A step-through frame drops the top tube so you swing a leg through rather than over, which makes getting on and off easier in work clothes, with a rack loaded, or if hips and knees are not what they were. It is the most practical city-bike shape, and this page pulls together every step-through, low-step, wave and Dutch-style frame in the directory. Frames marked step-over or high-step are left out.

Common questions
What is a step-through electric bike?
One with a low or dropped top tube, so you step through the frame to mount rather than swinging a leg over a high crossbar. It suits riders in everyday clothes, anyone carrying cargo, and those who want an easier, more stable mount.
Are step-through e-bikes only for women or older riders?
No. The low frame is simply more practical for city riding for anyone, which is why Dutch-style and commuter e-bikes almost all use it. It is about easy mounting and stability, not who is riding.
Do step-through frames ride differently?
A step-through frame can be slightly less stiff than an equivalent high-step, which most city riders never notice. For commuting, cruising and cargo the practicality outweighs it; for aggressive off-road riding a high-step is stiffer.
