Thanks to a huge back-to-school promotion, this electric assist hybrid bike drops below €1,000.
We often forget, but the government has made cycling a priority to reduce pollution and congestion in cities. Thus, financial aid for purchasing an electric assist bike, whether city, cargo, tricycle, folding, or others, should be considered when choosing. In addition, competition in the cycling world is currently phenomenal. Too many new players have entered the market to ride this wave, and prices are now being halved or even divided by three. Who could have thought, just two years ago, that a high-end hybrid bike would be worth less than €1,000!
Decathlon and its experience with cycling need no introduction. Perhaps it’s worth recalling their very comprehensive range. Under the B’twin label, the French sports equipment giant has made its mark. From there, smaller branches have grown, such as Rockrider mountain bikes, Triban road bikes, Oxylane folding bikes, and Elops urban bikes. And then there are Riverside bikes, these true Swiss Army knives of two wheels, which is where our model of the day fits in.
The 520 E succeeds the best-seller 500 E and features the well-known Riverside frame with a fully integrated electric part. It is equipped with hydraulic disc brakes, a Suntour fork (63 mm travel), and an 8-speed Microshift derailleur. Suitable for urban use, it can optionally fit fenders. The 520 E shares the motor component of the 500 E, which is a very good thing! The 250W motor unit embedded in the rear hub delivers a satisfying torque of 42 Nm. Three assistance modes allow everyone to pedal at their own pace.
The major strength of this e-bike is its 500 Wh lithium-ion battery, allowing it to approach 100 km on a single charge. For obvious marketing reasons, Decathlon states “more than 100 km,” but approaching that figure is already more than enough.
It was already a good deal at €1,399. At €999, it becomes a promotion not to be missed.
