Cities need to do more to encourage people to ride bicycles. Safe protected bike lanes and trails are needed so adults and children can ride safely. Speak up for bicycles in your community. Bicycles make life and cities better.

I was concerned that one bike had 'walk assist if you to push it up a steep hill'. My main reason for getting an ebike would be that i wouldn't need to get push it up steep hills.

If these are…”cheap” then people really need a reality check on affordability. Renting a city bike for £4 is cheap. Dropping £800 on an e-bike all at once is for people who have £800 lying around. I get that these are relatively less costly than what other e-bikes can go for, but “cheap” is a gross over-statement.

[Edit] And most of these were priced above £800 might I add. If you really want to help those with a lower budget, actually review some cheap e-bikes and discuss the reality of what the experience would be for the inevitable maintenance and possible repairs at some point (if it’s even all that different from more expensive e-bikes) as well as what the customer support is like for actual cheap brands. Now THAT would be a valuable and interesting video.

I wish Cycling Weekly uploaded more regularly. It is great to watch cycling videos and reviews without feeling like I am watching an infomercial.

Really impressed with the carrera impel 2, without the power on, it’s effortless to ride, smooth and responsive, And when you hit the hills, on with the power and smooth effortless climb to the top, superb bike, that performs well above its price range.

None of these are even remotely cheap or I am poor maybe both

[Raulperez-ycde]

Best cheap...??
If nearly, and over a thousand pounds for an ebike, is far away to be cheap

[netecrivernetecassassins]

what goes in to making them? Some bikes are £100-200, so is it an extra £400-1000 for a motor, etc?

[oadka]

Great review which clearly shows prices and weights of the bikes

[kevinhicks]

Would be very interested to see your opinion in this mix of the Fiido C21 e-gravel bike. So far my number 1 choice and ticks a lot of boxes at a superb price in comparison to others. So much so, looking to order one.

[zuzanaberankova]

Great and the only thing I added to the bike is and extender tube to the stem and new seat!

[salehhussain]

Could you please assist me in selecting the appropriate e-bike? I require it for daily use to reduce belly and face fat. Given my budget constraints, I'm seeking the best budget e-bike option. Could you advise me on which e-bike would suit my needs best and where I can purchase it?

[LucaMu]

Just ordered the Carrera! Picking it up on Thursday. Thank you 😁 fingers crossed it does the job for food deliveries

[andrewharpin]

The carrera IM series S/M frame is min 5'6/7, not 5'1" as stated

[stuartkennedy]

The government should give an incentive for these e bikes. A few hundred pounds would be good and encouraging.

[cheeks]

It's all about the weight for me. Going up stairs needs to be easy. It looks like I'm going for first one. Hmmm

[bloosn]

Are these all cadence sensor bikes, or are some torque??

[bridawg]

Core 5 from Ride1up. 500/750watt peak motor. 48v 10AH battery. Top speed 28mph. I got mine shipped to my door for only $1, 005

[spikethea]

Ive been seeing nightmare reviews from the im-1 and im-2 anyone have any experience on it?

[Free__Speech]

The problem with most electric bikes from 2021 are for tall riders
