WHO THIS BIKE SUITS
You want a reliable, long-range e-bike with exceptional range — fewer charging stops and more riding.
The lowstep frame matters to you, whether that's ease of mounting and dismounting or simply a more accessible, confidence-inspiring riding position.
You want a bike that's ready for daily use — practical, dependable and built to last.
You want an honest, practical e-bike at a sensible price — strong Bosch assistance without premium component cost.
IF YOU'RE LOOKING FOR SOMETHING DIFFERENT

Handling and comfort
The SR Suntour SF25-NVX32 takes the edge off road surfaces without adding unnecessary weight or complexity.
Practicality
Integrated lights, mudguards and a MIK rear rack come as standard — ready to ride from day one.
