Hi, I have a 9 mile daily commute with a couple of hills etc. Don’t want to turn up to work all sweaty, so will get an E-bike.
I’m after a low maintenance e-bike with a belt drive preferred. (I have a normal Cube Travel SL with belt drive and like the maintenance free quietness).
Needs usual stuff for commute, integrated lights, hub gears are fine, decent disc brakes and well built/able to handle the daily commute without breaking.
I’ve looked at the Raleigh Centros Grand Tour Crossbar and also the Giant Dailytour E+ 1, both look decent to me and roughly in same price range.
Budget 2-3k
Any others that you would recommend?
Thanks!
E-Bike for daily commute
Re: E-Bike for daily commute
The other option is to put a FWD hub motor on your existing bike...
Might be the easiest solution to get what you want if you like your existing bike. Then if you want to you can drop the motor out, take the battery off and have a "non-e" bike for weekends or summer?

A shortcut has to be a challenge, otherwise it would just be the way. No situation is so dire that panic cannot make it worse.
