Bottom line
Blix’s Sol Eclipse is an electric beach cruiser with a “powerful” 750W motor and eye-catching style. Testers say responsive, easily controlled power and relaxed handling make it ideal for beginners. The bike is praised for its comfortable, “fun” ride and solid range. However, the Sol Eclipse is somewhat heavy. Additionally, experts note a lack of power at assist levels 1 and 2 and see the always-on throttle as a safety risk. That said, the Sol Eclipse earns high marks and is deemed a “solid” e-cruiser option at this price point.Expert Reviews
