Because for me a bike a mode of transport, not exercise.

Nah, double down or go home.

Oh, like that. As I mentioned before, I'll be using it in pretty flat terrain. A small one minute hill here and there maybe, but nothing crazy.mostly inner city use.

To some probably. You mean like... a highway overpass?

100% agree, Kinda dislike the gears on the Willier... other than that it's perfect. Maybe I'll install a belt myself 😅

I didn't say it needs to look like a traditional bike though, just not like an ebike. I also expressed how I have a preference for the frame the wilier has in my first post.

Just personal preference, don't like the look of them.

Her Belgian ID has been revoked. :p It's called ragoût de bœuf in French.

Not a big fan of mussels myself. You should ask her about Stoofvlees. That together with fries... heaven.

In the relatively flat part of the country, the northern bit. I have a couple of very small hills to do, but nothing major.

That's actually in my original post. I think it's a gorgeous bike! But the logistics and the added cost of getting it over here, not to mention regulatory because of it's speed... would be more headache then it's worth.

That specialized doesn't look half bad! And it's also available through lease at the company... Though if I'd have to choose the Wilier looks better :D But I'll keep it in mind.

I don't know if you've read my original post, or... the title, but I'm looking for something minimalist/ not like an ebike 😅This would be the opposite of that

I've checked them out, but they are so, so ugly. Just not my thing at all.

Something like that, yeah. We pay for half the lease with either 5 holidays (of the 38 we get), or part of our end year bonus. How many days/ money depends on the price of the bike. The other half the company pays. You of course get all the benefits of a lease, full theft/ damage insurance, and...

What do you think about this bike? https://wilier.com/en/my2023/int/leisure-bikes/e-bikes/triestina-hybrid It's certainly in a higher price range, but I can get it as a lease through work, so... very interesting. It doesn't have belt drive, but it certainly looks the part.

That's a good point about regulations being stricter in the EU. I have found a couple though that come close. For instance the "Fixie Inc backspin" Which uses a really interesting backhub that houses everything, even the battery. This bike I can get in Belgium for 910. The materials are really...

Hello everybody, I am new to the forum and am looking for a specific type of ebike in Europe (Belgium specifically)! I've found a couple of models, but sadly, they are only available in the US. To give you an idea of what I like, I'm in love with the Ride1up Roadster V2 and The Luna Fixed...
