The Giant Twist Lite is considered by many to be the best electric bike ever made (to date). The Twist is driven through the crank, and it is one of the few bikes that is easy to peddle as a conventional cycle when the power is off. Sadly the bike is no longer in production.

Now discontinued although you may be lucky to find one at a dealer somewhere in the UK. Also, from time to time the Twist appears for sale on eBay.
