Great bike, good on hills and rides comfortably. This LX8 Smarta electric bike is in excellent working order, been used for only six months and comes with new battery, and fitted with a Sigma handlebar computer for speed, distance, etc. Brakes very effective and gear selection is smooth. A comfortable saddle and front suspension provides a good ride. Comes complete with charger and battery key. Motor max speed 15mph. Motor provides assistance while pedalling or can be activated without pedalling via twist-and-go throttle. Excellent 36v 14.5Ah battery. Frame size 17". Height from floor to top of saddle = 81cm. Kickstand, Motorised, Mudguards, Rack, hub gearing, and easy battery removal thanks to a tip-up saddle. Pedelec and throttle-only options add to the functionality. It's great for just about any use, be it shopping, leisure riding or commuting – and all in comfort. A wide range of handlebar positions and seat heights means this Smarta should suit almost all riders. The Smarta's zippy front hub motor helps it rise above its sensible looks and practical step-through frame, and it pipped the sportier looking Volt in a speed course test. The three power settings are ideal – level one gives a helpful amount of power, and two and three only really be needed in much hillier country or in strong headwinds.
