Gravel AL e

Our e-bikes are pedal-assisted models and require rider input at all times.

You can test ride any of our e-bikes and receive expert buying advice at our flagship Clitheroe showroom. Please contact the showroom in advance so that we can ensure that any suitable bikes you wish to test are available for your visit. During the summer months, we also host demo events across the UK. For details of the dates and timings of these events, please refer to our events page.

Alternatively, you can hire the e-bike from E-Venture Bikes in Keswick; the rental cost will then be deducted from your purchase should you decide to buy one of our e-bikes.

Don't worry; being a pedal-assisted model means you are always in full control. The motor simply provides a little extra boost when a power assist level is selected while you pedal. It does not take over.

No, pedal-assisted electric bikes do not require you to hold a valid driver’s licence, pay any road tax or take out insurance. Having some form of insurance on all bikes is always good practice.

To charge the battery, you simply plug the bike into a conventional household power socket using the supplied charger and cable. An optional range extender can also charge the main battery if a socket is not close at hand.

The electric components used on our e-bikes are IP54-rated. They are protected against splashing but not against full immersion. The electric bike should never be subjected to pressurised water from a hose pipe or jet wash; failure to adhere to this may damage the motor system's electrical components . When transporting the bike outside of a vehicle, a waterproof cover should be used to protect the electronic components from water ingress during transportation.

The Gravel AL e's range depends upon several factors, including rider weight, route profile, tyre pressures and temperature. A rider of 90kg on a varied route, including climbs, descents and flats, can expect an approximate range of up to 60 miles. An optional range extender is also available for all our e-bikes, adding an extra 70% range.

A MAHLE-certified technician can easily access the battery through the bottom bracket shell. The press-fit bottom bracket must be removed to facilitate the removal of the battery.

Like any battery, it will degrade over time, in this case, after approximately 500 charging cycles. Please take some time to read our battery care blog in which we outline the best practices to maximise the performance of your e-bike's battery.

All the cables are routed internally, including compatibility with Shimano Di2 electronic systems. Dropper posts cannot be accommodated due to the battery being located in the down tube.
