70 Year Olds: You Must See this E Bike! An Electric Bicycle Perfectly Suited for Seniors!

70-year-old e-bike riders, I've got the perfect electric bike for you. Stick around.

Hey, I'm Dustin. I have nearly 20 years of experience in the bike and e-bike industry, and if you're 70 and over, looking for an electric bike, I've got the best one for you right behind me. But before we get into it, hit the subscribe button below. Stay in touch with us here at Sixthreezero. Be the first to know about all the new content we're putting out, giveaways we're doing, and of course new product releases.

All right, so let's say you are 70 and over, looking for an electric bicycle, trying to figure out what's best for you, what's going to be safest for you. Look no further than the Simple Step-Thru E-Bike from Sixthreezero. Now this is going to be linked in the description, so if you want to check it out, you can click down there and follow this over to the website. Also, we've got tons more videos about this e-bike on our YouTube channel, so you can navigate through there and check out all the videos.

But what makes this electric bike so special is this low step-through frame, which is only 13 inches high. You can easily bring your foot in and out of here. Now the reason why I deem myself an authority on e-bikes for those over the age of 55 is at Sixthreezero. We've done hundreds of rides with riders over the age of 55, and you can see a lot of them on the YouTube channel. We've done 20-mile rides and 10-mile rides. We've done first-time e-bike rides for lots of riders over the age of 60. So I've seen firsthand what's good, what's bad, what kind of e-bike works best for riders in that age bracket.

And number one, having a low step-through is very, very important. A lot of times arthritis has caught up to us, lifting your leg very high is not as easy as it once was. Doing the leg swoop over the back, I don't love it. It's not safe. So with a low step-through, you can literally step right onto the Simple Step Thru and slide back, and now you're mounted and up and riding. The other benefit is when you stop, get your feet down and you can pull your foot off easily. So that alone is what I believe to be one of the most important features.

Now, this is also the lowest step-through of any e-bike I've ever seen. You may say it doesn't look like it. The wheels are big, but here's the thing, the frame dips below the crank. The crank is here. Even at the lowest point of any low step-through, the frame would be here. We've pulled the frame below that to make it even lower.

Now the other thing is there are a lot of 20-inch e-bikes and 24-inch e-bikes, their step-through is still not as low because they don't have this type of frame. They still have bars coming through here, which still require a higher step over height. So I'm telling you, this is the lowest step-through you're going to find, even with the 26-inch wheels.

In addition to that, you have an ergonomic riding position. So you can see my back is upright, and my arms are relaxed. The handlebar swoops into your body so you don't have to overextend, and your body can be comfortable. The other thing is that this has four custom adjustment points. Raise and lower the seat. Tilt the seat. Raise and lower the handlebar. Tilt the handlebars. You can adjust this and dial this in specifically to your body.

The reason we've added that, and we believe that's so important, is riders over the age of 70 everybody has different things going on with their body. Pain in some areas, pains in not areas, or no pain at all, right? But it's important that you have that custom adjustability to adjust the e-bike to you. So number one, you feel safe. Number one, you feel comfortable, and at the end of it, you avoid pain when going for rides, right? We want this to be enjoyable. We don't want there to be pain at all.

Now getting into the electronics of this. You have a 500-watt rear hub motor. 10.4 amp hour battery. So you're going to get 20 miles an hour top speed by just using the throttle, 28 miles an hour in pedal assist, and up to 50 miles of range. Now, the range is going to be dictated by the weight of the rider and also how you're using the e-bike. Are you using the throttle a lot? Are you using pedal assist a lot? Or are you using it as a normal bike?

That's another benefit that I've seen for this bike for over 70 riders, a lot of riders like to use it like a bicycle. So if you should so choose to turn the motor off, you have standard tires and a 7-speed derailleur like on any typical bike. So this is going to ride like a normal bicycle, and the wheels are going to roll easily and smoothly. If you have a small fat 20-inch tire, it's not going to be conducive to riding like a normal bike. It's going to be very difficult to pedal. There's a lot of drag on those tires, and what I've seen with my over 70's, they like to be in a very low assistance level and still get exercise. That's why I love, love, love this setup for that rider demographic.

And again, rolls smoothly. You still have a little bit of width with a 2.125-inch tire, so it's going to absorb the shock, absorb the bumps, and also still be great for balance. In addition to that, you can see these colorways are super cool and something different than just the typical range. We do have the matte black, but we also have the navy and the teal. Just something different than the silvers, the grays, and the boring colors that you see everywhere.

Now lastly, disc brakes provide the stopping power you need for ultimate safety. Don't have to worry about that. And again, it's a cruiser. It rides smoothly, and it rides easily, but you still have the power.

Again, I love this. You're looking for an e-bike over the age of 70. I'm just going to step through here and come to the front again, and if you want to see more videos on this with all different types of riders, including our over 70 riders, you can find them on our YouTube channel.
