Micromobility is becoming an essential part of city life, and electric bikes are one of the most practical ways to get around quickly and with minimal effort. In this round-up, we've selected ready-to-ride electric bikes from AliExpress: from lightweight city e-bikes to powerful fat tire bikes built for off-road adventures. Our picks are based on what's actually popular, key specs (motor power, battery capacity, wheel size), and how well they fit different needs—urban commutes, country trips, or rugged trails.

How to Pick the Right E-Bike
Choose your motor based on your scenario: 250–500W is plenty for everyday city use, 750–1200W is great for mixed city and park riding, and for real off-road and hills, look for 1500W and up.
Battery and range: Most models run on 36 or 48 volts, and the battery capacity affects how far you can go per charge. Check the estimated range in the product info, but remember—actual range depends on terrain, your weight, and how much you pedal.
Brakes: Mechanical brakes are fine for city riding, but hydraulic brakes give you better control at speed and in the hills.
Wheel size: Smaller (20") wheels offer maneuverability and compact storage; larger (26+) wheels mean more stability and easier rolling over rough ground and at higher speeds.
Folding frame and weight: If you need to carry your bike into an apartment or transport it in your car, stick to folding options under 55 lbs (25 kg).
Alternative: Conversion Kits
If you already own a regular bike, you can add an electric motor kit—it's more affordable than a full e-bike and lets you customize your setup.
