Raleigh Centros Step Through Hub Gear Grey Electric Bike 700c
If you notice people looking at you closely as you ride this grey Raleigh Centros Step Through Hub Gear Electric Bike it is because they are just noticing you are on an electric, not a traditional bike. Both discreet in its hidden extra power yet timelessly stylish in looks, this is a great commuter or machine for getting you about town.
One of the reasons that Raleigh have put the battery in the main tube is to keep the weight low and the feel of riding it very similar to that of a traditional machine. Secured with a key, it can be easily removed for security and to charge it.
Hub gears are low maintenance which means fewer trips to the bike mechanic for servicing. As such the Raleigh Centros Step Through Hub Gear Grey Electric Bike with 700c wheels is a dependable machine that will do as you ask without too much work keeping it on the roads.
Manoeuvrability is also helped with the 700c wheels that are great for smaller, quicker turns, and with their added volume make for a more comfortable ride on bouncy surfaces. These are complemented with the Selle Royal Scienta R2 saddle and 63mm travel Suntour front forks.
A Bosch Active Line Plus 250 Watt motor is designed for urban riding, delivering just the power you need without pulling away like a crazy horse. The 500Wh in-tube battery will give the motor a realistic range of 70 miles of riding in mixed use as you go up and down the power settings.
Built for the city and lighter touring this electric hybrid bike also has a full set of mudguards, an alloy pannier rack and lights that are wired into the main battery so as long as there is juice in the battery you will always see where you are going!
