The Detour IE is one of the most affordable mid drive e-bikes featuring the excellent Steps system. Shimano has delivered the most compact, lightest weight e-bike drive systems on the market - it relies on a combination of torque and cadence sensing, and it's quiet! Usually rear rack mounted batteries can affect how the bike handles, but because the battery is so light, it is barely noticeable.
The Detour checks a lot of boxes for the price - it comes in both step thru and diamond frame - colors are either black or light blue.
