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!

Summary of Reviews

We have read all expert and user reviews on the Troxus Trax Plus Commuter. In summary, this is what cyclists think.

13 reasons to buy

  • The Trax Plus Commuter is available in two builds: 750/30Ah or 500W/15Ah. Each comes as a step-through or step-over.
  • The 500W/15Ah version has switchable torque and cadence sensors.
  • A tester of the Trax Plus Commuter 500W praises the smooth, gradual throttle acceleration.
  • Experts enjoy the comfortable upright riding position and angle-adjustable stem.
  • Tests show the Tektro hydraulic disc brakes deliver good stopping power.
  • This bike comes with a rack, fenders, and lights with turn signals, hazard warning, and brake activation.
  • The rear racks on both versions can carry 100lb, and the 500W/15Ah build’s rack is MIK-compatible (55lb capacity with MIK accessories).
  • Reviewers appreciate the gearing range, which allows effective pedaling up to the 28mph top speed.
  • The Kenda Kwick Seven.5 tires have puncture protection.
  • The display has a USB port for charging devices, but it's unclear if this is the newer USB-C standard.
  • Battery level is displayed as a percentage, making it easier to estimate range.
  • Troxus has a well-distributed network of dealers that offer servicing and test rides.
  • Troxus offers an above-average five-year warranty on its e-bikes.

3 reasons not to buy

  • One tester complains that the turn signals are hard to reach while riding, and they don’t self-cancel.
  • A reviewer of the 500W/15Ah build says the motor sends uncomfortable vibrations through the saddle when riding at higher speeds.
  • Troxus provides some inconsistent specifications for this bike.

Bottom line

The Trax Plus Commuter is a city bike with one build for typical commuters (500W motor/15Ah battery) and another (750W/30Ah) for those seeking big power and range. All reviews are of the 500W version. The 750W/30Ah combination seems excessive for most commuters; not only does the 500W cost thirty percent less, but it has switchable torque and cadence sensors and MIK compatibility, making it the better value of the two. Complaints are minimal, but the testing isn’t very thorough. The comfortable ride and useful accessories match the Trax Plus Commuter’s purpose, but it’s still significantly more expensive than many competitors.
