27.5" Electric Mountain Bike E-ST 100 - BLUE 4 sizes £899.99 @ Decathlon

I'm getting really confused with trying to work out the cost of charging a battery.

I've looked at some sites that say 10-15p but then others that say £5.

I was looking at a 36v battery bike 10ah. I think I deduced it would cost around £3 at 85p per kWh.....someone please correct me if well out.

For those that do not know.....decathlon is part of some cycle to work schemes so you could also get the tax breaks from salary sacrifice. I've been looking at decathlon because of this. (edited)

I've got a much more expensive Ebike (that I worked very hard to be able to buy), but if this was all I was able to afford I would buy it in a heartbeat, great value for the money. (edited)

Any at this price with throttle?

Decathlon are good for making decent budget bikes but I'm not sure what this offering is for.

It's not a good enough mountain bike to give a decent off-road experience and as it's a mountain bike it will be a rather poor commuter.

Don't forget cyclists red means stop.

Got 1 similar EST 500, had about 3 years from here. Motor just packed up, it gave up whilst I was few miles from home, its a beast to cycle without the motor, also had pannier bags full of shopping. Weighed a ton!
Can you repair/change motor or are they sealed up? I had power, as was still showing on display, just motor gave up. Will I have to get a new wheel?

Does this model stop at traffic lights, pedestrian crossings, & not go the wrong way up one way streets? If so I might be interested.

It's not what I would want to spend £900 on. I self built buying a hardtail and fitted a bafang bbs02 and a 16Ah hailong battery and was still a couple of hundred less than this. (edited)

is this any good? seems I can use it with cycle to work scheme

I had this bike, wasn't the best motor I have tried not the worse, bit slow to accerlate to 15mph

With ebike prices starting to come down I think it's about time they offered something of an amnesty for petrol dirt bikes, where you can trade them in for a voucher for something like this. Would still be idiots riding them, but they're a hell of a lot less disruptive and damaging.

Better to get this or get a bike on the cycle to work scheme?
