ZOOZ URBAN ULTRALIGHT 250 REVIEW

The Zooz Urban Ultralight borrows its design from the classic BMXs of the 1980s and its 24-inch cruiser-class wheels bring usability into the equation too. An epically long chopper-style seat sans backrest, that also doubles up as a cover for the large removable battery, rounds out the build.

With an unmovable saddle, the Zooz isn’t exactly what you’d call practical, and neither is it a full-on BMX like the 29-inch wheeled GT Power Performer I tested back in the summer.

The Zooz Urban comes in three models – this 250W version that complies with UK electric bike laws, and two much more powerful 750W and 1,100W options. UK electric bike laws mean the latter two would be illegal to use on the roads because they’re not classed as an EAPC. For US readers, the more powerful options will add both speed and range.
