Where it sells

The store's terms name Priority Outdoor Products, LLC, of 174 Hudson Street in New York, as its operator.
Its electric range of belt-drive cruisers and commuters ships from a Pennsylvania warehouse to the contiguous US only.

Description

The Priority E-Coast is a single-speed belt-drive electric beach cruiser with a 576 Wh removable battery in its integrated rear rack and a 500 W rear hub motor (torque not published).

It has hydraulic disc brakes with motor cut-off, a rigid aluminum fork and 3.0 in wide tires, with a cadence sensor, five assist levels and a twist throttle. It ships set to 20 mph, and the display can raise pedal assist to 28 mph while the throttle stays at 20 mph.

Priority lists it at 56 lb and rates it for 300 lb combined rider, bike and cargo. Fenders, a rear rack and front and rear lights with a brake light come fitted. Priority claims 20 to 60 miles of range. The step-through frame sells at the same $1,999.00 as the diamond frame, in six colours between the two frames.

A 48 V charger sells separately for $79.99.
