I’m looking for a good step through with a powerful motor for my wife.
it has to be comfortable with a powerful motor that can get her back into cycling.
dutch style preferably so that it will be a pleasure for her to ride and not a chore.

Look at Woosh Santana. It comes in crank drive (https://wooshbikes.co.uk/?santana-cd) and hub drive (https://wooshbikes.co.uk/?santana3) versions. (crank available, hub version is like so many e-bikes not currently available). Very good value for money, and easily maintainable if anything does happen. Even though mail order rather than local you will get excellent customer service.

Also look at Raleigh Motus and Cube Hybrid. Both a lot more expensive. Because of the Bosch system much more expensive and slow (typically motor needs to be sent to Germany) to fix/replace battery etc if anything happens outside warranty.

thank you very much for the recommendation, but I have no stock - all the incoming deliveries from now to March are already presold.
There may be a couple of Ramblas left, I am awaiting some replacement speed sensors.
