newbie First E-bike

Featured Replies

Hi,

 

Looking into my first ebike purchase. I've gone down the rabbit hole and i think i want folder/commuter bike.

Female, 30, 140lbs, 5'4

Cycle to and from work about 10 miles round trip.

Ideally can also go long distances as there are really good cycle routes all round so i can have mini weekend adventures upto 40 Miles.

I really like the look of Eovolt Afternoon, Estarli 20.8, Ado Air 20 Pro, Pvy Z20 Plus, Ado Beast

My budget is 2k Max but would prefer a cheaper bike

I don't want to build anything so no conversion kits etc, Torque sensor only

 

Any recommendations would be great. Thanks

£2k or thereabouts seems expensive for a hub motor 20" wheel folder, even with torque sensor, so beware eovolt and estarli.

 

Pvy z20 plus is a fat bike, no good for long range.

 

Ado mentions an app. I would avoid any bike where the app is essential to operation: unnecessary lock-in.

 

Consider Wisper 806 Torque, and if at all possible, do ride before you buy.

 

And divide all range claims by 3 for decision making purposes.

Thanks for the recommendations. We only have another 350 806's available this year and nearly 100 are already on back order. I you are interested, please place your order ASAP as we will be out in the next few weeks.

 

All the best, David

Thanks for the recommendations.

I’m planning on doing a test ride for the Wisper as my local shop is one of your dealers and then we’ll see.

Thanks
