I've had my Roadster for six months now and I love it so much! Zips up every hill here in Seattle. Gets endless comments of admiration. It's so much fun I find myself trying to think up errands to run because I want an excuse to take it out! And the folks at Vintage are great... they really stand behind their product. If you're on the fence, do yourself a favor and get one. It squeezes extra delight out of life. read more

Vintage Electric Bikes - Sleek, classic looks nimble and agile built for the trail capable of the road - Bikes Near Me - Santa Clara, California

Going on 1000mi now on my a 48V scrambler I purchased used. I've been so impressed with the support from the team at VE. The fact that I'm still riding this 5 year old bike and it rides like new is a testament to the build quality. So if you're looking for a solid bike that will last, this is it. As far as performance, the giant hub motor lets you blow past your friends up hills and gives you the ability to get around busses and cars parked in the bike lane and move with traffic when you have to. Finally, the looks set it apart from everything else and I get compliments every time I ride it. VE is quite simply the Porsche of ebikes. read more

I Bought a So Cal Roadster in February. I picked #49 of 50. Cameron was very helpful in explaining the proper use and care of the bike then helped load the bike in the back of my truck. I hope to get back down to Santa Clara before July to get another ebike before going to Whistler, BC for Crankworx 2024 at the end of July. I will be hanging out behind Tyndal Stone Lodge in the upper village. If you are at Whistler for Crankworx 2024 stop by and chat with me and see the So Cal #49 Roadster. . read more

If you are looking to have the toy of all toys, visit this place. Electric bikes make you feel like you are 6 years old and your mom or dad just took off your training wheels. You pedal like you are on a beach cruiser on the boardwalk but suddenly you are cranking along at 18-22 miles per hour. Great for heading out to dinner or festivals, you can always find parking. Vintage Electric Bikes is a cross between a motorcycle dealer and a bike shop. The bikes are artistic, a true conversation piece. read more

I'm the proud new owner of a Cafe pedal assist electric bike from Vintage Electric. Some background: I've spent a good part of my (longish) life on a bike. Paper route as a kid/preteen, triathlons in the 80s/90s, mountain biking since the late 80s, bike commuter for the past 6 or 7 years, basically do as much travel on a bike as I am able to. I've currently got four of my own bikes, all of which I ride for different purposes. The Cafe is not only a beautifully performing bike, it's also just plain beautiful. This bike looks like a retro cruiser but performs like a race car! This is a pedal-assist electric bike - you have to pedal to make it go. You have 5 levels of assist to choose from and even though I'm an experienced road and mountain bike cyclists, levels 4 and 5 go so fast, I'm a little nervous about using them. The battery is removable in case you need to lock up for a while in a public place. I'm currently doing a 24-mile round trip commute on this bike and couldn't be happier. It's also great that this bike is locally made. The sales and development staff were awesome during both my test ride visits. If you're in the Bay Area and in the market for an ebike, and if you love bikes, I definitely recommend you checking out VE! read more

My Cafe vintage is really worth the price Goes up San Diego's Juan St ..... a very steep hill ... Easy to control ... not jumpy . Even easy to peddle on flat streets with no power Simple gearing if you want to help the motor They answer the phone at Vintage if I have a question Retro design and quality finish Not in the same league as other ebikes Great for going to Little Italy or Oid Town, Ocean Beach Around San Diego I don't want to go fast ..but if you want to ... knock yourself out .... I'm almost 80 Reminds me of my old Schwinn Black Panther when I was a kid read more

This place is so cool. Brian helped me find a bike to fit my size. I'm 4"11 and he modified the bike to make it unbelievable comfortable for me to ride. I have RA and because of this bike I can now take my daughter to and from school :) I am so excited and happy with this bike!! read more

Vintage electric came out with a line of awesome electric vintage looking bikes. I have test driven other e-bikes and this bike by far has driven past all competition. This bike runs very smooth, has excellent throttle power without even pedaling. This bike is a real head turner. Looks like a million bucks. Test drive one today, I guarantee you will not be disappointed. They have several different ones to choose from. Extremely quiet, no noise at all. The battery lasts a long time, charges very quickly. I am overly happy with my purchase. Gonna get another one soon for hubby. read more
