The Lectro Urban City provides an assisted range of of up to 45km from its powerful 36 Volt 8.8Ah battery. Rather than having a throttle, the motor helps you along when you start to pedal. With a 7 speed Shimano Nexus drivetrain you can still choose a comfortable gear and select the level of motor assistance you require depending on the terrain. Assisted E-bikes are limited to about 15 mph (25kph) and do not require any form of insurance, should you wish the Urban City can be ridden without the battery as a regular bike. The Lectro Urban City is the ideal choice for riders looking for a simple low maintenance e-bike solution. Its 700c wheels, lightweight aluminium frame and Suntour suspension fork are ideal for unpredictable city streets and is also at home on paths and tracks away from the urban sprawl. Fitted with a Shimano Nexus 7 speed transmission for quick easy gear selections. The Urban City has all the gear ratios you will ever need for life in or around the city. The adjustable angle stem and comfort handlebar create a comfortable upright riding position that's easy on the back and allows great visibility. The Urban City is supplied "naked" but there's clearance for mudguards and a rack if you want to equip it for the wet or carry some extra luggage. And, when you need that extra push, the 250 watt brushless motor can be engaged to help you power up those gradients. The 36 Volt lithium ion power pack sits neatly in the down tube of the bike frame to help lower the centre of gravity. The handlebar module lets you select the level of assistance required and displays the battery condition, a 4-5 hour charge will give you around 45km of assisted riding.

I recently took my dated and tired old racing bike along to Leeli Cycles for some much needed work. I was cheerfully greeted by Ben the very friendly owner and number one mechanic. He suggested a full service and looked over the bike to access the condition of the other cycle components. A very comprehensive quote was later emailed to me listing all the parts that Ben would require to complete the job. He phoned me as soon as my bike was ready and I hurried along to pick it up. My first reaction was, wow! It looked as good as new and fully roadworthy again. Ben had done an incredible job in transforming my old racer back to its former glory! I'm very pleased to have used Leeli Cycles along with Ben's wealth of mechanical knowledge, sound advice and attention to detail. Even happier still to support this amazing small local business offering great value and excellent customer service. An outstanding shop in every way for all your cycling needs with the personal touch. Pop in and see for yourself. I guarantee you won't be dissapointed.
