Step-through electric bikes
Step-through electric bikes, compared.
A step-through frame has a low middle, so you step into the bike instead of swinging a leg over it. That makes it easier to get on and off at every stop, with a bag, in a skirt or with stiff knees. Here is every step-through e-bike we list up to 28 mph, spec by spec.

What to check on a step-through e-bike.
01
Payload
Add up your weight and what you carry, and check the listed maximum payload, with a margin.
02
Weight
A step-through is easy to get on, but the bike still has to be lifted at times. Check its listed weight.
03
Comfort
Suspension and wide tires smooth the ride; a throttle helps you start from a stop without pushing hard.
04
Class and speed
All bikes on this page are listed at up to 28 mph, so they fit within Class 1, 2 or 3.

Questions about step-through e-bikes
Who is a step-through e-bike for?
Anyone who gets on and off often: commuters at traffic lights, parents on the school run, delivery riders and people with limited mobility. Riders of any gender use them.
Is a step-through frame weaker?
Not necessarily. Each frame has its own limits: check the listed maximum payload of the bike you choose.
Step-through or step-over: which should I choose?
A step-through is easier to mount; a step-over frame is often a little stiffer and lighter. Our guide compares both.
