I've been after an e-bike and this one came up in a search and so I was looking for KZbin videos about it and came across your helpful video

That’s great to hear it has been of help, that was my goal when making this video. The bike is still going well and although expensive I can highly recommend it

I like Raleigh ebike I use the Raleigh Motus grand tour low step frame it also has 8 speed hub gears but mine came with rear wheel cafe lock. Mine has a lower range than your bike as it has 500watt power 5 tube. So far in 10 months of ownership I have over 1000 miles initialy in tour mode or sport but the fitter I have become the more I use eco. Mind I’m old guy of 75. My control is diff to your. On one ride on a decent the speedo recorded 35.6 mph with pedalling hard.

For a £3k bike I would have hoped that Raleigh would include at least an Intuvia display.

Really interesting review. What’s it like going up steep hills? We have a few where I live!

Hi , I'm currently thinking of a Centros, been and had a test ride today, I quite fancy the hub gears but the 2 cycle shops I have visited have tried to put me off, saying that the unit is heavier and that the rear wheel removal is more complicated, I was wondering how you were finding it. I think it would be cleaner and I remember the days of the 3 speed Sturmey Archer.
@benbamboozle9 ай бұрын
I’d definitely go for the hub gears, Rich at Ebike Sussex recommended them to me as they last longer and being able to change whilst stationary you never have a problem with the chain coming off. I am considering selling mine as I’m not delivering anymore as my other work has taken off again. Don’t know where you’re located but if you’d be interested in mine I’d be happy to talk

Thanks for the offer Ben, you are a long way from me, so I have found there are some good deals on this model at the moment and I have ordered a hub model, from an online seller, Tweeks Cycles. Good luck with Mr Punch.@@benbamboozle

Great review! About the digital display device on the handlebar. Is that removable?
@benbamboozle10 ай бұрын
I’m actually not sure and not with my bike to check. I think so, but don’t think it comes off that easily

@@benbamboozle no worries! I’m seriously considering getting this. But working out how to fit it in my flat. Out of curiosity, what size frame do you have? I’d fit the 48cm, but can’t find what the width measurements fully assembled

Just placed an order, but got the crossbar version instead

When the battery eventually needs replacing, does the bike shop replace them? as there is nothing on the Raleigh website to get replacement parts

hi , love your videos . what do u think is true range of this bike , lets say with pedal light assist ?
@benbamboozle Жыл бұрын
I’ve had 50 miles out of it. But it is dependant on the terrain, luckily not many hills around my area.
@benbamboozle Жыл бұрын
That’s riding it on tour mode which I find best. It’s very much pedal assist more than driving you along like on some cheaper bikes

Why did you not go for at the different frame ? Does the motor drag after you reach the assited speed limit
@benbamboozle Жыл бұрын
I went for the step through because delivering I’m on and off the bike all the time. There’s a bit of drag when you get up to speed but not terrible, you can get it going faster
