View attachment 27416 Came across this bike on eBay. Very well specced, generous triangle for battery placement

Brand new at £500. This bike layout is getting hard to find now

No use for me as the frame is too small, and I prefer 29ers

I’ve no connection to the seller!

Hope it helps someone

I wonder? The £2k RRP seems a tad high for the low rated Suntour forks normally found on cheap Halford bikes....i.e under £300. I wonder what kind of quality the rear suspension bearings have. If not replaceable then I'd not touch it. Even quality bearings don't last all that long if the bike is really going to be used off road with the extra weight of the electrification. On the other hand if used on road and gentle trails it may be OK.
