Recommendations for "pretty" ebikes
Yes I'm probably gonna get roasted for this but I'm overwhelmed just trying to Google it. And I'm probably looking for a unicorn that doesn't exist.
I'm looking for a girly "aesthetic" ebike-- something that looks more like a classic/vintage "city bike" with a step through frame (C frame or mixte frame). Not as interested in "cruiser" styles which seem to be the main options in this category. Something that isn't super bulky looking. Something with fenders, rear rack, and front rack would be the cherry on top but not strictly necessary. Something with a mid drive motor, moderate power (500w or so), gears to handle moderate hills, and possibly some suspension to handle all the potholes and road problems here or if I were to take it on more of a gravel/woods trail. And yes, I'd love if it came in pink/pastels, but beggers can't be choosers.
The closest I've found so far is either the "BlueJay Premiere Lite" (though it's way overpriced for a hub drive, and the accessory prices are just silly) and the Murf Gigi, but both are hub drives rather than mid drives. Am I missing anything else? Or is this just a huge gap in the market? Why are so many ebikes just so "ugly" (or, if I'm being generous, more "masculine" or "aggressive" styled). I know I'm not the only person in the world who cares about bike aesthetics and wants something "prettier" but also better than a hub drive!
