  1. TallnHeavy started following Which ebike
  2. I looked up on internet as to what to choose from belt or chain and many recommended belt.... I'll reconsider again as the belt drive bikes cost more. Thanks
  3. I’m looking to replace my Giant ToughRoad SLR1 adventure bike with an e-bike so I can more comfortably ride longer distances and keep active. I’d like some help finding a suitable model because I have specific requirements: Weight: 140 kg (rider) Height: 191 cm Daily distance: At least 40 km, often more Budget: Up to €5,700 Drive: Belt drive (I want minimal maintenance—no chain oiling) Location: Belgium Preferred style: All-rounder—touring or SUV-like e-bike (not a city bike or cargo bike), mainly for tarmac and Belgium’s rough roads, but occasionally venturing onto unpaved routes I’ve noticed that most e-bikes have a weight limit of just 130–140 kg. Even the largest Dutch bike dealer only recommended the Kalkhoff Image Advance+ or better, which seems more like a city bike than a true trekking/touring or SUV model. Am I out of luck when it comes to getting a robust, belt-drive all-round e-bike suited for my weight, height, and riding style within this budget? Or are there specific models I should consider? Any concrete advice or model suggestions would be really appreciated. Thanks!
