Class: The brand page doesn't print a class. Assist runs to 28 mph, so it's Class 3 by speed only. E-bike laws by state

Our take
The Tesoro Neo X 1 is a 28 mph Bosch touring bike with a large 750 Wh battery, a front fork and suspension seatpost, and 203 mm rotors. At the $2,999 sale price (down from $4,600) it's strong value. Cannondale doesn't publish the weight, and the page contradicts itself on the motor and range.
