With its classic British styling, powerful hub motor and robust components, the Hybrid AL e is built for riders who want to elevate their daily commutes and recreational rides to a whole new level. Durable mixed-surface tyres and everyday accessories give you the versatility to take the long route home or inject adventure into your daily ride routine.
The perfect blend of style, comfort and efficiency, the Hybrid AL e combines features and technology with classic British styling. Fully equipped for the fast-paced city lifestyle and countryside cruises, it features a rear rack for your favourite luggage and mudguards to fend off the dirt and keep your rides spray-free.
At home in the city and on the trails, this cycle scheme-approved bike is ideal for those who want to enjoy the benefits of cycling without being limited by terrain or distance.
Our compact MAHLE X35+ motor delivers 40Nm of torque, giving you the power to conquer variable gradients and headwinds with ease. Integrated seamlessly into the rear hub, the motor provides smooth and natural-feeling pedal assistance, making this bike almost indistinguishable from a regular non-assisted bike. It offers three assistance levels with a peak power of 250W, so you can push it up to the maximum for those more difficult climbs or when you need an extra boost.
Crafted from 6061-T6 aluminium with bump-absorbing carbon forks, the frameset is fast, durable, and smooth over diverse terrain. The Hybrid AL e delivers unmatched strength and a premium finish by blending heat-treated construction with seamless weld technology. Weighing in at less than 15kg, you get all the benefits of a smart e-bike with none of the compromises. Its lightweight design means you can easily carry the bike upstairs at a train station or lift it onto a bike rack on a car, making it as convenient as it is capable.
A slimline 250Wh Panasonic battery discreetly concealed within the frame's downtube offers up to 60 miles of pure riding pleasure across varied terrain. An optional range extender boosts the capacity to 456Wh for even greater freedom, ensuring that no adventure is out of reach and leaving plenty in reserve to make it home easily.
Whether you're getting ready for a casual day trip, commuting to work, or just running errands, the Hybrid AL e has got you covered. Durable, rattle-free mudguards keep dirt at bay, keeping you clean and comfortable. A sturdy pannier rack lets you securely store your belongings, so you're all set for any new adventure.
