Super73-ZX e-bike review: love and hate can be so much fun - The Verge

The Super73-ZX e-bike can be unlocked and pushed into an off-road / unlimited mode to deliver over 2,000 watts of peak power and speeds in excess of 45km/h (28mph). Hate, love, and fun describe the emotional rollercoaster I felt during the review.

One major draw of #vanlife is the pursuit of unbridled exploration. But custom vans and RVs suitable for extended off-grid living tend to be hulking monstrosities that can be difficult to maneuver in tight spaces. That means bringing along an alternative mode of transportation like an e-bike to scout the viability of unpaved roads and to explore nearby towns unsuitable for large vehicles.

I recently took a new $2,195 / €2,699 (a price that includes the tax) “Agave Green” Super73-ZX home for review from the company’s European HQ in Amsterdam. I tested the e-bike as both a city bike and scout for the Fiat Ducato campervan I had rented for a three-week kitesurfing adventure with my family through northern Europe. The Ducato is small by RV standards but still measures 6 meters (almost 20 feet) long and weighs nearly three tons. Since most of my destinations required travel down poorly mapped dirt roads, I had plenty of opportunities to test the Super73-ZX on a variety of terrain.
