🚲 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.

Cally loves her VOLT Regent. Cycling around Bath has become effortless, the hills are easily overcome, and the Regent’s upright riding position gives her a real sense of comfort and safety on the road.

Whether she’s out enjoying a leisurely ride or using it for shopping trips around the city, the Regent has become part of her everyday life. It’s no surprise both her friend and sister now own VOLT bikes too.

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.

Neil talks us through his VOLT Metro ⚡️

What started as a need for a solid commuter e-bike has now become something he rides just as much for enjoyment. While many see it as a city bike, Neil takes it further, out onto country roads where the bigger wheels and suspension really come into their own.

Neil has been a VOLT customer since 2012. Now on his second Metro, with over 4000 miles already clocked! 🚲🔋
