Bikes and Batterys Ltd., the Peterborough based electric bike specialist, has introduced the Honda Kushi electric bike to the UK market at what it calls “an ultra-low retail price” of £695, with replacement batteries for less than £150.
The Kushi is a simple, single speed, lead acid battery powered twist and go bike and Bikes and Batterys are positioning this product as a basic but reliable model which comes with a 2 year warranty.
Bikes and Batterys managing director Berni Commerford said “The typical E-Bike buyer is looking for a low cost form of transport, the type of e-bikes being offered in the market today at £1200 plus and replacement lithium batteries at more than £400 can no way be classed as low cost. The Honda is the perfect bike for someone looking for a reliable daily runabout. No bells and whistles on this bike, just a well-built product from a world-renowned manufacturer offering good, solid value for money, with low running costs.”
Commerford added “We have trialled this Honda in a few of our dealers over the last 12 months and both sales and reliability have been first class, in fact we have not had one mechanical or electrical failure to date.”
