The Roadster by Vintage Electric is an electric bike designed to function like a bike/motorcycle hybrid. It has a unique retro aesthetic that is intentionally more suitable for a motorcycle than a bicycle. But this high-performance e-bike is just as aesthetically pleasing as it is joyful to ride.
The unique cafe racer aesthetic was intentional, but there is nothing "vintage" about the way the Roadster rides. It boasts a powerful motor, reliable brakes, smooth tires, a long-lasting battery, and so much more. This is easily one of the best-designed e-bikes on the market, but it comes with a pretty hefty price tag. 	


The Vintage Electric Roadster can zoom past the competition thanks to its high speeds, but is it worth the high cost? Find out in our in-depth guide!

The Roadster by Vintage Electric isn't cheap, that's for sure. However, its big price tag comes with a lot of impressive and entertaining features. From a sleek retro aesthetic to an adrenaline-pumping top speed, the Roadster can be considered well worth its cost. 
But ultimately, it comes down to your personal preference as to whether this e-bike is worthy of your hard-earned cash.


Review: Vintage Electric Roadster


"The Vintage Electric Roadster is unlike any e-bike I’ve ever ridden. Where other mopeds or motorcycle-inspired e-bikes tend to look like something a tanked bro would ride down Venice Beach, this feels entirely more classy." Parker Hall, [Wired](https://www.wired.com/review/vintage-electric-roadster/)
