We start with the kind of ride you prefer, then filter our catalog by distance, carrying weight and price band. Your load, road surface and experience help set the order of the results. If nothing fits, you’ll see why. Price bands compare the models in our catalog; follow the seller link for a current quote and allow for gear, tax and shipping.
For range, we divide your round trip by 0.55, or 0.4 in demanding conditions, and compare that figure with the maker’s maximum advertised mileage. That leaves extra battery for the gap between a range test and your commute. You’ll still need to try the route with your usual bag to see how far a charge takes you.
The calculator leaves the purchase price for you to enter and includes an editable gear allowance. We flag models with unconfirmed certification. When complete weight or mileage figures are missing, we cannot include that model in a weight or range match.
