The Midtail M880 is my favorite E-bike! The large, puncture resistant tires provide a super smooth and stable ride as I navigate the busy bike path, it even lets me ride off road through grass and dirt shortcuts like they’re more asphault. The front basket gives me a great place to put my stuff while I ride, and I have no problem getting this bike locked with a U lock when I make quick stops. The shorter length of the Midtail compared to the Longtail also makes for a more agile and fun ride, but without sacrificing comfort.

What Our Previous Happy Customers Say
Thank you to the people here at third coast cycles. My bike was loose at the handles and they were right here on the bike path to make it convenient for me to get it fixed. I appreciate that they exist!
Really enjoyed the top notch service that Mark provided. He is simply a kind soul and knowledgeable about everything bike related. We rented bikes for a week and he went the distance to make sure we had everything (brand new fitted bikes, extra tubes, tools, pump, etc.) we need to make our trip fun and memorable. Would highly recommend 3rd coast! They are the best in town!!!!
One of the best bike-renting experiences I have had. A friend and I needed to rent bikes for a few days for a trip from Chicago to Milwaukee and beyond. We found 3rd Coast which had the perfect solution: excellent rental rates, excellent bicycles (brand new – we watched him assemble them), extremely friendly personal service from a very knowledgable bike-guy!
