’t have much in the way of storage, but other models have a rear rack and even storage in the seat.

I understand that I’m a big guy, and I’m also about 50 pounds over the maximum advertised weight for this bike. I was probably never going to get 35 miles out of this or any other bike. That being said, I also didn’t get much extra range beyond miles, even after I set the pedal-assist at level 3. In the past, the range you got depended on how much work you were willing to put into it.

Remember that these sizes are a general guide and bike sizes can vary between riders and bikes. The battery locks in under the frame of the bike, and the front wheel/fender tended to get in the way when removing or reinstalling the battery. One feature I liked was a secondary tab you need to retract to remove the battery. That way, when you unlock the battery it doesn’t just fall out. Some thought was put into the idea there and I appreciated it.
