What do you think about step through ebikes? I'm sold! Links to reviews of other Engwe bikes are in the description.
There is a stigma associated with step through bikes, it’s basically associated with being a girls bike but personally I couldn’t care less.
Yeah I like the M20 Pro and I'm thinking of a dual battery job the upgrade controller, motors brakes, suspension etcbut I'm a crossbar kinda guy, it helps to stretch a bit lol.
@@goingoutotheparty1 haha yeah the L20 is the easy life 😂
I have a several bikes a step through e bike being one of them each bike is slightly different ride posture and feel but all are fun
@@matthewgibbs6705 one for each occasion 👍👍
You can have the Throttle activated as long as it doesn't propel you faster than 3.7 mph! I was just reading all the stuff last night for my new one and come across the part about the 3.7 mph legal Throttle use! You can use it if you are older n have disabilities trying to put the power down to set off
Should be fast enough to keep up with traffic 25-30 mph
Which seat do you use when you're carrying your kid on the back?
Sorry mate…if it is not on a 36v battery it is STILL ILLEGAL and plod can fine you (a lot..upto 5 Grand and impound your bike). Plus you have a twist grip throttle, which is ALSO Illegal if made functional. The law is thoroughly stupid!!!
no, there is no limit on the battery volts, the limit is on the power output which is 250 watts. no throttle allowed, and cut of at 15.5 mph.
Why are the ones in the in America 750 watts
Because they're allowed to be 750 over there. they're the same really they just need unlocking here.
Legal speed should be 20mph with assist.
Poor Brits. Only 250W e- bikes. Anemic.
That is actually a 48v bike with an 18amp controller that peaks at 960 watts and is rated at 750 watts continuous. In the USA this bike is technically illegal as it goes over 20mph by throttle alone. How could it be otherwise, the thing goes 25mph and flys uphill. If I were in the UK, I’d buy one in a second!! I live in the US and bought the class 2 Wired freedom (60v 2000 watts, 40mph when it is unlocked). Nice to have the power and speed if you need it.
Yeah it's good that it can be classed as 250w as plausible deniability is a beautiful thing 😂
I wish there was a way to get the wired freedom shipped here to the UK. I'd get one instantly.
@@e-VRC
As all governments know!😉🤫
Yup, except it's legal in good ole Florida. We regulate speed not wattage.
What a superb video! I used your code and bought one as a result :)
I love a utiltarian e-bike especailly as things like aero and weight become less important. Assist speed of 15.5 is fine for me it's about 60% of my non assisted speed and I usually cruise about 16mph analgoue so for me it's about eliminating the hills and allowing me to not question adventures and taking stuff to work. 20mph just causes too much strain on my compenents and it stops becoming an assist and just becomes the primary power of motion which feels disengaged and defeates the point of being on the bike for me.
Very true!
The ebike EU/UK law was supposed to be put on
'Borris Bonfire'
of EU red tape......
Because Borris being a keen ebike user, knows cycling safely in the city 20 mph zones- its important to be able to keep up with traffic flow @ 20mph , rather than being cut up by buses trucks cars because the EU law is making cycling dangerous @ restricted 15 mph 😑
Problem is the fuzz see you cycling at over 15mph, your new ebike is impounded resulting in a fine 🤦
The real motor power of this bike is 500 watts (both eu and us models rebranded as 250/750 same exact engine )wich paired with the 48v makes it really a good combo.
Is that the actual specs of the motor ?
The front light on the L20 can also be mounted on the fork brace using the front mudguard bolt
That was not only a great review but an enjoyable watch too. Thank you.
DO NOT BUY THESE BICYCLES...THIS BICYCLE IS TOTALLY ILLEGAL...THE POLICE IS SEIZING IT IN THE UK
@@liammalarky3483 sorry I'm late. Thanks for watching 👍🏽
I think the Uk limit should be raised to 20mph and a throttle allowed... But i doubt it will ever happen.
We can hope 🤞🤞
Agreed, it'll be a cold day in hell before they bother looking into their 4th 100,00 signature petition.
It's a ridiculous law. My folding road bike can hit 22mph without much trouble. And I've been on a 16lb carbon road bike that hit 33MPH. This 15.5mph law makes no sense..
