Reviewer: Pascal Billery-Schneider
Retailer: Fahrrad-Becker-Lemgo
Purchase Price: 640DM
Time Owned: 7 months
Terrain: Moderate Hills
Strengths:
The alu frame build quality seems very good.
The bike is not too heavy: 26,1 kg with the battery.
It is also quite comfortable because of the good position.
The 3 brakes (1 roller + 2 V) are really efficient.
The power delivered by the Suzhou-Banfang motor is perfect for my use (24 km per day with my child installed on a Bobike junior sit).
I've never tested the maximal range, but it should be around 60 km.
Weaknesses:
The standard dynamo.
The battery case look
The brake hand lever quality is a bit poor.
The standard tyres. I replaced them with Schwalbe Marathon plus.
On very hilly roads, the bike needs efforts as I presume many hub-motor e-bikes.
Summary:
The bike is designed by Cycle Union GmbH, a german group (Rabeneick, Kreidler, Epple)
The component are quite standard: Spectro SRAM S7 with roller brake, Zoom fork, Vbrakes, 28" Femco Touring alu wheels, Town & Country frontlight + Basta Ray Steady LED, Phylion Lithium battery 10 Ah 36 V 400 cycles ...
I was lucky for I managed to get the bike for 749 € + 59 € delivery on eBay, but the normal price is 999 €.
I've never had an electric bike before but I'm still very enthousiast. I made a french forum to claim it: http://e.bike.free.fr/ ;-)
OverallRating: 8.5
