Bought this as a replacement because my last bike got stolen- it was the previous model of this bike. I can't lie, the feeling of riding this bike almost makes me glad my old one was stolen! The bike feel improved in a number of key ways - better computer system, great display, better fenders, better motor, better pedals, stronger front axel, and brighter front light. I am an e-bike novice. I use it to commute (roughly 50 miles a week), so I will leave all the tech/spec reviews to the actual bike people out there. So far I've had it for a week, and have gone about 100 miles (mostly on paved roads). Pros: Goes up to 28mph, and wow is it fun! Upgrading to a Class 3 is pure joy. Easy to cruise at around 25mph on turbo mode, but on any other modes you're probably gonna go around 18-20mph. It's a really smooth ride, not jerky at all. The wheels are also quite nice- chunkier than the previous model so I feel nice and sturdy on the road, but I can still put it on the bus. I love the computer feature too, it's awesome being able to plug a route onto my display and not have to worry about checking my phone. Also super happy to know the range I can go with each mode. That's crazy helpful. Cons: The battery is annoying. The range is about the same as the previous model, so you have to charge it about two or three times a week if you're going 6-7 miles a day. To get the battery out, you need to pop the latch using a tool (I use an Allen wrench) but having to carry around another tool and awkwardly shove it into the bike is annoying. Getting it back in is also a pain, but it IS getting easier the more I have to do it. The seat is also wicked uncomfortable, especially compared to the older model and I will be replacing it ASAP. Small complaint, but there's nowhere big enough to mount a bike lock on it so that's a bit frustrating. The people at REI are the best. Gordon and Gage (Maine REI) answered all my questions about the bike, I spent a ton of time deliberating and they were super patient and knowledgeable about the whole process. I had to get all new bike gear (stolen) and they made that process awesome. Cannot recommend REI enough for helping me get back to biking!!

Only good for low speeds, not a commuter bike.
Mark

Shakes badly at commuting speeds so that is something to consider. So bad that my knees hurt even after just a 4 mile ride. I've been riding this bike daily for the last 10 days, so I waited to give a real review. But at low speeds, like when you test ride it, it acts great! So if you are looking to bike around slowly, on very flat ground only, and with no wind, then this is not a bad choice. Bike also has a violent speed wobble if you take your hands off the handlebars for a second, literally, so be careful because it will throw you in just a few seconds guaranteed. A bit of wind or a small incline, and it feels like strong haptic feedback tearing at your knees and I am under 40 years old, and have commuted to work daily since 2012. The reason for two stars is that this bike does have some upgraded features compared to the e2.1 which I have had for 3.5 years without a single issue while riding daily. Basically the bike is upgraded nicely except the actual pedal support system which is not acceptable. Additionally, the speedometer significantly overstates the speeds so it will show you went farther and faster than reality. No matter how you adjust the wheel size, you can't get it within 10-15% of reality using multiple testing options. (This will make you bike worth less if you ever need to sell it, and maintenance intervals are off) Other little nits: 1) Random warning whenever you start the bike won't go away until you press a certain button even if you are traveling down the road. (I can't imagine the purpose of this distraction) 2) Bike is loud compared to other mid drives. 3) Nobody can explain how the axels work so changing a tire might be a real challenge. I took it into the Flagship store in Seattle and nobody would help. I'll try another store if I leave the area. This is my primary transportation so obviously I can't just "drop it off".

An excellent bike

1 week ago

A reviewer who left a 4 star review commented that "you can only check the battery level by slipping a flat bar between the sheath [of the battery compartment] and battery to press the battery check button (yes, it's hidden where you cannot see it or press it with your finger)." This has not been my experience. While removing the battery is one way to check the battery level, there are three other, easier, methods: 1) look at the battery level indicator on the "on" switch; 2) look at the battery level indicator on the Kiox screen on the handlebars; and 3) look at the battery level indicator on the app on your smart phone. That said, I have one observation. The kickstand plate which attaches the kickstand to the bike frame is secured by a bolt which screws into that kickstand plate. There is no additional nut. I've ridden my CTY e2.2 several times a week for only 3 months now, but have found that the kickstand plate became fairly loose. I had no difficulty fixing it. My only point is that it wouldn't have needed fixing had there been an additional nut with a locking washer.

Comfy Commuter

11 months ago

Why did I buy this bike? Test rode Specialized Vado and Como in both regular and SL versions, Treadwell Neo 2, and the CTY e1.1. This one had the most comfortable handlebar/geometry, the terrific Bosch mid drive system including app, and weighed under 60 lbs. The weight distribution between front and rear makes loading onto a bike rack a breeze compared to most others where it’s heavily weighted toward the rear. Love the smooth air suspension fork and the really bright headlight. But the seat is on the hard side. Add in the 2 years of free adjustments for members, 1 hour of free shop time when adding accessories at pick up, and the value proposition is terrific.

great for commuting

3 months ago

Took me quite a while to decide what e-bike I wanted for commuting to work. After a lot of research and help from REI staff I decided to go with a mid drive. Have been using this bike to go back an forth to work about 50 percent of the week for 6 months. So far I have had zero issues and the bike has performed well. I even had the opportunity to ride in a complete and total downpour pre hurricane. On the auto setting I can get about 36 miles before I get low battery and have to recharge. This bike is definitely built for commuting but would also make a great bike for multiple scenarios outside of mountain biking.

Why I love this bike

5 months ago

After returning my Trek Fx+7 with the TQ motor due to malfunctions, I purchased the CTY e2.2 with the 625 watt hr removable battery (a must have in Spokane’s summers and winters) and the powerful Bosch Performance Line Sport motor. I’ve purchased several ebikes over the years and this is the best bike with proven technology. There’s no one thing that outshines competing brands but the combination of components makes it a well balanced and dependable ride. It’s a bike I can ride for hours with little concern about running out of battery power. The Bosch Smart System helps conserve power by providing the Auto setting when selecting modes. The hydraulic quad disk brakes, wired lights, adjustable stem, air shocks, metal fenders, and more add up to being a very comfortable ride. Combine this with REI’s local service by knowledgeable professionals and you can’t go wrong.

Love it

68 yr old male, three heart attacks over last 20 years, bypass, blah blah blah. Other than the cardio system, I’m otherwise in good shape. 5’ 10”, 163 lbs. Seattle area. I wasn’t sure I could manage a pedelec, but I have to say I love my new CTY e2.2 bike! Have only about 400 miles on it, but I’ve been able to ride much of Seattle, longest ride so far is about 45 miles. I generally stay in ”auto” mode, but occasionally hit “Turbo”. Everyone’s circumstances are different, but for this challenged geezer the bike has been great!

False advertisement

Advertised as top speed 28 mph. Can’t set it past 21 in settings. Called and went to store to inquire. Couldn’t help. I have to bring bike back to store to be looked at. Will probably just return for the hassle.

Great Bike

I really enjoy riding the bike. It is very smooth and comfortable besides the Horrible seat!! Don't leave the store without buying a better seat. Go ANYWHERE and buy a seat. Put a couch cushion on your seat if you plan on keeping the seat. Lastly....Buy a seat!!

Excellent Commuter Bike

3 months ago

After frustration from my previous E-Bike, I decided to cut my losses and replace. This bike is well built and continues to impress me the more I ride it. The Bosch system is very reliable and performs as you would expect. The frame geometry is quite comfortable. All components are quite good even if not top shelf spec. While there is not much I would change on this bike, there are 3 things I would like to see in future iterations. 1. Electric horn. 2. USB port for charging. 3. Operational brake light. The latter being nice but not as desirable as the other recommendations. Overall, very pleased

Electric turns itself off