@@fender1000100 its to keep the scared curtain twitching daily mail readers voting tory, they think all ebikes and scooters are ridden by 14yr old gangsters whilst vaping
It'll never encourage car drivers to switch over to a "green" transport that does half the urban speed limit.
It's silly cos I'm 54 and can maintain 20-22mph on legs all day. Even got stopped in my youth for doing 37mph downhill, in a 30 zone.
Rear suspension is a must unless you like your spine to be the suspension. Also I just don't have confidence in these bikes from China. The quality issues will eventually show up with no way to get parts. Batteries on these bikes are usually low quality too. I'd get an Ariel Rider Grizzly if they were available in the UK.
I just got mine, and did nowhere near the claimed range of 140km ! False advertisement from ENGWE. I know range can vary from rider and conditions, but I got only 40km out of this bike... and only 25km on max settings...... Very very disappointed... All the rest is pretty good, except some gears jumping but this I'm sure I can adjust... I will be writing a complain to the company, FALSE ADVERTISEMENT by ENGWE! You are right ! CHINA
...and you hit somebody at 31mph with 40kg strapped to the bike? Result??? Who pays for the funeral???
I do think the speed limit in the uk should be at least 20/25mph depending on the rider, but that's me that olso depends where I'm riding
I would say put it upto 20mph but no more than that.
20mph is a good speed 👍
Most people who have used an ebike would agree with that, but the ignorant masses who have never used an ebike will ruin things as usual.
I think the uk limit should be 22 mph with throttle and maybe 500 Watts
22mph what's that I can ride a bike nearly at that speed you want 30mph when you need it. Mine does 50mph great it's like being on a motor bike I don't do that speed as battery would go quick normally 34mph even 30 mph is fast people don't realize you can get from a to b in no time all my kit include lights £895 big difference
I don't really think I matters to much as people will always unlock them to go faster
What a clown world when a normal street bike can pass you at 40+ km.
I have a few e.bikes the slowest one does 15.5 and the quicker one does 28+ and have never had any problems with the police
@@matthewgibbs6705 Trouble is mate…you’ve been lucky…they can absolutely can throw the book at you with £5000 fine and 6 licence points. It has put me off risking it.
I own the M20 and my wife has the L20. Your numbers are similar to what our American 750 watt bikes do. They have been impressing me on a daily basis. They do well off road and on hill climbs. They are well built machines
Glad you're enjoying them. So cool that you enjoy them together 👍👍
DO NOT BUY THESE BICYCLES...THIS BICYCLE IS TOTALLY ILLEGAL...THE POLICE IS SEIZING IT IN THE UK
Which one is better for hilly routes?
After researching we got my wife the e26 to follow me around on my Freego F1 pro and the Engwe is a horse. Great bang for buck
Insurance is more important
Your reviews are very good. I'd love for you to do one on Engwe's Engine X to see how it compares to this L20 and the Engine Pro. I know I don't want either the 750w EP2 Pro or Engine Pro as I don't want it confiscated and to be fined etc. I'm 16 and a half stone, and need something that's going to get me and some cargo up the steep hills hereabouts. The Engine X is marked as having a 250W motor but it can be unlocked as can its throttle. I'd love to see you put it through your hill test.
The engine x is the same as the ep-2 pro basically. The engine pro is the bike you want if you are trying to get a lot of weight up a steep hill.
Thanks! I think the Engine X is a similar situation to the L20 where it will be faster and more torquey than the motor badge would suggest. So depends on whether you want cargo or folding. I prefer the L20 shape.
I still have 2 of their bikes to review I might ask for the X when I'm done.
@@e-VRC According to Engwe the L20 has a maximum instantaneous power of 500w and a torque of 50. The Engine X has a maximum instantaneous power of 800w and a torque of 55.
and can you do the Fiido T1 Pro 750w the new one not the old one
Yea, they do need to look at this, power and ability to get up hills with larger folks on and equipment etc puts the base 250w bikes with the dinosaurs, we need at least 500 and throttles to make these bikes easier and safer to use
Totally with you on this. No reason all bikes can't be 1000w but limited. They don't have to accelerate crazily either as some people think they must if they're that powerful.
It's very hard to find the torque for the L20 which is most important for climbing hills. I suspect it is between 40 and 50 nm when a Cube bike with a Bosch motor has 70 to 80 nm. It is however more than twice the price. It's almost as if Engwe and Ado etc hide the torque figures.
