Costco Soar Electric E Bike

Spotted the Soar Ektra 500W Hybrid E-Bike marked down to $999.97 on clearance (ends in.97, so once stock is gone, it’s gone).

Getting a 500W 48V e-bike with hydraulic disc brakes under $1,000 CAD backed by Costco’s return policy makes this a very strong value for anyone looking for an urban/commuter setup.

Key Specs:

Motor: 500W Rear Hub Motor (32 km/h top assist speed + Throttle Assist)

Battery: 48V 14Ah (672Wh) removable lithium-ion battery (UL Certified)

Brakes: Front & Rear Hydraulic Disc Brakes

Weight: ~44 lbs (19.95 kg) — unusually light for a fully equipped 500W e-bike

Frame: Low step-through aluminum frame

Tires: 27.5" x 2.2" Hybrid Tires

Extras Included: Front suspension fork, integrated front/rear lights, rear cargo rack, fenders, battery charger

Why This Is a Solid Deal:

Hydraulic Brakes at $1k: Most sub-$1,000 e-bikes in Canada ship with basic mechanical cable brakes. Hydraulic brakes give far better stopping power and require less maintenance.

Weight: At 44 lbs, it is roughly 15 lbs lighter than most heavy fat-tire or hub-motor commuters in this class, making it much easier to put on a bike rack or carry up stairs.

Costco Protection: Full UL safety certification plus Costco's buyer protection.
