Hi there, recently down here we've had the beryl bikes introduced, I've been using them on and off for about 3 weeks testing them out, it has been my first e-bike experience and I was very impressed by them, I ended up buying a Radrunner assuming that it would be very similar in power but it's hill climbing capabilities pale in comparison the to the Beryl e-bike, I can't find the specs of the Beyl bikes but I assume they have a 250w motor although I'm now thinking maybe it has a restricted 500w? Now I'm not sure whether to sell the Radrunner on and try find a bike with more torque for hills, or maybe upgrade the Radrunner with the Eggrider or probably the 35amp controller?

Does anyone have a recommendation for a good hill climber e-bike in the UK?
 
£809 with a referral for the Roadrunner 1, which to be fair is pretty cheap, riding around some more today I think it might do me for a while, Bosch seems to be the recommended motor to go for, a few bike shops I rang today said they are very good, very hard to find what the Nm torque of the 250w Radrunner is, one review of the EU version which is also 250w said it was 80Nm, not sure if the UK version are the same.

One chap from a shop said to me today if you want to go up any hill grab a Hiko Bike Rangler.
