I bought my Ecotric Peacedove back in the summer of 2020, thinking it would be a fun, affordable way to test out whether an e-bike would even fit into my lifestyle. Fast forward to summer #5 with this thing, and I’ve easily put over 4,000 miles on it and it's still going strong!
What started as a “let’s see if I even use this” kind of purchase has become one of the best investments I’ve made. In the summers I commute to work on it regularly, and it honestly takes the same amount of time as driving except I’m not sitting in traffic the whole way, which is a huge win. It’s also become my go-to for grocery runs, beach days, and just cruising around town.
One of my favorite things? My dog rides in a plastic milk crate on the back. I know it sounds ridiculous, but it's the best setup, and the Peacedove handles it like a champ.
Of course, after five years of riding it hard, it’s showing some wear and tear. I originally thought it’d last me a couple summers max, but it just kept going. Now that I’m looking to upgrade, it’s actually tough to find something I like as much. A lot of the more expensive bikes I’ve been researching don’t really compare, which says a lot for what a great value this bike has been.
If you’re on the fence about getting an e-bike or don’t want to spend a fortune right out of the gate, I can’t recommend the Peacedove enough. It’s simple, reliable, and surprisingly durable. Definitely exceeded all my expectations!

PS: Ecotric, if you want to hook me up with a new bike I wouldn't be mad about that at all 😉 We love this bike!
I have only used my new charger once for my bike, but it arrived in a timely manner and works nicely. I figured that I would find my original charger as soon as I ordered this one, but my original charger is still missing. I'm happy now to be back on my bike.
After six years, my VORTEX wouldn’t turn on. Had a problem with my LCD 810 Meter. Purchased an 810 METER from Amazon, but they’re not all the same. ECOTRIC emailed me the electric print, and I realized that I needed to buy an OEM 810 LCD meter from ECOTRIC. Sending me the print allowed me to troubleshoot all aspects of the electronics and get back on the road. That’s why I purchased from a US manufacturer. One day you’re going to need help, and you’ll wanna be able to reach tech service.
Honestly this product is better than the ones in Amazon. The meter actually works. Is holds off from the rain longer than I have expected.
