Electric bicycles are a great way to exercise. They’re great for urban commutes, or if you want one to effortlessly take on hills and mountains, there are electric mountain bicycles available, too. As Black Friday nears, we’ve found countless of irresistible deals on e-bikes, including this one on the Elby Bike 9-Speed electric bike. It’s discounted on Amazon for an

incredible $1,000 off

its original price of $3,000.

The Elby Bike 9-Speed electric bike features an oversized aluminum frame with a step-through design that’s low enough for shorter people to easily get onto. It is really heavy though at around 57 pounds, so don’t expect to carry this bike without struggling. It has a black saddle that’s thickly padded, and ergonomic handlebar grips with a nonslip rubber surface. Behind it is a heavy-duty rear fender for carrying all sorts of luggage. This bike can support a maximum weight of 330 pounds.

Elby claims that safety is its top priority, and it is evident with this bike. It is equipped with extremely bright Supernova front and rear LED lights that provide extra visibility during nighttime commutes. Its tires are lightweight and puncture-resistant, thanks to high-strength nylon fabric insert. Furthermore, this bike is outfitted with high-quality Tektro hydraulic disc brakes for fast and easy stopping.

Its 500-watt Bionx rear hub motor is powered by a 52-cell, lithium-ion battery that’s integrated into the middle of the bike frame. The motor features true regenerative braking, a mechanism that allows the bike to recharge a little by converting kinetic energy (whenever you pedal) into electric, effectively lengthening its battery life. For each full charge, this bike can provide a range of 80 miles, with a top speed of 20 mph. To recharge, you can simply detach the battery pack from the frame and plug it to an outlet. Charging time is typically five hours.

The Elby is incredibly quiet, smooth, and fun to ride. It comes with four levels of pedal-assist which you can choose on the bike’s onboard console, which pairs with a smartphone app via Bluetooth. The level would automatically increase if the bike senses that you’re working extra hard on pedaling. This bike also comes with a throttle so you can go riding without having to pedal at all, like a scooter. It’s very smooth to operate and has a safety so it only turns on once the wheels are turning and provide the extra bit of kick on busier streets.

The Elby app provides you with useful information like speed, battery status, total travel distance, weather, torque levels, and so on. You can also choose your destination on the map and it will tell you if the bike has enough juice left to reach it.

Google Home Max Review

If you're looking for a great deal on the Google Home Max smart speaker this Black Friday, look no further than Walmart. The company has cut the original price from $399 to $199. The Max comes in two colors, charcoal and chalk and it is available for next-day shipping.

There are some other advantages to buying through Walmart, too. If you take advantage of the onsite payment plan through Affirm, payments are $20 per month. You can also buy it as a bundle option, as well. When paired with the Google Home Mini you save an extra $30, which typically sells for $49, but is currently $19.

The Ninja Foodi Air Fryer Oven is on sale for $153 at Amazon for Black Friday
Ninja Air Fry Oven

With Black Friday deals in full swing, it can be overwhelming trying to determine which deals are right for you. For me, however, we've had our sights set on the Ninja Foodi Digital Air Fryer Oven and bookmarked multiple merchants ahead of the shopping event to pin them against each other and make a purchasing decision based on who has the best deal, but things took an interesting turn of events when all the merchants that had it on sale began to sell out including Kohl's, Bed Bath & Beyond, and Walmart (check out more Walmart Black Friday deals here). That is until now. Amazon has just made the 8-in-1 toaster oven-air fryer multi cooker available for purchase again for $153 -- a $97 discount off the retail price of $250 listed on Amazon.

Though it isn't in stock until December 13, Amazon is allowing customers to purchase the Ninja Foodi at the promo price, and they'll ship it once they restock. Obviously, we wasted no time and hit the buy now button immediately.

Right now, you can choose to gear up with the 57-piece starter or go for the full 102-piece toolset. Both of which come in a durable blow case for easy storage and mobility, and include more or less the same tools.
