Bike Size Charts

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

SCOTT's Silence eRIDE is a premium commuter e-bike with an 85Nm Bosch Performance Speed motor and a 625Wh battery. It's available in two builds. The more expensive version has a Gates belt drive, Enviolo CVT hub, Magura brakes, and a rigid fork. The 20 comes with a 12-speed Shimano SLX drivetrain, Tektro brakes, and an 80mm suspension fork. The sole test is of the EVO build. In it, the reviewer praises the smooth pedal assist, comfortable ride, solid range, and responsive steering. Complaints are minor. Overall, the Silence eRIDE impresses, but at full price, it's pricey for this category.
