Lectric XPress
BikeRide finds and shows you the best prices of the bikes you want to buy. Prices constantly change and it’s impossible to compare them all yourself.
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. For example, if you find a bike for $480 that we have listed at $500, we will offer you to buy it for $432 through BikeRide. 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!

Bottom line
The Lectric XPress is a commuter e-bike available with a step-through or step-over frame. Buyers can choose a 500W motor and 10.4Ah battery base build or a 750W, 14Ah version. The 750W build comes with fenders and a rear rack. Reviews of this bike are limited, but experts praise the 750W build’s ability to maintain speed, climb hills, and accelerate quickly using the throttle. The most notable drawbacks are the lagging pedal assist activation and low-quality suspension. Owners complain of inaccurate delivery estimates and unhelpful, unresponsive customer support. Overall, the XPress’s low price may not be worth the trade-offs.Expert Reviews
