The SUV of e-bikes in NZ
Electric bikes with easy step through frames don't get any more stylish than the Besv Jaguar JS1. This is the premium pathway bike model on the New Zealand market for leisure biking. As well as being a stunning design it's a smooth and powerful ride with a 250W motor and battery hidden in the front tube of the frame.
The user interface gives power reading, speed, time, and is integrated into one unit with the powerful front headlight. It's a very user-friendly experience as well as being, of course, incredibly stylish as per everything we have come to expect from German brand Besv.
