Overview

If you commute by bike, you need the Schwinn Monroe Electric Bike. This bike ensures a comfortable ride that can offer exercise or ease, depending on your mood. The Schwinn Monroe makes commuting a dream.

Who is this bike perfect for?

This bike is perfect for riding around the city and would be perfect for someone:

  • Looking to use their bike for commuting. The Monroe can reach speeds up to 20 mph, making a commute easy and consistent. 
  • Want a low-cost alternative to standard electric bikes. This aluminum frame allows for a less expensive option while still maintaining a comfortable ride. The Monroe is a well-built but affordable alternative to your traditional electric bike. 
  • Looking for an accessible alternative to other bikes. The Schwinn Monroe Electric Bike is built for the average rider. It’s easy to set up and understand—no need to spend hours fussing over other electric bikes’ technicalities. 
  • Who needs to step away from the more challenging aspects of riding. With this bike, you can use the electric assistance up hills and during challenging rides to make sure you can continue riding long after you start to feel those aches in your legs.

Performance

The Schwinn Monroe Electric Bike is built with an aluminum frame. It has five levels of electric motor assist that activate while you pedal. This system allows you to get all the benefits of riding a bike while creating more speed. 

The Monroe can reach speeds up to 20 mph with motor assistance, and the battery can last for 45 miles. This battery makes it perfect for riding around the city. The battery is easily removable and can be plugged into any standard outlet. 

With an LED screen with thumbpad controls, it’s easy to see the battery life left. It will be ready to go after a charge overnight or throughout the workday. It also controls the 350-watt hub-drive pedal-assist motor. More experienced bikers may want a 500-watt, but it will undoubtedly increase the price.

The Tektro disc brakes make the Monroe excellent at stopping in any conditions. The tires have Rhino skin puncture protection. Riding in the city, you can never be sure what you’re coasting over. These tires will make sure that they stand up to all of your rides.

The Schwinn Monroe Electric Bike is made with comfort in mind. Both the seat and the grips are built to ensure a comfortable commute no matter how long your ride.

Conclusion

The Schwinn Monroe Electric Bike allows for an easy ride, and it offers a stylish design. This frame is matte black with sharp lettering to make sure you not only have the smoothest ride but the best looking one. 

If you’ve been searching for the perfect electric bike, then the Monroe is what you need. You get all of the best parts of riding, without any of the high cost other electric bikes come with. It’s time to commit to the best ride an electric bike can offer.
