A bike that you can just get on and ride with the minimum of fuss is one that's great to have around. That was our goal with the Touring Hybrid Deluxe SLX, and we reckon we nailed it. Shimano's 5-speed hub gears are simple to use, durable and low maintenance... which makes them the perfect companion for Bosch's powerful PX motor, an 800Wh battery and a clean, quiet Gates belt drive. An air-sprung suspension fork and parallelogram suspension seatpost add comfort on even rough roads, and strong Shimano hydraulic disc brakes deliver reliable performance in all weathers. With the Semi-Integrated Carrier 2.1, lighting set, mudguards and kickstand, it'll slot right into your life.
Frame description
The Touring Hybrid is designed to be versatile, easy to live with and comfortable. That's why we started with our neat, sturdy Semi-Integrated Carrier 2.1 – because it makes it simple to carry what you need with you. There's an ACID chain guard, kickstand, full-length mudguards and lighting set, too. The powerful Bosch Performance PX motor, 800Wh PowerTube battery and Intuvia 200 display are so neatly integrated into the design, you'll barely notice they're there – apart from the extra help at the pedals, of course. And Efficient Comfort Geometry is designed around a 100mm-travel suspension fork for smooth and confidence-inspiring steering, even on rough roads.
