We see a lot of E-bikes throughout the year but there are always one or two bikes that just make us say WOW! Keep reading to find out more about the bikes that really impressed our staff in 2023!
Specialized Levo SL – Sam and Steph
The Specialized Levo SL is the ultimate E-bike for those who love the thrill of riding a full suspension mountain bike, but want a little extra boost on the climbs. This bike is light, agile, and powerful to ride, with a sleek design that looks and feels like a regular MTB. The Levo SL has a 320Wh battery that delivers up to 240W of assistance, giving you enough juice for a full day of riding.
Sam and I LOVED riding the Specialized Levo SL demo bikes last autumn. They were the perfect balance between powering up the steep Torlundy climb and feeling light and nimble on the technical descents. We easily had 7 runs keeping the bike in Turbo on the climbs and dropping to Trail for the descents. The Levo SL handled everything we threw at it, from rocks and roots to the thickest mud ever seen. They were the perfect bike for when the uplift finished and the rain started pouring down. There was nothing like a Turbo Levo SL to put a smile on our faces, we didn’t want to give them back!
If you’re looking for a bike that has the feel of a top end full suspension bike with the power to tackle any climb, the Specialized Levo SL is the one for you. Come and see us at Off Beat Bikes to find out more.
Cube Stereo Hybrid 160 Action Team – Foss
The Cube Stereo Hybrid 160 Action Team is the Ebike for those who want to push their limits and ride harder, faster, and for longer. This bike is a beast, with a robust frame, a powerful Bosch motor, and a 750Wh battery that gives you plenty of range.
Foss uses his Cube Stereo Hybrid 160 every week for a quick lap before work. It makes light work of the rough trails, eating up rocks and roots for an effortless ride. Don’t be mistaken, you still get a workout from this beast. The Bosch Ebike system is just there to give you more time on the trails before speeding to work. Foss loves the versatility of the Stereo Hybrid 160, as he can ride it on any terrain, from smooth singletrack to gnarly downhill. He says it’s the most fun he’s ever had on a bike, and we believe him!
If you’re looking for a bike that can handle anything, the Cube Stereo Hybrid 160 Action Team is the one for you. It’s available in different sizes and colours, and you can customise it with your choice of components and accessories. Come and see us at Off Beat Bikes to find out more, or book a demo ride and experience the Stereo Hybrid 160 for yourself.
