Help please...First ebike

Featured Replies

Evening all, I’m just looking at buying my first ebike mainly for bike trails but will also be doing a bit of on and off road. My budget is £1500 (top end) I will be doing no more than 30 miles at a time, not a clue on what to get so any recommendations??

Will also be looking at using the cycle to work scheme as well, is it worth it and how much will I save?

Many thanks

Woosh Gran Camino. There is a little wait but may fit the bill.

The Gran Camino is more oriented to offroading (rigid stem, long travel forks, bolt through axle, wide rims and tyres, torque arms) and heavy riders

Nice bike, bit heavy and I’m only 5’7

Do you still do the Rio??

Thanks for the info

These woosh bikes look good quality, I am looking for a fairly powerful ebike. I am 6ft and 15.5st. I have never owned an ebike so would appreciate any info on what would be best for me in the under 1200 pound range.
My vote goes to the Woosh Faro as your height is perfect for the bike but your weight is close to the borderline of the bikes limitations. I’m 6ft and since getting mine have gone from 15 stone to under 14 with diet and regular rides since May last year. As for “fairly powerful” that’s a massive interpretation, my views are it’s a great boost when needed but lightweight enough to not always use. Fitted 700 x 35c tyres and difference in comfort is night and day. Fitness levels must be a consideration in your choice but if fairly fit and hopefully improving then these bikes provide adequate assistance for most terrain.

Not really looking to lose weight, I am probably nearer 16st as well. I used to lift weights and I may go back to lifting again shortly so I doubt my weight will go down much in the future.

I am currently a deliveroo rider so I would like an ebike that helps me do longer shifts and is able to propel me up hills.

Woosh Camino with the largest battery capacity, more suspension, bigger tyres more powerful motor probably suit you better. Never owned one but can recommend these bikes for build quality and after sales support.
