Told my friend I would help him look for a bike. Turns out it is an eBike he is after and I know nothing about them. Had a chat about the type of riding he’s wanting to do and the budget. He’s looking at around £2k and I reckon a hardtail is going to suit his needs. He’s quite tall so possibly 29er.
Anything out there within his price range that’s worth taking a look at? I’m stuck in steel HT land and not sure what to recommend. My go to is always used, steel, niche brand, without a battery so not much use 😀
Any suggestions appreciated.
I'm sure it'll get sneered at, but have a look at the Decathlon Rockrider E-ST900 at £1699. It's far better specced than anything I can find for the money, lifetime frame/500 charge battery warranty, and it uses the Brose motor which is reckoned to be one of the quietest and lowest internal drag above the cutoff.
Cube reaction is in that price range with the 500 battery.
My wife has one, can’t really fault it tbh.
Thanks guys, I’ve passed those two across to him.
