Best Decathlon e-bikes in 2026

Our ranking of Decathlon e-bikes by criteria-based rating, with the best and worst of each.

This ranking orders the models we have analysed by their editor's rating: the average of six criteria (range, climbing, lightness, off-road, city use and affordability) calculated with public formulas. A bike with missing data cannot score on that criterion.

There is no “best bike” for everyone: an e-MTB scores low in the city and a folding bike is no good in the mountains. Use the ranking as a starting point and the terrain recommender to fine-tune.

  1. Decathlon's most high-tech city bike: mid-drive motor with automatic gearbox and a huge battery for its category. Made for people who ride many kilometres a day in the city and don't want to think about gears.

    ✓ Automatic gearbox: no worries about gears✗ High launch price for a city bike

  2. 29" hardtail with a 70 Nm Brose motor and 630 Wh battery: lots of range for long mountain rides.

    ✓ 70 Nm and 630 Wh✗ No rear suspension

  3. Rockrider's top-of-the-range e-MTB: Shimano EP801 motor with 85 Nm, RockShox suspension and 630 Wh.

    ✓ Shimano EP801 with 85 Nm✗ The most expensive mountain bike in the range

  4. Electric all-mountain bike with a Shimano EP6 motor with 85 Nm and 160/150 mm of suspension: to descend hard and climb without suffering.

    ✓ 85 Nm: climbs almost anything✗ High price

  5. Long-distance city bike with a large 504 Wh battery and a 45 Nm rear motor with torque sensor, at a sensible price.

    ✓ Big battery (504 Wh) for the price✗ Hub motor: less refined on long climbs

  6. Rockrider's cheapest all-round e-bike: low step-through frame, removable battery and suspension fork for around 1.000 €.

    ✓ Very affordable (around 1.000 €)✗ Hub motor: less natural on long climbs

  7. The most complete full-suspension e-MTB in the range: 70 Nm Brose motor, 140 mm of travel at both ends and a dropper post.

    ✓ 70 Nm of torque: climbs with ease✗ Costs 1.000 € more than the E-EXPL 520

  8. The entry point to Decathlon's electric mountain bikes: hardtail, simple and the cheapest in the range. Perfect for tracks and dirt roads, not for technical trails.

    ✓ The cheapest e-MTB in the range✗ 42 Nm rear motor: tight on steep ramps

  9. Decathlon's most balanced hardtail e-MTB with a Yamaha mid-drive motor: 500 Wh, 130 mm fork and 29" wheels for under 2.000 €.

    ✓ Yamaha mid-drive motor✗ 50 Nm: just enough on very steep ramps

  10. Folding e-bike to combine with train, metro or car. Removable battery and compact size, in exchange for less range and a more modest motor.

    ✓ Folds and travels with you by train or car✗ 252 Wh battery: short range

  11. Step-through city bike with a 417 Wh battery and rear motor, designed for everyday riding in town.

    ✓ 417 Wh battery✗ 35 Nm: just enough on steep hills

  12. Decathlon's most affordable full-suspension bike with a mid-drive motor. A clear step up from a hardtail for trails with rocks and roots.

    ✓ Full suspension and mid-drive motor at a sensible price✗ 26,2 kg weight

  13. Decathlon's best-selling hybrid in Spain: rear motor, 418 Wh and a sensible reference price. The sensible choice for city and easy trails.

    ✓ Sensible reference price✗ Rear motor, less natural than a mid-drive

  14. Electric gravel bike with a 70 Nm Brose mid-drive motor and 500 Wh: for long gravel routes with climbing.

    ✓ 70 Nm mid-drive motor✗ High price

  15. Van Rysel's entry-level electric gravel bike: light (17,7 kg), with 11-speed Shimano CUES and a removable battery for mixed tarmac and dirt rides.

    ✓ Very light for an e-bike (17,7 kg)✗ 35 Nm: little help on steep ramps

  16. Aluminium electric road bike with Mahle X35 and Shimano 105: discreet help so you don't get dropped by the group.

    ✓ Looks like a regular road bike✗ Tarmac only

  17. Light electric gravel bike with the discreet Mahle X35 system: it looks like a regular bike and helps right when you need it.

    ✓ Almost invisible: looks like a regular bike✗ 40 Nm: gentle assistance

How to read this ranking

Mountain bikes tend to be penalised on affordability and city use, and city bikes on off-road. If you'll ride on a specific terrain, the recommender weights the criteria for that terrain.
