The eSpresso City 400 EQ has one of the lowest, widest step-throughs available, making it the perfect partner for urban riding. It's comfortable and practical, with a relaxed riding position and smooth, reliable pedal assistance from Shimano's EP6 motor with 85Nm of torque and a 504Wh battery.
Mudguards, lights, a lock, rack and kickstand all come fitted as standard, so you're ready to go the moment you leave the shop. Fast-rolling 700c wheels suit town riding, cycle paths and gravel tracks, and the wide Maxxis Metropass tyres add grip and comfort, with reflective sidewall strips for better visibility in low light.
A tapered head tube gives confident handling, and Shimano hydraulic disc brakes with 180mm rotors are strong but easy to control. The eSpresso City is approved for a combined rider and luggage weight of up to 150kg, so there's plenty of capacity for you and your shopping.
