Be sure to get a front LED light for night rides, along with the LED bright red tail light. The both are brights, plus the pulse fast or slow, to draw better attention to yourself by other riders/drivers. They are a must have for #Ecotric bikes.
I bought my Hammer about 5 years ago when they advertised it as a 1000 watt bike. I put over 1200 miles on it and love it. My other bike is a AWD 3000 watt peak monster and I still prefer my hammer. I had to replace the 48 volt 13 AH battery that went bad after 4 years, ( not complaing here ). I replaced it with a 52 volt 22 ah monster of a battery that fit in the old battery holder with no mods. Now I get to 28 MPH on a level road with peddling and a fresh charge. Thank you Ecotric for making a great fun reliable powerful cruser bike.
If you buy one make sure to get the fenders, It keeps me a lot cleaner.

I bought my Ecotric Peacedove back in the summer of 2020, thinking it would be a fun, affordable way to test out whether an e-bike would even fit into my lifestyle. Fast forward to summer #5 with this thing, and I’ve easily put over 4,000 miles on it and it's still going strong!
What started as a “let’s see if I even use this” kind of purchase has become one of the best investments I’ve made. In the summers I commute to work on it regularly, and it honestly takes the same amount of time as driving except I’m not sitting in traffic the whole way, which is a huge win. It’s also become my go-to for grocery runs, beach days, and just cruising around town.
One of my favorite things? My dog rides in a plastic milk crate on the back. I know it sounds ridiculous, but it's the best setup, and the Peacedove handles it like a champ.
Of course, after five years of riding it hard, it’s showing some wear and tear. I originally thought it’d last me a couple summers max, but it just kept going. Now that I’m looking to upgrade, it’s actually tough to find something I like as much. A lot of the more expensive bikes I’ve been researching don’t really compare, which says a lot for what a great value this bike has been.
If you’re on the fence about getting an e-bike or don’t want to spend a fortune right out of the gate, I can’t recommend the Peacedove enough. It’s simple, reliable, and surprisingly durable. Definitely exceeded all my expectations!

PS: Ecotric, if you want to hook me up with a new bike I wouldn't be mad about that at all 😉 We love this bike!
