Comments
The XDS E Cruze Step Over is a classic looking bike with a mid-drive motor and a large, easy to see, screen. It provides a comfortable ride, and can make it easy to climb hills when using a high level of pedal assistance. The battery sits on top of the down tube, flush with the frame, and feels reasonably secure.
