MOD Bikes is launching a new limited-edition version of its popular Easy 3 SideCar e-bike as part of its ongoing Black Friday sale, which offers up some updated features while also changing up the color scheme. Until December 1 or until stock runs out, you can score the MOD Easy SideCar Sahara for $3,499 shipped. This model would normally be priced at the new $3,899 rate that we just saw the brand permanently drop its counterpart to at the beginning of the month, though it’s also benefitting from the same Black Friday savings, getting the additional $400 slashed off its price tag. As I mentioned before, this new model isn’t just a new paint job but also sports some thoughtful tweaks to its features that further expand its capabilities.
The first noticeable thing about MOD’s Easy SideCar Sahara is the obvious colorway changeup, with its sand-beige frame and its minimalist graphics, all inspired by the 1940 BMW R 75 Sahara motorcycle. It arrives equipped with a 750W geared hub motor (peaking at 1,000W) and a 720Wh battery, while five levels of torque-sensing pedal assistance support you to its max 28 MPH speed and for up to 50 miles on a single charge of one battery. The continuing features include the 7-speed Shimano ALTUS derailleur, a wide beam LED headlight as well as the integrated LED taillight with brake lighting, hydraulic disc brakes, multi-terrain tires with fenders over each, a snap-on rear cargo rack (that is child seat friendly with a 65-pound payload), a wide saddle, a thumb throttle, a bell, and an S3 smart color display with a USB port.
In terms of functionality changes, this model differs from the standard Easy 3 SideCar in a few ways. First, the front fork has been replaced with a dual-crown motorcycle-style suspension for better weight distribution and smoothing out rougher rides. The Sidecar has also been extended a little more from the e-bike, while also being given two headlights, a taillight, a detachable seat/seatbelt, and a small cargo rack on top for further versatility. The real standout change here though, is the addition of a doggie door on the backside of the sidecar, which will likely be a godsend for older dogs that you’re taking along for the ride, eliminating the need for them to struggle over the sides.
Be sure to check out the full coverage of MOD’s Black Friday e-bike deals here, which not only benefitted from the permanent price cuts up to $1,100 but are also getting $200 to $400 cut off the new rates through the rest of the month. You’ll find a plethora of e-bike deals are discounts for Black Friday that have already gone live from Lectric, Aventon, Tenways, ENGWE, Heybike, Velotric, and more – all collected in our Green Deals hub since the month started.
