Looking for a new comfortable ebike

[Hutch]

Hi all,

I love ebikes and I'm trying to order a nice one. But in my country (Belgium) offers and models are still limited. So I'm looking around, on german and british websites to order from abroad.

I've already bought an ebike from Germany for a relative, now I'm looking for another one for myself. The first one is a basic city bike. Now I'm looking for more options, such as disck brakes, and overall: comfort. Etiher with an extremely comfortable saddle, or a rear suspension system.

I also like low ebikes, with 26'' tires, as I'm 5'7. I prefer a vertical battery below the saddle, to keep the weight centered, and some space on the frame to put a water bottle. I'm riding in the city and in parks, so the bike should be a bit sporty.

I've read several topics here a few monts ago, but now I would like to contribute.

See you on the forums.

Hello! I'm just starting out on the journey of choosing a bike too.

If you're looking for recommendations, I wonder if you'd do better in the Which electric bike should I buy? bit of the forum. Any businesses who are around could respond to you there whereas they can't say much here (there's a no advertising rule in this bit of the forum so business accounts are limited in what they can say in case it could be construed as advertising).

I'm not sure where in Belgium you are, it might be that Germany is just as convenient for you but have you considered looking at sites in Holland? Sales of ebikes there have gone up massively in the last couple of years apparently so you might find a good choice there.

AN, Hutch is looking for something like the woosh Zephyr-B, full suspension, large rear hub geared motor and hydraulic brakes. The Zephyr-B is smooth, especially on throttle, perfect for riding in the woods.
These bikes cost about 2000+ Euros.Courier pickup from Southend to Belgium would cost him about 150 Euros. It may be worth his while sending his courier to Woosh for a bike that costs half the Euro price.

Hi all and thanks for the suggestions.

I would like to answer your comments, but another part of the forum is probably better suited for the conversation.

So I'll start a new thread in the appropriate section.