@@MikeBrown-dk7or According to Engwe the torque of the L20 is 50 nm.
@@PHOT0GUY And will only climb 10 deg
Great review mate, thanks for this. I'm going go car free this year, so I need a do it all bike. My back is a pretzel so the step through option is perfect. Thanks again.
Cheers glad it helped 👍 good luck with ebike life 🤟
The bike could still be limited to 15mph but the regulations need to allow more torque for climbing and a speed limited throttle if they want us out of our cars. The current 250w are not useful enough so sadly i choose any of my three gas guzzlers for most trips
they probably don't want them "useful". everything is a scam. people who are in charge for all of this are flying private jets
Thats what they want. Everyone on powerful ebikes would be less tax money and less oil use.
it probably is a 250watt motor, but its also probably a 36 volt motor with a 48 volt controller and battery, that would make it go alot faster, but still keeps it legal, you will just burn out the motor faster
those handlebars on the my engine pro would look great
Agreed
Saving this for my dinner time today
On a normal MTB i pedal to 35 km/h, and my current e-MTB cuts off at 25 km/h and then e-brakes to slow me down when i go over. So i think 30-35 km/h should be standard/top for e bikes, not 25 km/h which is slower than i would ride with no motor on it.
I've just bought a wolf in sheep's clothing tricycle three seater that does an eye watering 33pmh, 80 miles on a single charge 48v 30ah lithium battery, equipped with quadruple rear suspension creating anti tipping, can climb 30%+ gradients, grandma loves it for doing her Iceland shop 😁
I want it lol
Hi Dave sounds pretty great e-trike that can do 33mph is sufficient enough to handle the day - night life routine.
Bet your grandma loves it going down for the shop, where did you get yours?? as my mom who is old less fortunate needs one.
What tricycle is it though?
@@insistentmind498Dave is on the wind up me finks lol
@@mikehunt1528 Lmao possible
These fat tyre bikes also earn disparaging looks from pedestrian and even push bike riders when your riding shared tracks and paths I've noticed
Fuck 'em I say. Pure haters can't handle the fandle
20mph limit would be so much safer as then you could travel same speed as cars in the city.
I do, and still almost get sideswiped by drivers doing 40mph. If the legal limit is good enough for ebikes, why do car manufactures make cars that go 180mph? One rule for car, another rule for bikes..
@@fraserthomson5766ebikes are the only vehicle type that have power AND speed restrictions. You have learner motorcycles as well with power restrictions but they can go above 70 which is as fast as you can ever legally ride so it doesn't matter. The 15mph limit is just awkward and holds up traffic everywhere.
The idea of an e-bike is that it is a bicycle with motor assist. So it should be used in places where one would ride a normal pedal bike. Is it safe to ride a pedal bike in the city? If not then that should be addressed.
@@HenriZwols usually no, it's not safe in the city on a bike.
@@JudeTheUA-camPoopersubscribe Then the city council should address that. Increasing the legal speed limit for e-bikes for safety reasons will only benefit those who can afford an e-bike, further increasing the divide between the haves and have-nots.
You keep saying this is legal. How is this legal as a bike in the UK if it assists over 25kph (16mph)? When you hack it ('unlock it') to de-restrict it you immediately make it an e-moped not a bike. So you can't legally use it in cycle lanes/cycle routes. And if the Rozzers catch you they can confiscate and crush it. Unless of course you insure it as a an e-moped and only drive it on roads. www.gov.uk/electric-bike-rules. I think these things should probably be allowed on roads but definitely not on cycle lanes,down canals tow-paths and in parks etc. They are too heavy and fast - overpowered for use in those areas. You clearly want an e-moped not a bike. So just accept that.
Same with actual mopeds and 125s. They're all legal. But then they can be derestricted. It's all at your own risk isn't it. Fact is the bike as shipped is legal.
@@e-VRC Well if you dick around on cycle paths at 30 mph is also at everyone else's risk, isn't it? Just makes you a chav. I don't mind people who use these e-mopeds on roads - it can be safer to stay with the 20-30mph flow.But these things are and should stay banned from use on cycle paths.
I dont believe the motor rating on this one, particularly with it being 48 Volts. But I think iits the right sort of bike to get people out of their SUV's and it needs legislation to make it legal, which im sure if you break it down.
I think you might be right 😉 it's nice that if it comes throttle disabled and speed limited though it will still get you up hills and no one will get into trouble.
