coast cycles’ ‘buzzraw’ electric cruiser is inspired by children’s american mini-bikes from the 1970s, but this contemporary version is strictly for adults in bicycle form. the extra-long saddle is perhaps one of the first things you’ll notice, as it’s sized to fit two, with a tandem design for those who want some company during their commute. the chunky three-inch rubber tires enables the rider to cruise over speed-bumps, and pot-holes awith added comfort. three gear options are possible: a single speed, an eight-speed, plus an eight-speed with an electric motor for pedal-assist, so you won’t have to over-labour your legs.

the ‘buzzraw’ comes in a variety of options, from the entry level ‘x4 8-speed’ , the mid-range ‘E250 W’ that can cruise comfortably at 30 km, and there’s even a ‘1000 W’ assisted version that can zip around at speeds of 60 km/h. coast cycles offers the cruiser with a mount-on mid drive on which the battery sits on top, which provides a low and balanced center of gravity, but, removes a large section of the storage space beneath the seat. the seat itself is very comfortable, and brings a social element to biking with a design for two.
