The Vanpowers UrbanGlide series comes in three levels Standard, Pro, and Ultra
which we tested). The prices range from $1,299 for the Standard to $1,899 for the Pro to $2,499 for the Ultra. The increases in cost are associated with more
accommodating frame sizes, a change from speed sensors to torque sensors, a
slightly longer battery range, larger rear cassettes, a change from mechanical to
hydraulic brakes, and adding suspension to the seat post. The table below uses
data from the Vanpowers website and shows the exact differences:
The Vanpowers UrbanGlide-Pro E-Bike comes in two sizes, small which
accommodates riders 57" to 5'g" and large which accommodates riders 5'7" to
6'3". Ordering one is further simplified by the up to 6-year warranty, free shipping.
and hassle-free payment plans offered by financing partner Klarna.
While the site lists 14 hours a day 7 days a week customer phone support, we
called and got an error message. We also realized that the "live chat" is just for
intake. Nobody is there to chat you back in real time.
When testing the bike with pedal assist off to simulate a dead battery, we
identified an opportunity to smooth out the pedaling experience in the next
generation of the bike.
Circling back to the things the UrbanGlide-Pro does right, the 48V removable
battery's position in the downtube adds to the bike's overall stability and low
center of gravity. The low center of gravity makes the bike a joy to wiggle around
corners. When pedaling, the battery provides roughly 60 miles of range. The
battery charges using a standard wall outlet.