How can it be powering you over 20mph when by law assist supposed to cut out at 15mph this must be illegal.
Everything is illegal wake up

I was going to go for the Engine X ,,, but this has just changed my mind, the speed combined with the bmx bars I'm converted,,cheers bro excellent vids👍
Thanks for watching 👍 The engine x is a similar situation where a more powerful bike is classified as 250w so is also pretty fast. Just a case of which form factor you prefer. Both are great.
@@e-VRCi have Engwe x26 1370 watts 😃
@56679076 how long does sport mode last for on your bike? Does it lock you out of sport mode after being used for a certain amount of time?
@@e-VRC max speed 50km/h, last time with main battarey 27km and 40% left after ride
You can use cruise mode, you need to hold booster aprox. 8 seconds to get it on 😃
I would just like to thank you i saw this video a year ago when i was looking for a good ebike for the uk. Bit abit pricey for me after a year its my birthday i have enough looked at current videos and the reviews are still great so you were spot on! Get mine next week!!!
This bike has a lot in common to the RadRunner plus. I got the lower model of RadRunner 2 and I love it. The hills in my area that used to give me issues basically have melted away with that ebike. It is properly set to Canada's class 2 specification with a 500w motor and 32kph/20mph limiter on it. Would be nice to have the US limit of 750w but I feel bad where you are you are limited to only 250w. That said with the speed you were getting you clearly were doing more than 250w and it shows. In your own test data it kept up with another 750w bike.
Yeah i think this is there version of the Radrunner basically. I wish all 250w ebikes were done like this. Basically a lot more powerful but limited in speed.
Correct, the website (now) also mentions the 750w motor
Being forced to drive with the key on the battery is not very judicious : a false movement and here is the broken key flush with the barrel! We look stupid after.
It is in a dumbass place and im sure one day im going to forget and break it lifting it over a stile
Great up load as normal mate👌👌
Cheers!
I love a step thru bike, especially if youre a man of a certain age and adility!!
Definitely handy for that. But I love the casual-ness (real word?) If a step thru.
Mechanical disk brakes - Yuk 😩
Good quality cable still beats crappy hydraulics long term for me. My 375's are like new 1 year later, although the 203mm rotors made everything more 'solid' with the Shimano calipers.
What is the price?
Look legal be sensible you’ll probably get away with it for years
The max speed in the uk is 70mph, if your so determined to force limited speed on ebikes, insurance license etc then you must then consider all cars have limiter fitted to 70mph, after all they are already on HGV PCV and ebikes, its time then to fit them to cars.
I know I’m a Year late to the party. But after just buying my first e-bike 15.5mph is not fast enough realistically 20mph would be fine but it needs to have a bigger motor to get 20mph up a decent hill but it what it is.
Some parts of America remind me so much of the UK 😜
Excellent 250 w e-bike 😜 , very similar to the FIIDO T1 but that’s has a 20AH battery .
my t1 has 2x 24ah batterys and bac 855 controller 😊
Hmm. Looks OK, but after a bit of digging I discovered that (unsurprisingly) they are manufactured in China. This gives me some safety concerns regarding the battery. Are the batteries UN38.3 type tested, for example?
When chargingI sit the charger and battery in a metal wok under the fire alarm just in case lol
There is a new version in america l20 2.0 looks even better but appairenty its not coming to the UK acording to engway
I don't have a reference in front of me but there was a DoT variation that permitted throttle control. Downside is that a dealer has to take the bike to an MOT station to get it certified as legal. I was quoted £250 on top of a new bike cost for a test certificate. IF I could do it myself .. £55. Bureaucratic nonsense killed it stone dead for me.
Could I ask a question please, I've heard the charger or the cable is ABIT hit and miss do you recommend and alternative. And second question if you don't want this anymore can I please have it 😂 I'll pay can't afford it brand new 😅
Hello !
Wich one you prefer ? Engwe L20 or Ep2 pro?
(I do delivery job sometimes)
By the sound the bike is making I would say it is a planetary geared motor which gives more torque than a basic hub motor and this can be up to 3 times greater.
Showing better performance on hills. Planetary geared motors will need maintenance before a hub motor. There is always a sacrifice for basic power.
