Description

The name of this bike speaks for itself, an elegant model that brings an impressive blend of a silky appearance with well-designed useful components. Assembled with a lightweight aluminium frame, maneuvering will be enhanced and less strain will be put on the rider leading to a more pleasurable ride. The stable and serene journeys you will experience make this bike a trustworthy partner for any of your necessities, whether you will be breezing through the urban streets to and from work or just popping to the shop to grab some groceries.

The 375wh battery is installed in the rear of the bike in the pannier rack, and this placement ensures that the weight distribution of the bike is upgraded as well as providing better protection from splashes and dirt. But its main benefit is the enduring battery performance, electrifying you for up to 40 miles. For additional defence, there is also a key lock for the battery so you can feel at ease whenever you park it. The battery is also removable which provides extra utility for charging as well as storage.

A low step through frame facilitates access and contributes to a more comfortable cycling position. Furthering the pleasantness of your biking adventures are the swept-up and back handlebars which will reduce the strain on your wrists and better your posture.

In terms of the other electrical elements, the bike is powered by a definitive Bafang rear hub motor system. This makes both ascending steep gradients and riding over steady surfaces a doddle, so you can take it easy wherever you are travelling to. Should you want to step outside your comfort zone then you could opt for a lower level of pedal assistance using the user-friendly handlebar display. There are 5 varying power modes to opt for, and you can also view the battery level and speed.

Presenting you with more alternatives to how you tackle your expeditions is the 7 speed Shimano Tourney gear system. This not only offers effortless gear switching but also allows you to adapt to diverse settings and terrains with purpose and flexibility. Innova puncture protected tyres preserve the longevity of the bike and stop flats, letting you face any environment with maximum confidence.

Electric Bike UK Laws

There are a few regulations surrounding electric bikes in the UK so we thought we would provide you with a summary of those below:

You must be aged 14 or over in the UK to ride an electric bike.

You do not need tax, insurance or a driving license to ride an electric bike.

To be classified as an electrically assisted pedal cycle (EAPC) in the UK, an electric bike must fulfil a certain set of criteria, including:

Pedals - The electric bike must have pedals capable of propelling it, and motor assistance should only be provided when the pedals are moving.
Motor - The motor’s power output must be no more than 250 watts (W).
Speed - The motor should not be able to propel the e-bike when it’s travelling faster than 15.5mph.

Please note that if your electric bike does not meet the above 3 points, then you cannot ride on public roads. Some of our bikes exceed the 250W limit, so these are only to be used on private land with the landowner's permission.

It is the responsibility of the rider to wear protective clothing, however this is not a legal requirement.

If you have any queries regarding this, you can drop us an email at: info@ebikesexpress.co.uk
