Raleigh Captus Step Through 700c Altus 9 Speed Electric Bike Purple
One of the best entry level crank motor hybrid electric bikes available, the purple Raleigh Captus Step Through 700c Altus 9 Speed has many of the mechanisms on the Raleigh Motus range of e-bikes without hitting your wallet quite so hard! A great all round machine for getting about town and on lighter off-road sections, this is a good looking choice for those who need a bit of performance from a machine but also want to look great doing it! With its generation 2 BOSCH Active Line crank motor system, the Raleigh Captus Step Through electric bike is able to smoothly accelerate as you ask for more power through your legs. It doesn’t rocket off at the lights, but is designed to deliver power smoothly and efficiently as you would naturally when you pull away.
Other great features on this electric bike include a 63mm Suntour suspension fork, suspension seat post to take out the worst of the bumps as you ride along. The ergonomic grips, adjustable stem and oversize hybrid handlebar are about comfort as you ride as well. The rear pannier, full mudguards and integrated lighting system make for a great machine for getting about town. The Raleigh Captus Step Through electric bike has an Altus 9-speed gearing system and for stopping power it has Shimano M315 hydraulic disc brakes that work well in all weather conditions. Its 700c, ebike specific Zeppelin tyres are designed to grip the road well while making for an even smoother ride.
Range? This is amply helped with the Bosch Power Pack 300Wh (8Ah) that can give the economical rider a whopping 112 miles between charges. That’s more than enough for a day getting about town!
