Could you make use of the Knaap's huge rider capacity? cycling
Typically, bikes and e-bikes have a maximum carrying capacity of 100-120kg, and you might find yourself in a fix if you weigh more than that. Knaap reckons it has the answer with its range of 20 inch-wheeled e-bikes with a maximum rider capacity of 180kg.
"With 64% of the UK adult population over 14 stone, the larger market is both totally underrepresented AND there are almost not feasible solutions – until now," says Knaap. The range consists of three models: The Black and Space Grey editions have RRPs of £2,449 and the RTD costs £3,449. Each gets an aluminium frame and a removable Samsung 21Ah battery that gives a 140km range.
The RTD model has aluminium mudguards and suspension both front and rear, while the cheaper models have rear suspension only. The bikes are no lightweights themselves, weighing in at 32kg with a definite view on robustness and low maintenance rather than weight saving. For example, there's a 1,200w front light and the spokes are made of stainless steel., so stay tuned for our full verdict coming soon...
