“Excellent all-rounder.. great handling & a powerful motor engineered into a proper go-anywhere hybrid. I needed the ability to cycle to the countryside at the weekends but use it in the town in the week. A great choice. Two things to mention . this is a hybrid and you're trading away top speed for bottom end power - and, unlike an ordinary bike , you can't mess with the gearing to change this.. second, the standard tyres have an off road profile which didn't go very well with wet tarmac. I swapped for Schwalbe MotoX which are perfect.”
“I LOVE THIS BIKE ! I'm not really the type to write reviews but I simply could not help it with this one. Having recently come back from Ibiza and reflecting back on all the adventures my partner and I had, as well as how much we enjoy our London commutes, it was a must to share. The bike feels really solid and safe while the speed options and the super smooth comfort level of the ride makes it impossible not to enjoy. The seat adjustment option is def game changer I can never go back on, especially for city living. And the on road/off road capacity of this bike means I can take it on adventures with me all over the world and really explore. Making memories that simply would not be possible otherwise. The inbuilt GPS is probably my favourite feature as it makes exploring and getting around so much easier and fun. And of course the carrier adds that important level of practicality when going on long trips or doing the weekly shopping. The battery charge seems to never be an issue and all in all I really couldn't be happier with this purchase. The team at Fully Charged were also a real pleasure to connect with and I highly recommend them too.”
Maria, what a pleasure to hear about the mantic journeys with your Xroad. Glad it's performing so well and we hope to see you should you pass through London on your intrepid travels.
“Great bike, used extensively on road & bumpy tracks. I enjoy the power of the Bosch motor which gives me greater range and allows me to steadily work my way up steep hills. Range is excellent with 60km using up just over half of the battery life, typically using a mix of Tour & Sport modes, with the occasional burst of Turbo. This was a recommendation from FullyCharged and a better option than what I had originally planed, being ideal both on and (lightly) off-road. Very happy!”