What sort of maintenance, Brian, my friend?😊
Brake's are trash,one thing they have same mount as hydraulics brakes so can be replaced Ez for any types from normal pedal bike ;)
Really nice Bike...unfortunately that same old rule applies. 250w Motor - 15.5 Max Speed there's no getting round it.Yes you can own a Bike with a larger Motor and stick as many Volts through it as you like, the problem is you can't legally ride it on the open road.
God forbid you ever whack into anyone e-VRC but if you ever do you'll be ruined financially when you have to dish out compo.
Obviously you're not insured, you can't be if you are riding Bikes that are not properly Certificated and so all this isn't going to end well. Do ride safely but more importantly legally !
Couldn't get the link to work but purchase an L20 because of your review... Its fantastic and am going to get two more when they are back in stock, cheers.
Nice one. Yeah it's great. Thanks for the heads up about the link I'll check that out 👍
Where can I buy this specific "250w" version from please? I dont want a real 250w one to arrive 😂
That e-bike isn't legal if it provides assist about 15mph, so let's be clear, its an ILLEGAL ELECTRIC MOTORCYCLE.
It looks just like the Fiido T1 Pro, which looks just like the Radrunner.
The Fiido is better IMO so I bought one - (bigger battery & hydraulic brakes).
Radrunner was one of the first ebikes I ever saw a review about cool bike. For me the Rad and the Fiido definitely look a bit more 'workhorse' and aren't quite as cool looking as the L20.
Replace those breaks with hydraulic breaks for about £45.
I had the same type of break on my fiido M21. They are a rubbish design and not good for very long at all!
You can buy a 50 cc moped that does 40mph so if uk wants you to have a. Licence for an ebike then speed should be same, after all they talking about insurance, licence and some sort of mot
EXCELLENT review. Loved watching it, Definitely swaying me to e-bikes.
(If the seat was a little bit higher your knees will hurt less?)
Thanks very much. Yeah I definitely have my seat too low. Welcome to the wonderful world of ebikes 😊
if they increased it to 750 watts, 20 mph, it will be absolutely fine. it is about getting up hills, big hills, against wind and 250 watts just dont cut it. people will get fed up trying to the climb hills, no fun. they just go back to combustion engines. even 500 watts 15.5 mph. would be ok. 250 watts is a joke.
Same bike, earlier than this one, all come from China, prob same factory..... I had a software fix off here UA-cam, no twist throttle which is what I wanted, but a thumb trigger, which is now a small bell fixed to the cut lever part, select status 2 on the controller and never pedal again, best I've had is 23mph, slight downhill, bell at max... ha ha.... if you can tell the bell is a thumb control, I would give you the bike... but of course I've never been asked... !!
because many people wouldn't dare to go on illegal bike it would be nice to see how is this model function restricted. acceleration, hill climb. will it even go up a hill 🤷♀️ And anyway what's the point to have 250 watt bike if you are doing it illegal? in this case I would go for a 1000 watt bike directly
I’m happy riding mine at 25mph max speed on open road. 10-15mph on sidewalks to avoid automobile traffic…
Unfortunately it’s to small for me I am 6ft 5 , 16st ,and also these bikes they either want full money or in 3 payments which there’s no way I can afford this , and also many people aswell .if you could spread the cost a little better then maybe .
And can you get e-bikes for taller people , what don’t cost the earth !! in these hard times we live in with the cost of living , repayments are massive to say the least .
Can you help in any way for information on this matter please ??
Are there any plans to review the LE20 cargo ebike that looks amazing deal with two batteries and middrive motor
@@kennethhutchinson5052 hopefully, I'll look into it 👍👍
It has been revised u can have e-bikes with 500w upto 20mph and with a throttle
Are the seats on this bike easly snapped off as some people have said about theirs which puts me off buying
I think 20mph would be a better limit, there is nothing more frustrating than hitting the brick wall at 15mm h, when you can easily achieve well over 20mph on a normal pedal bike.
Have you tried pedaling? In my 40's I managed to average over 25mph for a 100miles on a bike without assistance. You don't have to break the law or spend a lot of money all you do is get that fat off by training. Oh! And my bike looked cool and I could carry it without giving myself a hernia.
@@peterspowage5752 some younger friends bought emtb’s which are fun in the winter I wouldn’t manage an average of25mph for a long distance but quite often ride 70 +miles at a time on the road bike. Slowing down a bit to enjoy the scenery now I’m well into My 60’s.
anyone got any idea how it would perform with an unfortunately 105 kg rider ?
