They say it's the newest and coolest.......

[indalo]

If you are susceptible to glossy advertising and slick marketing slogans, perhaps buying yourself a white German car recently because everyone knows that silver is passé, then ebay has the bike you need today.

The newest and coolest.....that's you, right? Well, here it is:

MOUNTAIN BIKE ELECTRIC (ULTIMATE POWER) | eBay

Enjoy,

With a premium on the price lol

Don't forget the incorrect claim that it's road legal, and also the incorrect statement that the speed limit for an ebike is 15mph....

If it will do the claimed 60kph = 37.5mph - good luck with that!

At least the front tyre will be good for 20,000 miles

Is a fair assumption...

My take....if you are willing to spend £1250 on a 1000 watter, consider a conversion of a bike you know you can get spares for,after all it is for 'off road' and will have a hard time...(tic) and use a conversion from distributor you know will also have spares and back up.

First one weighs 23.5Kg - second one 19.2Kg. For those interested.

 

[mountainsport]

Sorry to say but the pannier looks slightly tacky/unfinished viewing it from rear position.
So for neatness the other bike looks better

True - they've more or less substituted £'s for Euros in pricing.
The bikes do look good though.

Yep! KTM Macina Race should be just under £2000. Really like this 29'er bike with XT gearing, 19kg. 18kg with 26inch wheels.....NICE

Ha ha ha...it is one fine bike.....Just wish it had a drop cross bar version (keep wife happy)

a bit confused by spec, some say 11 speed alfina others XT. I think XT a better combination with Bosch drive. make sure you try a Bosch powered bike first though as they ain't no moped.....

Nearly bought a ktm egnition last year, seems to have disappeared? . Still waiting for ave to get back to me on their hybrid x11s. More german bikes that are overpriced , I love them .
