Raleigh Centros Cross Bar Derailleur Gear Bronze Electric Bike 700c
The Raleigh Centros Cross Bar Derailleur Gear Bronze Electric Bike with 700c wheels has an in-tube battery that keeps the weight low on the machine so you barely notice the difference of riding this electric bike from an analogue machine. Built with great components, this is a great commuter machine or one for getting around town in style.
In tube batteries are increasingly being put onto electric bikes as they keep the weight low, allowing for a far more comfortable riding experience with similar manoeuvrability to a traditional ‘analogue’ bike. Even while integrated into the frame, the battery can still be removed with a key for charging or security.
Comfort and manoeuvrability comes with the 700c wheels that are small enough for deft turns and yet slightly chunky for handling a less well maintained bike or towpath.
The Bosch Active Line Plus motor is designed with the city in mind, delivering just the power when and how you need it. While topping out at a maximum 15 mph as per regulations, you’ll get there safely and not in a screaming hurry. The 500Wh battery will give you a good 80-90 miles of travel on a charge too.
The bronze Raleigh Centros Cross Bar Derailleur Gear electric bike has some great pedal drivetrain components too, with Shimano Deore 10 speed derailleur gears on an 11-34 tooth cassette that delivers a great range of ratios. Speed control comes from the Shimano M315 Hydraulic Disc brake – more than enough for most weather conditions and speeds.
This being a commuter focused hybrid electric bike it has a full set of mudguards and lights that are plumbed into the main battery for day and night riding.
