🚲 We handed Electroheads the new VOLT Urban LS with one simple challenge: can it make London feel manageable?
They didn't go easy on it.
One full day in the saddle. Borough Market to Big Ben, Buckingham Palace to Hampstead Heath, taking on busy cycleways, heavy city traffic and some seriously steep climbs.
A few things they uncovered along the way:
⚡ How the UK's first Bafang 3-speed automatic motor handles real London streets?
🔋 Exactly how far a single day's charge took them across the capital?
🛡️ The battery safety detail most e-bike reviews skip straight past?
So, did the Urban LS survive the toughest test yet? Electroheads gave their full, honest verdict, and it's well worth hearing.

Travel writer Ed Wiseman chose the British-built Volt Connect to ride from London to Paris and credits it with getting him through the toughest sections of his five-day cross-Channel journey.
Why the Connect? It's built for exactly this kind of trip:
🔋 80+ miles range in eco mode
⚙️ Bafang M200 crank-drive motor that responds to how you ride
🛑 Shimano 9-speed gears and hydraulic disc brakes
🛣️ Lockout suspension forks and hybrid tyres - happy on towpaths, country lanes, and everything in between
"Enabled me to complete sections I would have struggled with on my own," Ed told The Times.
That's the whole point of a great e-bike - not doing the work for you, but opening up rides you'd otherwise leave on the wishlist.
