Beach Cruiser Electric Bike Reviews
All beach cruisers are rated on Tower's 100-point eBike scale.
Beach cruiser electric bike shopping can be overwhelming. With so many different brands, styles, and attributes to compare, finding a beach cruiser eBike that perfectly matches your needs can be difficult.
Electric beach cruisers are one of the best form factors for eBikes in that they provide a comfortable upright riding position with cushy tires and usually a comfortable bike seat. In beach towns, regular beach cruisers have been considered transportation forever and that's why they're built for comfort and cruising. As you tend to go longer distances on electric bicycles, this style of bike makes for a great eBike ride.

Beach Cruiser Electric Bikes In Rank Order
Electric Beach Cruiser of Highest Distinction
Electric bikes scoring between an 86 and 100 are designated as "Beach Cruiser Electric Bikes of Highest Distinction". With "very good" e-Bikes rating in the 60 range, understand our structured scoring system sets a very high bar for this highest grouping. Very few beach cruiser eBikes qualify for this class.
Outstanding Beach Cruiser Electric Bike
Electric beach cruisers scoring between 71 and 85 are awarded the Tower eBike status of "Outstanding Beach Cruiser E-Bike". While this is the 2nd tier in our classification, these electric bikes are what most consumers and manufacturers consider very premium quality electric beach cruisers.

Very Good Beach Cruiser Electric Bike
Beach cruiser electric bikes scoring between 56 and 70 on Tower's 100-point eBike scale are considered "Very Good Electric Beach Cruisers". Understand the eBike market in general has an extremely wide range in terms of quality so we use the full breadth of our 100-point scale to rate electric cruisers effectively. For this reason, a score in the high 60s is still considered a very good ebike. This isn't like high school letter grading where a 60% is a low D. A 60 on our scale is still a very good quality electric bike. If you get something in the rating range, you will still have a good electric bike but you are getting close to the distinction line of what separates quality beach cruiser electric bikes from the rest.

Mediocre Beach Cruiser Electric Bikes
Electric beach cruisers scoring between 41 and 55 on Tower's 100-point electric bike rating scale are what we consider to be "Mediocre Beach Cruiser eBikes". While you might be able to pick these up for what seems like a good deal, usually with this classification of electric beach cruisers there are some major tradeoffs on the quality, performance, and durability front.

Not Recommended Electric Beach Cruisers
eBikes scoring between 0 and 40 on Tower's 100-point electric bike rating scale are what we consider to be "Not Recommended Electric Beach Cruisers". Our rating system is a very structured rating system designed by eBike mechanics with decades of experience in the bike and eBike industry, so when in addition to getting an electric beach cruiser with a lot of questionable components and quality trade-offs, when you see a eCruiser in this classification group you can expect to have a lot more regular maintenance issues to deal with it.
