EBIKE CAFE @ Deheers would like you to meet the Knaap two-seater

Spring is in the air, and EBIKE Cafe @ Deheers on Custom House Quay, Weymouth has just become the very first local partner of the coolest and most innovative eBike in the cycling market. The Knaap two-seater eBike out of Amsterdam provides more people than ever before with the opportunity to use cycling for physical and mental health and wellbeing.

The brand new Knaap two-seater, pedal-assisted eBike can carry up to 28-stone (180kg). This means that any type of rider, young or old, large or small, can now enjoy cycling with all the physical and mental health benefits associated with outdoor exercise. The Knaap bikes provide a powered motor in the rear wheel to give a level of assistance that helps the rider reach a maximum speed of 15 mph whilst gently spinning the pedals, meaning that almost anyone, of any level of fitness, weight and ability can ride these bikes.

The great benefit of the Knaap bikes, in particular, is that they are road legal for carrying two riders, meaning commuting back into work could soon look a lot different. They have the largest battery in the eBike industry; enough to carry one rider over 80 miles and two riders north of 30 miles at speeds of up to 25 kmh.

Knaap Bikes were recently awarded the ‘Innovation from a Newcomer’ in Cycling Industry BikeBiz Awards, voted for by UK independent cycle retailers. The bikes have been described by industry insiders as “The most Instagramable bikes ever” and, in one glance, you can see they have combined retro with supercool, to appeal to every age group. They even say, “If Steve McQueen was alive today, you could see him riding one of these.”

If you’re looking for a cool ride around town that’s as good for your street cred as it is for the environment, then the EBIKE Cafe has the answer. With its clean lines, urban style and impressive features including a unique two-seater base, the Knaap bike has taken the eBike market by storm, grabbing the attention and custom of some of the world’s leading sports stars, leisure brands and entertainment names. Peter Claxton, Co-Owner of EBIKE Cafe, tells us more:

“We are really excited to be teaming up with Knaap Bikes and giving our customers the chance to own one of the world’s coolest eBikes. I know the bike is going to be a big hit locally, among both our die-hard cycle enthusiasts and our customers looking for a stylish and environmentally-friendly way of getting around.”
