Many people would call this a Super73-inspired e-bike, though of course there are many electric bikes that have since co-opted similar mini-bike stylings that harkens back to the golden age of mopeds, but I would say that the fact that there is both a step-through and a step-over version of the Zugo Rhino is a big advantage. It only takes one look to get a perfect idea of what this e-bike is designed for this is a moped-style electric bike, through and through. Extras: Long bench seat, included fenders, large LED headlight and tail/brake light, LCD display, kickstand, Shimano 7-speed trigger shifter, wide range of accessories.Brakes: Hydraulic disc brakes (160 mm rotors).Wheels: 20 inches with 4-inch fat tires.

Range: Up to 80 miles (130 km) on pedal assist with larger battery option.

Top speed: Shipped 20 mph (32 km/h), can be unlocked to 28 mph (45 km/h).

See what I mean from ride video below, where I tested the Zugo Rhinos on some fun cruises. Those two attributes combine beautifully into a ride that will have you picking the bugs from your teeth after smiling ear from ear. But when you add in the tall bars and long bench seat, you get a bike that is just as comfortable as it is brawny. With a powerful motor and nice big battery, the Zugo Rhino electric bike has plenty of acceleration, speed, and range. Having spent some fun saddle time on both of them, I can tell you that the bikes give you exactly the type of ride you’d expect just from looking at them – a powerful and fun joyride that is somehow equal parts relaxing and exciting.Ī big part of the mix of a laid back and yet exciting ride comes from the combination of performance and comfort.

I finally got the chance to test out not one but two of them when the company let me put some good honest miles on the step-over and step-through variants of the Zugo Rhino. I’ve been eyeing the Zugo Rhino electric bike for a while now, especially the version in that trippy color-changing indigo paint job.
