Review

It is the simpler sister of the LD 920 E: same idea of riding many kilometres a day in the city, but with a rear-wheel motor and a much lower price.

Its 504 Wh battery is one of the largest in its price range, and the torque sensor makes the assistance follow your pedalling smoothly.

Pros

  • Big battery (504 Wh) for the price
  • Torque sensor: natural assistance
  • Available with high and step-through frame

Cons

  • Hub motor: less refined on long climbs
  • Weight and components not confirmed on the listing
Ideal for

People who ride long city trips every day and want range without paying for a mid-drive motor.

Recommended terrain

City and bike lanes, with gentle hills.

Value for money

6,8 / 10 (estimated from the scores and the reference price).

How many km will you get?

Indicative estimate with our formula based on the 504 Wh battery (how we calculate it). Not a manufacturer figure.
