The all-new Dawes Spire 1.0 Low Step electric bike is a highly versatile hybrid, ideal for everything from daily commuting and shopping trips to leisurely rides through country parks and along canal towpaths. Featuring a low step frame design, it combines ease of use with practical functionality. The bike is powered by a 360Wh battery integrated seamlessly into the frame, providing over 28 miles (45km) of assisted pedaling on a single charge. The reliable Bafang rear hub motor, known for its excellent build quality and value, delivers 32Nm of torque, ensuring smooth power delivery for climbing hills and cruising on flat terrain.

The high quality Samsung battery can be charged on or off the bike, with a full charge achievable within 5 hours. It is easily removable without tools, and an integrated lock adds security when the bike is parked in public areas. The Spire 1.0 features a user-friendly display and intuitive computer system that offers 5 power assist modes and displays key ride metrics such as battery level, current speed, average speed, maximum speed, trip distance, and trip time. Additionally, a walk assist mode helps propel the bike when pushing it up steep hills.

For a smooth and controlled ride, the Spire 1.0 is equipped with dependable 1x8 speed Shimano Altus gearing and low-maintenance Tektro hydraulic disc brakes. The 70mm travel suspension fork with hydraulic lockout effectively handles bumps and uneven terrain, while the adjustable stem allows for a customized handlebar height for optimal comfort. Rider contact points include a Selle Royal Freeway saddle, ergonomically shaped grips, and alloy city pedals. The 700x45c Kenda tyres offer excellent grip and speed, enhanced with puncture protection to reduce the risk of flats (always happens when miles away from home) and reflective detailing for improved visibility in low light conditions.

Additional features of the Spire 1.0 include bright front and rear LED lights powered directly by the bike’s battery, a rear pannier rack for light cargo transport, mudguards to keep you clean, and a kickstand. This electric bike is designed to excel in both urban and off-road environments, making it a versatile choice for every journey regardless how adventurous.
