“We love to give our customers superpowers!!” Think Batman; he doesn’t actually have any powers, but he has cool gadgets and tech. But not even Batman has an electric bike! Nothing is quite like the boost you get from an eBike. A battery-powered motor can open up the cycling world like never before, helping to take the strain out of riding, no more sweaty commutes or impossible hill climbs, just lots of fun.
Whether you’re an adrenaline junkie trail rider, a newbie, a returning cyclist, or just looking for a bit of extra support as you negotiate the urban jungle, there will be an electric bike perfect for you.
With so many incredible ebikes to choose from, it’s not easy to work out which is the best electric bike, so we’ve included some of our favourite electric bikes for sale in the UK. We will also discuss a few helpful hints and tips on what to look for when making your choice.
What is the best electric bike?
This is one of the most ebike related Google questions, but it’s not relatively straightforward to answer because the best e-bike for me may not be the best e-bike for you. So the first thing to consider is what do you want to use your eBike for? Do you want to blast down trails, Go cross country, commute to work or take leisurely paced scenic rides? Not sure? Well, we have a bike for that too!!
Another consideration is budget. We sell an incredible range of ebikes to suit any wallet, from professional Carbon Fibre Full Suspension Electric Bikes, which would make even Bruce Wayne check in with his accountant. We also stock more affordable (but still hi-spec) ebikes, second-hand electric bikes and ex-demo ebikes from trusted brands like Haibike, Lapierre, Riese and Muller, Raliegh and Gazelle. We also accept most government-backed Cycle to Work Schemes and offer 0% finance, so you don’t have to be Batman to get your perfect e-bike. And yes, they come in black!!
Electric Mountain Bikes
The best electric mountain bikes or best eMTBs for short are now a commonplace sight, but it wasn’t always the case. Years ago, battery-powered e-mountain bikes were frowned upon by those who took their mountain biking a bit too ‘seriously’. But thankfully, those days are now long gone, and you can effortlessly blast up your local climb on a busy day without having to listen to panting pedal-power enthusiasts crying ‘Cheat!’ as you effortlessly overtake (deep down, they were just jealous). eMTB’s really shine on the climbs. You get all the thrills of the downhill without the agonising uphill climbs. With an electric mountain bike, the hill climbs actually become fun.
Electric Mountain Bikes fall into two main categories Full Suspension and Hard Tail. Electric Full Suspension eMTB’s have a shock absorber on the rear wheel and a suspension fork at the front. Electric hardtail Mountain Bikes only have a suspension fork at the front with a rigid back end. For a bit more info, see our blog on electric mountain bikes HERE.
Electric Hybrid Trekking Bikes
Electric trekking hybrid bikes, specifically designed for long trips, whether for fun or commuting. With compact and well-integrated electric drive from Bosch, Yamaha, or other manufacturers, deliver power with every push on the pedals. Ergonomic controls on the handlebars give the rider complete control of the power. E-touring bikes will generally come equipped with a full set of lights, a quality shifting system, mudguards, a tour-optimised seating position and a luggage rack. In addition, powerful disc brakes are the new norm on an e-touring bike. See our blogs “What is a Hybrid e-Bike?” and “The best e-bike of 2021: Top electric bikes for commuting.”
Comfort Electric Bikes
A Comfort ebike is an everyday bike that makes it fun and easy to get around. Comfort ebikes live up to its name by keeping your posture upright and relaxed for the ride ahead, perfect for seeing and been seen on the road. Low maintenance, comfortable, and easy to ride, comfort ebikes feature a low-step frame that’s easy to hop on and off. Pedal when you want, coast when you don’t.
Electric Race Bikes
Built for pure speed, e-race bikes have low set handlebars and a higher seating position allowing the rider a more aerodynamic riding position. Perfect for improving and prolonging your time in the saddle, you can emulate your Tour de France heroes (and overtake them!!) with an electric road race bike.
