July 3, 20178 yr Hey forum, I've been looking into purchasing an electric bike, and the form factor/looks of the Batavus Torino or Batavus Genova is basically where I am heading. It does not need to be a Batavus, but only knowing about that brand apart from some local ones I take that as an example. The requirements is that the pricerange is "around" 1500 pounds, and the second requirement is that it has an unlimited throttle, either delivered with this - or a possibility to "unlimit" an existing throttle or add it EASY. When I say unlimited, I am still OK if it limits on the speed limit for e-bikes, which here in sweden is 25km/h. But I don't want it to be limited to 6km/h (walking speed) which some of them are. We have a brand called "EcoRide" here in Sweden, which does deliver with this throttle, but I like the looks of the Wisper and Batavus models, and would prefer something with a tiny bit of more quality. Can anyone point me at some brand/models where I can get the above, or does all brands in general support throttles? Oh, and one last thing - they need to be able to deliver within EU, (to Sweden to be precise) but I guess most brands are able to, to some extent. Thanks for any valuable input! Johan
July 4, 20178 yr Hi Johan, thanks for considering our bikes, my advice as always is try before you buy. The Wisper Torque would fit your budget and do everything you need it to do. Juicy bikes are good too! All the best, David
