  • Please can you recommend a bike pump for this make and model?
    Question asked by Harry Smith on 13/07/2023 10:55:50
  • Does this bike charge the battery when cycling? Is the battery replaceable? What is the difference between a hybrid and electric?
    Question asked by Harry Smith on 28/03/2023 18:24:44
    Electric bikes do not charge whilst cycling, they require direct charging from the mains.

    Thereare many types of bikes e.g. road, mountain and gravel. All of which have an electric option. Pleasae follow this link to our website for the different options for an electric bike https://www.balfesbikes.co.uk/bikes/electric-bikes

    A hybrid is a mix of a road bike and a mountain bike. The result is a bicycle that’s suitable for general-purpose riding over various types of terrain, which is why most hybrids tend to be used for commuting.
