We don’t like that much
On the other hand, there are the following equipment details, which we don’t like very much, but you can live with under certain conditions.
- Nameless front wheel drive (unfavorable to the center of gravity, front wheel motors often cause tires to spin in bad weather conditions. Plus, there are frequent heat problems on slopes)
- Rim brakes (at 25kg, anything but optimal. Even if the e-bike offers an extra step back, we always prefer disc brakes)
Brief summary: a typical representative of the e-city bike class. For comfortable shopping trips, but no more. The reduced price is fine, but it’s not a flawless deal.

- Look: Thanks to its ancient charm, the e-bike stands out from the crowd.

- With a weight of 28 kg.
- There are no disc brakes, instead simple rim brakes and a rear pedal.
