Reviewer: John Somers
Purchased From:
50 Cycles
Purchase Price:
£695
Time Owned:

Local Terrain:

Some Minor Hills
Strengths:
Excellent Performance
Good build quality
Brakes good and silent
Excellent 3 speed hub gear
Comfortable
No rattles

Weaknesses:
Motor is a little noisy compared with my last e-bike (cheap Chinese import)
Not really a step thru frame
Front suspension is too firm - very little shock absorption

Summary:
Overall I think its an excellent, well put together quality bike which is a pleasure to ride with plenty of power and hill climbing ability whether in pedelec or e-bike mode.

Overall Rating:
(9/10)



Reviewer: Brangdon
Purchased From:

Purchase Price:

Time Owned:
2 Weeks
Local Terrain:

Some Minor Hills
Strengths:
Works as advertised. Does 16mph on the flat without peddling. It takes the pain out of cycling. Well-built. Includes lights, powered by main battery.

Weaknesses:
The top gear is a bit limited so that it is hard to go more than 20mph with peddling.

Summary:
Good compromise between a push-bike and a car. I use it for my daily commute, when I rarely bothered with my traditional bike.

Overall Rating:
(8/10)

Local Terrain:

Very Hilly
Strengths:
Can reach speeds of 19mph on the flat.cycle normally then twist throttle for some boost.can scale most hills with assistance at 15-17mph .good brakes compared to my lafree.

Weaknesses:
Motor struggles on its own it needs human input to get the best from it.rear light is too small.front  light not bright enough.bike feels small. Amber light on after 8 miles. 

Summary:
Initially dissapointed as I thought motor would power it up hill. But with human assistance it can fly up almost any hill. I cut 10minutes off my 9 mile home journey from work compared to my lafree. I will keep it but admit I would like to experience 20+ mph as on the top of the range bikes. Early days yet.

Overall Rating:
(8/10)
