The Flyer Via: An Electric Bike That Was Made For Families

The Flyer™ Via™ is new to Radio Flyer electric bike lineup and it feels like an upgrade from the Flyer M880. It’s your family’s everyday e-bike, here to help your short commutes easier and more effectively.  This Class 2 eBike features a powerful electric motor that can help you reach speeds of up to 20 mph, a long-range battery that can last for up to 40 miles on a single charge, and a comfortable, upright riding position. Every Via™ eBike comes equipped with our Kid & Cargo Carrier Hoop, making it perfect for taking your kiddos for a ride or storing groceries.

Benefits of eBikes

There are many benefits to commuting by electric bike, including:

  • Reduced costs: Electric bikes can save you  money on gas, and parking.

  • Improved health: Electric bikes provide a great way to get exercise and improve your cardiovascular health. You have the option to turn off the motor and choose your pedal speed.

  • Reduced emissions: Electric bikes don't produce any tailpipe emissions, so they're better for the environment.

  • Convenience: Electric bikes are easy to ride (if you know how to ride a bike) and can be used for a variety of purposes, including commuting, running errands, and exploring your city. There is a slight learning curve as these bikes are heavier than your traditional bikes.

Features that I love

While I enjoy the Flyer M880, there are a few things that the  Via™ just got a few things right and is made for the way I live. It’s perfect for those that come with carry cargo and even comes in a Pro version.

  • Powerful electric motor: The Via™ has a 500 watt electric motor that can help you reach speeds of up to 20 mph, making it easy to keep up with traffic.

  • Safety Features: The 5 level pedal assist will help create a smooth ride. LED Display with taillights and turn signals.

  • Comfortable riding position: A comfortable yet ergonomical design helps getting on to the bike easy. Dual Sided kickstand for loading items or children and a natural seating position that makes getting on a breeze. The step bar is also an added touch that allows your passengers to place their feet comfortably.

  • Easy to use: The thumb throttle makes it easy to start pedaling and setting a comfortable speed. Safe for riders ages 16+

  • Storage and Cargo: Carry up to 2 children (ages 5-10) on the back with a total weight load of 400lbs. Adding the Kid & Cargo Carrier XL Hauler allows you to do a bit of both!

If you're looking for a way to ditch your car more, enjoy being outdoors, and be sustainable, the Flyer Via is the perfect choice, especially with the right accessories. It's a powerful, efficient, and comfortable electric bike made with families in mind. I would even recommend this bike to people who live in walkable cities; it’s a great way to avoid using a car or constantly needing to take public transportation; with all of the added accessories, you can make it best for you.
