Product Description
  • A cutting-edge e-bike with a 720Wh battery, upgraded comfort, and advanced features, all at an unbeatable value. Reliable, versatile, and built to last. Note: Can only be shipped via Ground to the USA
  • Smooth power PLUS More comfort & control adds up to make the CURRENT PLUS THE most versatile BELT DRIVE E-Bike
  • Whether commuting or touring, the Current PLUS is the perfect everyday E-Bike in a low maintenance, easy-to-ride package
  • A long-lasting 720Wh battery, upgraded motor firmware, and now with throttle control, the Current Plus is designed for riders who want an effortless yet powerful experience. Its enhanced stability, increased battery life, and optimized components make it ideal for both urban commuting and weekend adventures.

You have to be a CostCo member and order by clicking through to the Priority Bicycles storefront at https://costconext.com/.

The Enviolo continuous internally geared hub is also available for $200 more.

I've been following this ebike and this is the lowest price that it's ever been. The hydraulic brakes, belt drive and internally geared hub mean that the bike is maintenance-free for its first 2000-3000 miles. This is perhaps the highest quality belt-driven bike you can buy with a 720Wh battery, short of the $5,250 Specialized Turbo Vado 5.0 IGH.

See https://costconext.com/ for more.

Other nice things about this bike that combined make it pretty much without any peers:
  • 500W nominal motor and crazy torque
  • Well-reviewed torque sensor
  • Relatively light at 54 lbs
  • Optional range extender battery
  • Unlockable to class 3 and it has the gearing to back it up
  • Up to 20mph throttle!
    • The old Priority Current model didn't have a throttle.
    • You won't find a throttle on the highest-quality eBikes like Specialized Turbo Vado 5.0 IGH or Gazelle. Their manufacturers like to emphasize the sporty/healthy/active aspects of their bikes, and throttles don't fit into that picture. The Yamaha, Bosch and Brose motors that they use don't support throttles at all.
The biggest downside is the lack of any front suspension, but the tires are big enough to absorb a lot of chatter, so it isn't a deal killer. The bike isn't the prettiest and the cable management and display are kind of ugly. You can go direct to the product page (with the high retail price) here:

I know the website mentions a range extender, but the link on their page doesn't go anywhere useful, and I couldn't find it in their list of accessories.

I think that it's temporarily unavailable:

If you want a hybrid style mid drive, you aren't going to get a better deal unless you find something on Upway.co.

With the right kid seat, sure. It's got the threaded receiver for it.
