Model: Kalkhoff Agattu 53cm diamond frame

Reviewer: Steve Pearce

Purchased From: 50 cycles

Purchase Price: £1250

Time Owned: 2 weeks

Local Terrain: Flat / Moderate Hills

----------------------------------------------------------------------
Strengths:
Strength, stability and quality of the basic bike. Very low rolling resistance. Simplicity and smoothness of the pedelec system. Good brakes, good side stand. Fast take-off from a standing start (ideal for dangerous junctions). Ability to climb any hill without undue effort.

----------------------------------------------------------------------
Weaknesses:
Ridiculous bell. Lights seem not very impressive but I have yet to try them out when it is really dark. Saddle not comfortable for me. The manual on the electrics and battery is good but it should also cover general maintenance and adjustment as well.


----------------------------------------------------------------------
Summary:
Brilliant machine which does everything I ever hoped an electric bike would do.

Overall Rating (out of 10) : 9.5
