If you’re after a well-priced, highly versatile city e-Bike then you’re in for a treat, because Ridgeback is extremely excited to present the new Errand, a bike that makes it easy to do all sorts of things and do them without a car.
It’s called the Errand because the ‘I’m-just-popping-out-for-a-bit’ wasn’t quite as catchy, but that really is the idea behind this bike: make the ultimate utility bike for urban riding, something you’ll ride whether you’re commuting to work, off down to the pub, meeting some friends in town or basically going anywhere that’s a bit too far to walk.
At Ridgeback we already have a comprehensive range of e-Bikes, but the new Errand really does offer something different. With 20” wheels it’s been designed with maximum manoeuvrability in mind because it’s paramount when you’re trying to get around in any urban environment, and that paired with the 2” wide tyres makes for a perfect combination of agility and comfort.
Don’t be fooled by the Errand’s compact appearance, either. The geometry has been designed with all riders in mind so believe us when we tell you that it’ll fit you whether you’re 5’4” or 6’4”. It’s not magic, just a cunning piece of modern, compact frame design.
Running on a Promovec system, the Errand combines a 54Nm motor with a 375Wh battery which not only provides the pedal assistance but powers the lights too. Combine that with the mudguards that come as standard and the front rack for carrying anything you need – as well as rear mounts if you want to add another rack - and the Errand really is ready for almost any occasion straight out of the box.
Brodie Gardias, Sportline Senior Brand Manager, said: “The Errand is a great addition to the Ridgeback range. It’s a proper utility e-Bike that makes it easy for people to get out and do things on two wheels that might previously have only seemed accessible by car. We’ve worked hard to make such a good bike for a really competitive price, so you don’t feel like you’re spending car money either.”
The Errand is available now in three colours – blue, black and red – and RRP is just £1799.99. Contact your local sales manager or visit SportlineB2B.co.uk to order or find out more.
