Simple front and rear suspension offer a bit of spring without costing an arm and a leg. A 7-speed Shimano transmission may be low-end, but it is at least a name-brand component. And the mechanical disc brakes are likely plenty for a 250W bike that isn’t going to get up to 20 mph (32 km/h) very quickly.
I found one such supplier ,ukelectricbike.co.uk and gave them a call, the chap I spoke to , Marcus, could not have been more helpful. From giving me a good price to loaning me a e-bike to delivering to my doorstep….and even a follow up service two months after delivery. I run a business myself and admire good salesmanship kent road bike , coupled with great backup service and advice, Marcus is defiantly on too a winner. The Kent Electric Cruiser’s 350W rear-hub motor was more than capable on the flat roads and bike paths around my home, easily reaching and staying at 20 mph. But when the bike was pointed uphill, the performance was much less impressive.
I have seen them just laying down in the grass beside a sidewalk. The bikes were a wonderful way to get around even if you are not that fit. There are kent bayside cruiser some big hills which would have been a nightmare on ordinary bikes. The sense of freedom was wonderful and it was one of the best days out this year.
I’m not an influencer, and I don’t want you to visit my website or youtube channel. I’m just a guy who rides MTBs and wanted to get an ebike bc I’m tired of pedaling uphills on long trails. Kent currently offers three electric models for adults, plus one for kids.
For a little more money, the Schwinn Coston DX provides a more complete spec list and a more powerful motor. Schwinn also offers a Mendocino cruiser, though this looks more vintage than beach styled. The 10.4-amp hour battery promises around 1 hour 20 minutes of run time, or around 25 miles, using the electric assist at varying levels over the course of the ride.
The motor is mounted in the rear wheel and adds 180W of power in full power mode. There are medium and low power modes that provide even softer assist. An LED battery meter is mounted on the handlebars that also houses the power mode selector. The perfect choice for riders who are looking for a comfortable, and efficient ride. Crafted with a step-thru aluminum frame, this bike is lightweight and easy to mount and dismount. The removable semi-integrated battery ensures that you can charge your bike wherever and whenever you need to, and it’s lockable with a key to prevent theft.
