- The budget 7-speed Shimano Tourney components are disappointing at this price.

- The rear brake on one reviewer's bike rubs throughout testing.
- There's no external charging port, so the battery cover must be removed for charging.

Bottom line
The Beaumont Rev+ is the premium version of Retrospec’s electric city bike. It adds a torque sensor, a bigger integrated battery, hydraulic brakes, and a color display over the cheaper Beaumont Rev 3. The comfort, smooth power, and practical accessories earn praise from testers. The battery provides good range, and the motor delivers decent Class 2 power for city riding. The ride can be harsh over broken pavement, and taller riders may feel cramped, but overall, experts feel the Beaumont Rev+'s performance and ease of use make it a worthwhile consideration.Expert Reviews
