The Engineering

Comfort Cruiser, With More Muscle

Relaxed Step-Through Frame

Relaxed Step-Through Frame

Upright · 330 lb payload

Easy, Upright Ride

The same low step-through, upright cruiser layout as the Pace 4 — relaxed, approachable and easy to get on and off.

Higher 330 lb Payload

A higher 330 lb payload than the Pace 4 gives more headroom for heavier riders or a bit of cargo.

Comfort Touches

A suspension seatpost and swept-back ergonomics keep longer rides comfortable.

750W Boost Hub

750W Boost Hub

750W nom · 1188W peak · 1440W Boost

More Power Than The Pace 4

An upgraded 750W hub peaks at 1188W (1440W in Boost), so climbs and starts feel easier and more confident.

Up To 75 Miles

A 733Wh battery covers up to 75 miles between charges.

Regenerative Braking

Regen braking recovers a little energy and adds extra stopping control on descents.

The Bike Cave Verdict

Ben's Take

The Pace 5 REC is the comfort cruiser for people who found the Pace 4 a touch gentle. It keeps the easy step-through frame and upright position but adds a stronger 750W hub that peaks at 1188W — 1440W in Boost — so climbs and getaways feel more effortless, plus a higher 330 lb payload, regenerative braking and a fuller ACU smart system with a rear-wheel lock. The five colours, including Sakura and Koi, give it real personality. At $1,599 it's a small step up from the Pace 4 for a useful bump in muscle and security. I haven't ridden it on camera yet, but as an easy-going cruiser with a bit more grunt it looks like a likeable bike. Full review to come.
