We search for prices on over 120 bike retailers to guarantee that we find the lowest prices – to save you time and money.
It’s a promise we stand behind: If you find a lower price on a bike elsewhere, we will sell it to you for 10% less.

The bike must be the same color and size, sold in the US and not include the use of a coupon.
If you find a lower price, email us at [email protected] with documentation of the price. We’re committed to making sure that the cost of a bike does not keep you from cycling!

Summary of Reviews
We have read all expert and user reviews on the Cannondale Treadwell Neo. In summary, this is what cyclists think.
15 reasons to buy
- Cannondale offers the Treadwell Neo in three builds: Neo, Neo 2, and Neo 2 EQ. The 2 and 2 EQ are available in step-over or Remixte (step-through) frames.
- The EQ (equipped) model has fenders, lights, and a front basket rated at 22lb.
- Several testers think the Treadwell Neo doesn't look like an e-bike due to the smooth integration.
- The Treadwell Neo charges full in just three to four hours.
- Many riders praise the fast-rolling 47mm Maxxis DTR-1 tires, highlighting the smooth ride feel and ample grip, even on wet cobbles.
- Riders agree that the tires, saddle, and suspension seat post combine to provide a very comfortable ride.
- One tester says the Herrmans front and rear lights on the EQ build are excellent.
- Riders like the Intellimount handlebar stem, which makes it easy to mount a smartphone to the bike.
- A reviewer is impressed by the smooth, progressive assistance from the Neo 2's Hyena hub motor and torque sensor.
- At around 40lb, the Treadwell Neo is relatively light, and users note how easy it is to ride without assistance.
- Two testers mention that the fenders are securely mounted and sturdy.
- Several reviewers like the aesthetics of the bamboo deck on the front cargo rack.
- Reviewers find the Treadwell Neo to be light, nimble, and fun to ride.
- The riding position is comfortably upright, in the view of two experts.
- Several riders appreciate the extra stability afforded by the wide BMX-style handlebars.
5 reasons not to buy
- Multiple testers mention that the Treadwell Neo doesn't produce the range and power found on similar e-bikes.
- Reviewers are disappointed that the Treadwell doesn't have a standard LCD-screen display.
- This bike doesn’t have a rear rack or mounts to install one, frustrating two experts.
- One expert notes that the battery can't be removed, so charging may be inconvenient.
- The position of the Neo 2 EQ's headlight makes it easy for cargo in the basket to block it.
Bottom line
Cannondale’s Treadwell Neo is a line of agile and lightweight e-bikes. According to one expert, this bike has an attractive combination of pricing, looks, and practicality. The Treadwell Neo offers smooth electric assistance but has modest power and range. Thankfully, it's comfortable and easy to ride even with the motor off. The non-removable battery can make charging inconvenient, and there are a couple of minor design quirks, but reviewers appreciate the build quality, comfort, and functionality. Overall, riders of the Treadwell Neo agree it is a strong choice for commuting, shopping, and short-distance touring.Expert Reviews
