It will depend how hilly it is and how heavy you are.

Many people put Kalkhoff bikes on their motor homes without difficulty. Finding measurements of bikes is difficult but a quick comparison between my Agattu and Scott (Sub10 not an ebike) shows the Agattu is around 2" longer. Before discounting Kalkhoffs I would check if this is genuinely a...

At this price, Batribikes might also be worth a look. They have various dealers in London. What didn't you like about the Ferber? - I would have expected it to be one of the better bikes from your list.

If you want to try some out (a must before you buy), it's useful to know whereabouts you are so we can suggest local suppliers. Enjoy your BBQ.

Last year there was a good number of ebikes at the NEC. I expect this year will be the same. The test facilities aren't great though. The Bristol event is great for a massive selection of ebikes but you have missed that for this year. I don't know who will turn up for Redbidge (Aug - see post by...

Sorry, I see from your other post you're in Yorkshire. Loughborough would be the nearest location to try the Kalkhoff.

The Kalkhoff Alfine 8 Pro connect is a lovely bike and would be very suitable for you needs. The 17ah battery will realistically take you over 50 miles in the highest assist level and more than double this in lowest setting if not too hilly. It is true that many (perhaps most) ebikes would be...

This is debatable, Kent and Cornwall also have claims to this title.

I tried the Gepida (with the old Bosch motor) last year. I thought it was decent enough but for £2000 there's quite a lot of choice - and in my opinion better options. I think you'd be better off with the Batribike.

Also, if you just press the red button on the battery it will wake it up.

All these have the trapezoid frame I was talking about in my earlier post. Here's a picture of the Kalkhoff.

The Sahel i360 is only now available in 50 or 55cm frame. This will probably be too big. Many shorter riders like the Sahel Compact. You can try one of these in Bristol (or in Devon if you're this side of Bristol).

Worth giving the new 50Cycles shop in Bristol a call. They had a 45cm Pro-Connect Xion with a trapezoid (low sloping cross-bar) frame that I think would be perfect. Last one so it may have gone by now.

The Electric Transport Shop are a decent company in my experience. They have a number of shops but I have only dealt with them in Bristol.

If you're not too far from Shoreham (or if going to Hampton Wick to try the KTM / Kudos) it's worth trying a Kalkhoff as well. 50Cycles have shops in Hampton Wick and Shoreham. For a crank drive bike, the Kalkhoffs are difficult to beat. If you prefer a hub motor, the KTM (see previous post) is...

You can fit any saddle you like to any bike so no need to worry about that.

That Tasman certainly got the majority of admiring looks at the recent Bristol event.

Looks like a nice bike and the range extender is a smart idea. However I think £200 for a second 24v 5.5 Ah battery is a little less good value than the bike package as a whole.

Looks very nice, should be up to whatever you throw it at.