Looks like a Fiido T1 ..
How can it be legal if it has a throttle? I have the EP2 Pro. I was told it can’t even have one attached even if it’s not connected. Great video btw
Thanks for watching. Who told you that? If the thumb lever/twisty handle doesn't throttle anything it is no longer a throttle. Just a twisty handle 😂
Same bike, I feel if they can catch me they can give me a ticket. However if stopped by cycle police, I'm just gonna outrun them.
Make sure you film it. Killer content 🤟🤟👏👏👍
The law is it can't go over 3.7mph under throttle use.
@@Destide insane
It should be 30mph it's a nice speed and it get you out of trouble. If someone is going to hit you like a car on a bike that has reasonable power it can miss you when using throttle I should no it happened to me if I was on slower bike it would have been curtains for me. This legal shit is shot it the government trying to make money. When they see sales of ebikes go up that's what they do. Just say ebike had just came out last week the kits that can do 35mph the government would not bother police would not bother because they have more important things to do I've got bike that does 51mph the other day I was just doodle along doing about 23mph a guy on a racing bike come past me as if I wasn't there they haven't got to get registered. There is more people killed in cars than bikes the government should scrap cars and make ebikes legal. It would be easy to get around and cleaner for the planet
we're can i get one and how much is it guys let me know thanks
I think should @ least have insurance coz if you hit me were do I stand 😊
Good video though
I’ve zero interest in speed it’s the torque at back end that’s my bag , I don’t want to pedal much ( if atall ) and still pretend it’s a legal pedelec
On the U.S. website it says it’s 750w with 960w peak power.
At least they seem to know a bit more about power than the UK.
That's a nice bike but I doubt it could negotiate the hills where I live in Cornwall ? I think I would need something designed for off road.
This would be absolutely fine. I live in the lake district and ebikes smash the hills here and the hills are big
I'd have one for pootling along the main road to the shops etc, but into town involves steep hills, the whole law/insurance is a joke, why can't we ride on our car insurance, if we're riding the bike , we ain't driving the car, wouldn't the insurance bods prefer we were using a £1000 bike rather than a £3000 car??
That's actually a really good idea to add ebike insurance onto car. Especially of you own more than one ebike too.
@@e-VRC it used to be called a 6 wheeler, car and motorbike combined, why insure a car 365 days a year when you take a bike 100 days a year
And surely adding an ebike should decrease the price of the insurqnce too as we're not driving around the expensive car.
no because they don't want to make it cheaper for you
i have the same one and all is fine except the brakes theyre shit
You should demand they allow more watts in the UK and EU. We get the same bike with 750 watts in the US. #offwiththeirheads
Tbh i think they're exactly the same. But still #ofwiththeirheads for ither bikes 😂😂
Just be honest guys...is it gay to use this for a male? Letter people leave me alone
Can an adult and 10 year old ride together on this ?????????¿
Just got one the other day and it is so fun to ride, really comfortable and nippy as hell. Only issue i have is when i take the battery off to charge how do I protect the holder that the battery rests in from rain
Does the front basket come off or is it fixed
ENGWE UK are out of stock and dont seem to be replacing the stock? Any ideas?
It says in stock for me. Does it change when you try to buy it? I suppose you could email to find out when they'll be back.
30 mph is enough for me but if you want more fair play iike this one
Heavy bastard I liked c20 pro more
Speed limit should be 100% 20mph and power shouldn't be a limit
Agreed 👍 👍 👍
Can you please tell me, where to clear the 'Trip-Counter' in the display ??? It always shows the value of the whole driven distance ?!?
Brilliant review.. just bought one.. I am having trouble lifting the limited speed.
Please advise
@@MrTonka1972 what have you tried so far?
Does anyone know how to change the password as I can’t get into the bikes settings as I don’t know it
It looks like my bike when i was 12 its sad styling.
Hi. Have you tested the himiway escape pro? I can’t decide which will be best for me. This Engwe L20 or the himiway escape pro. I have arthritis so need a good suspension and easy ride no resistance. I know they’re both heavy bikes but which would be best for a woman?
Not tried the himiway. I love this bike but it sounds like you'd benefit from rear suspension.
So is this completely street legal in the uk
No top limit..There are enough regulations
