Frequently Asked Questions

The Arroyo C5 Smart System runs a Bosch Performance Line mid-drive motor with 75 Nm of torque. It's part of Bosch's Smart System platform, which delivers smooth, natural-feeling power — especially noticeable when pulling away from stops or climbing hills.

You can expect 35 to 75 miles per charge depending on which assist level you use, terrain, and rider weight. For typical city commuting with moderate assist, most riders land comfortably in the middle of that range.

This is one of the lowest-maintenance electric bikes we carry. The Gates belt drive replaces a traditional chain — no lubing, no grease, no stretching — and the 5-speed internal hub keeps all the shifting components sealed away from the elements. Hydraulic disc brakes handle the stopping, so you're not fussing with cable adjustments either.

Yes — the low step-through frame is specifically designed to make mounting and dismounting easy, whether you're carrying bags, wearing a skirt, or have limited hip mobility. The fully upright riding position also reduces strain on your neck, wrists, and back during longer rides around the city.

The bike comes fully equipped for urban commuting right out of the box. Integrated front and rear lights, a rear rack, fenders, hydraulic disc brakes, and suspension are all built in — nothing extra to buy to make it street-ready.

The bike weighs approximately 59 lbs, which is typical for a fully-equipped electric city bike with an aluminum frame and integrated components. The maximum load capacity is 285 lbs, covering rider weight plus any cargo on the rear rack.

Yes, we offer 12-month zero-interest financing on this bike. It's a straightforward way to spread out the cost with no interest charges if paid within the term — just ask us in store or reach out before you order.
