I'm looking for a step-thru eBike with a rear hub motor and a central battery (not on a rear rack). I'm wanting a battery which is more than 500 Wh so I can do a 50 mile cmmute. I've narrowed it down to: Wisper Wayfarer, Juicy Roller, Volt Burlington. The Wayfarer has the largest battery (700 Wh), the Roller has a torque sensor which might help its 580 Wh battery. The Burlington has a 504 Wh battery which might struggle to do the distance. My local bike shop is a Juicy dealer. I'd probably need to ditch the suspension seat post on the Roller because it's quite a tall bike, and the step-thru is higher than the other two bikes. All 3 are UK companies. The Burlington has the SpinTech hub (made by Bafang). I don't know the torque rating. The Roller and Wisper motors are made by Aikema and are allegedly 55 Nm and 50 Nm respectively.
They'd probably all do the job, but any comments about pros and cons, or other options?
