Priority Skyline review: A 12-speed automatic shifting throttle e-bike for a song

When I first hopped on the new Priority Skyline Smart‑Shift e-bike, I wasn’t exactly sure what to expect.

Just unveiled this month, Priority Bicycles calls it their most advanced e-bike ever, and after a few days riding it around the city, I can say they’re not just hyping it up. This thing is a seriously capable commuter machine packed with impressive tech, high-end components, and thoughtful design choices that blend into a surprisingly seamless ride.

The school isn’t far – just a few kilometers across the city – but during rush hour, taking the bus often meant sitting in gridlock for 45 minutes.
