What is an urban e-bike?

Urban e-bikes are perfectly tailored to city traffic. With as little as possible, but essential equipment and dynamic geometry, the bikes do not take up much space and are your perfect and practical companion. Especially for people who work in the city and have to commute every day, urban e-bikes are the best means of transportation.

Combined with an electric motor, the wheels provide plenty of support while driving. Arrive at the office sweaty? - That was yesterday! The motors work with a rechargeable battery, which is charged regularly and helps the riders to reach high speeds in no time. This way you can adapt to the flowing traffic in the best possible way and are even environmentally friendly on the road. Sensors measure your pedaling motion and the motor provides exactly the support you need to maintain your speed.

Most motors of urban e-bikes have 250 watts. Thus, the bikes can accelerate to a speed of up to 25 km/h. In addition, urban e-bikes are very compact, so you can easily take your bike with you on the bus or train.

Urban e-bikes have a number of features that speak for them. Thanks to their wider tires, they offer you a pleasant riding experience on all roads. In addition, there is a practical luggage rack, which is attached to most urban e-bikes. The bikes also have a lot to offer in terms of design! They come in various subtle and urban colors.

All these features make the Urban E-Bike so ideal for urban traffic.

Fast and flexible through city traffic

Urban e-bikes are a better alternative to cars in city traffic. Especially in terms of sustainability, urban e-bikes are the clear winner. And even when it comes to long-lasting and annoying traffic jams, your e-bike is the clearly better option. In addition, you save yourself the search for a parking space and parking fees.

Thanks to the supportive electric motor, you can ride all longer distances without any problems. You are not only actively doing something for yourself, your health and your fitness, but also for the environment - and without any effort.

Urban e-bikes - the most popular manufacturers

There are a variety of different manufacturers that produce urban e-bikes for the urban area. We at velio offer you brands like Cube, Kalkhoff, Victoria, Conway and Scott, among others.

Alle Fahrräder, die Du in unserem Shop findest, stammen aus hochwertigen Quellen und wurden individuell von uns ausgewählt. Nachhaltigkeit und Qualität stehen dabei bei uns an erster Stelle. Genau deshalb werden alle unsere Bikes gründlich geprüft. Dadurch stellen wir sicher, dass Du ein qualitativ hochwertiges Bike erhältst, dass Dir Fahrspaß und Verlässlichkeit garantiert.

Our goal is to give everyone access to sustainable mobility - through bikes and e-bikes at affordable prices. We are convinced that too many bikes, which are no longer used but could still bring a lot of joy to new owners, are gathering dust in garages or are simply disposed of. That is why we have made it our business to refurbish used bikes. Our models are of high quality and not older than three years. Before the sale, all our bikes are subjected to a complete inspection in our own master workshop - so you don't have to worry about the quality of your new used bike.

Why buy a used urban e-bike?

There are several reasons why someone might prefer a used e-bike over a new one. The most important reason is probably the cost factor. Our bikes are cheaper than the new bikes and that with the same quality. So you save yourself a lot of money while doing something for yourself and the world. Most people shy away from the new prices of e-bikes. We want to offer affordable alternatives and thus make it easier for everyone to access e-bikes.

Your decision to buy a used urban e-bike instead of a new one is also a step towards environmental protection and sustainability, because no new bike has to be produced for you. By switching from a car to an e-bike, you also reduce your CO₂ emissions.

What should you look for when buying your used urban e-bike?

When you buy a used e-bike, you should pay attention to a few things. The most important thing is the size of the frame. Make sure that it fits you and your body size. If you are not sure which frame size you need, we can help you find out with our Bike Finder. Additionally, you should make sure that the bike fits your needs. There are three main types of e-bikes that you can find here:

Of course, the condition of your used car is also important. That's exactly what you don't have to worry about when buying from velio. All our bikes are in a high quality condition. Also make sure that the lighting of your new urban e-bike is StVZO-certified, so that you can move safely on the roads and be easily recognized.

Urban e-bike with gears

Last but not least, urban e-bikes usually have a gear system with fewer gears, since these are simply less needed in city traffic than in the countryside. Here, you're more likely to find three to eleven gears with hub or derailleur gears.

If you want to go shopping quickly on your way home from work, your e-bike should also have a luggage rack or bike basket attached.

Urban e-bikes with removable battery

The battery is probably the heart of an urban e-bike. Most urban e-bikes have a frame battery, which can be found in various positions:

  • Horizontal on the lower frame part - This position gives the e-bike a central and lowest possible center of gravity. The battery is well protected from environmental influences and can be easily removed or replaced.

  • Integrated in the frame - Here, the battery is not even visible at first glance. It is perfectly protected from environmental influences, which can significantly increase its service life.

The positioning of the battery brings the advantage that the center of gravity of the bike remains central and it thus remains naturally balanced. However, the battery must be removable in order to be able to charge it at home or between two rides. Additionally, removing the battery reduces the weight of the bike, making it easier to carry.

Urban e-bikes for women and men

Whether low entry, sleek geometry, bright, friendly accents or dark, striking colors, both women and men will find their dream bike at velio. Our experts will advise you according to your personal requirements and recommend the model that best suits you.
