Does Lectric Make an Electric Road Bike?

Yep! The XPress2 is built for the same outcome most road bike shoppers want: covering more ground, faster, with less effort. It uses a 750W motor and torque-sensing pedal assist to deliver that hill-and-pace boost on a flat-bar frame built for city streets, at a fraction of a traditional e-road bike's price.

What Should You Look For in a Road eBike?

Look for pedal assist that responds to how hard you're pedaling. That's what a torque sensor does, and it's what lets the XPress2 feel responsive on hills and quick starts instead of jerky or delayed. 

Pair that with hydraulic disc brakes for reliable stopping at speed and a light weight frame under 60 lbs, so the bike is easier to pedal when you want a workout, and easy to maneuver around town.

 How Much Does an Electric Road Bicycle Cost Compared to a Traditional Road Bike?

Traditional electric road bikes from other brands typically start above $2,000 and climb past $5,000 for carbon frames and higher-end components. The XPress2 Commuter starts at $1,899, so the pace and hill assistance a road bike buyer wants doesn't require a road bike budget.

What’s the Best Lectric Road eBike For You?

  • If you want the highest top speed for keeping pace: The XPress2 Commuter hits a 28 mph top speed on a 750W motor (1,310W peak) with torque-sensing pedal assist for a natural feel.
  • If you want a road eBike that can also tackle off-road adventures: The XPeak2 offers the same motor power and frame shape, but with fat tires that can take on a variety of road and trail surfaces. 
  • If you want an electric road bike that’s easier to mount: Try the XPress2 Cruiser. With the same specs as the XPress2 Commuter, the step through frame on the Cruiser makes for easier mounting, dismounting, and stability at stops.

 

Electric Road Bikes FAQ

What is an electric road bike?

An electric road bike blends the frame and riding position of a traditional road bike with a motor and battery that add power to every pedal stroke. It's built for pavement, longer distances, and keeping speed with less physical effort, whether that means outrunning a headwind, holding pace on a group ride, or just getting to work without arriving out of breath. Not sure where to start? Lectric's test ride finder can help you find a location near you to try one out before you buy.

What is the best electric bike for road use?

The best eBike for road use comes down to a handful of things beyond just top speed. 

Frame shape matters: traditional road bikes lean into that high, forward-leaning frame built for speed and aerodynamics, though not every rider needs to be hunched over handlebars to move fast, and Lectric's education page is a good place to start if you're weighing frame styles for the first time. 

For the most natural pedal feel, look for eBikes with torque sensors rather than cadence sensors. Torque sensors match the force applied to your pedals, not just the speed you’re pedaling like a cadence sensor does. Learn more about the differences here. 

Brakes should be responsive enough to react to traffic around you, and tires suited to the road matter just as much, since tread and tire type affect how much grip you get in wet or uneven conditions. 

Visibility features like mirrors and lights help you be seen just as much as they help you see. 

Drivetrain choice affects how much upkeep you're signing up for, and staying on top of routine maintenance matters no matter which drivetrain you ride. A belt drive, like the optional one on the XPLite2, skips the grease and stretch that come with a traditional chain, so it needs less maintenance over time. Keeping an eye on battery health is part of that same upkeep routine.

With those factors in mind, it depends on how you plan to ride. The XPress2 Commuter is built around a 750W motor, torque-sensing pedal assist, and a frame under 60 lbs, making it a strong fit for daily commuting and covering ground quickly on paved routes. The XPress2 Cruiser uses the same motor and assist system on a step-through frame, so it's the easier pick if you want a quick, low-effort mount every time you ride. And if your road eventually turns to gravel or trail, the XPeak2 is the all-terrain option, built to handle both.

Are electric road bikes worth it?

Electric road bikes are great for speeding up a morning commute, avoiding traffic jams in the city, and lowering the cost of getting around compared to driving. They're worth it if you want help climbing steep hills, keeping pace with a faster group ride, or extending your range without extra fatigue. The XPress2 Commuter is built for fast, efficient riding on a flat-bar commuter frame, at a lower price point than most dedicated e-road bikes.

What safety features should an electric road bike have?

Look for a bike with reliable stopping power, good visibility, and tires suited to the surfaces you actually ride on. Mirrors help you stay aware of traffic behind you, while the right tire tread makes a difference in wet or uneven conditions. It's also worth understanding basic battery safety before your first ride, since the battery is one of the most important components on any electric road bike.

What is the downside of a road electric bike?

eBikes are generally heavier, more expensive, and more complex to maintain than a traditional bicycle. A little routine upkeep goes a long way toward keeping the motor, battery, and drivetrain in good shape year over year. Lectric's lighter models, like the 49-lb XP Lite2 and XP4, are built to narrow that weight and price gap.

What's the difference between a traditional road bike and the XPress2?

A traditional electric road bike uses drop handlebars and a road racing frame built specifically for pavement speed, usually starting above $2,000. The XPress2 uses a flat-bar commuter frame instead, trading some of that racing posture for an upright ride, at a price that starts well below that.

Is there an electric road bike that can also go offroad?

The XPeak2 takes the frame shape of road bikes and the drive system of electric bikes then adds fat tires and an RST front fork. These give it the traction and cushion to handle looser terrain when you want to leave the road behind, plus they make the ride even more comfortable.
