2026 Raleigh Motus Low-Step Electric Bike With Hub Gears In Nightblue Gloss

Discover the perfect blend of comfort, practicality, and electric assistance with the Raleigh Motus Low Step Hub. This thoughtfully designed electric leisure bike combines effortless step-through accessibility with reliable hub gearing, making it an ideal companion for daily commuting, recreational rides, and everything in between.

The Motus Low Step Hub features a sophisticated electric drive system that seamlessly integrates power assistance with your pedalling effort, transforming everyday journeys into enjoyable experiences. Whether you're navigating urban streets, tackling gentle hills, or exploring scenic cycle paths, this e-bike delivers the confidence and capability you need to ride further and more frequently.

Built around a robust aluminium frame with step-through geometry, the Motus prioritises accessibility and comfort without compromising on performance. The low step-over height makes mounting and dismounting effortless, particularly when wearing everyday clothing or carrying bags, while the frame's disc brake post mount design ensures reliable stopping power in all conditions.

The bike's Shimano Nexus 5-speed hub gear system represents the pinnacle of low-maintenance cycling technology. Sealed within the rear hub, the internal gearing mechanism operates smoothly and quietly, requiring minimal maintenance whilst providing well-spaced gear ratios suitable for varied terrain. The twist-grip Shimano SL-C70005 shifter allows for intuitive gear changes, even when stationary – a particularly useful feature for stop-start urban riding.

Confident braking comes courtesy of Shimano MT200 hydraulic disc brakes front and rear. These reliable stoppers deliver consistent performance in wet and dry conditions, with progressive feel and excellent modulation that inspires confidence on descents and provides precise control in traffic situations.

The Suntour Nex E25 suspension fork with 50mm of travel smooths out road imperfections and cycle path bumps, reducing fatigue on longer rides while maintaining the responsive handling characteristics that make cycling enjoyable. This complements the comfortable riding position created by the adjustable JD-ST243A-2 stem and 640mm-wide handlebars.

Rolling on dependable Schwalbe Road Cruiser tyres, the Motus delivers excellent puncture resistance and long-wearing durability. These versatile tyres provide confident grip on tarmac and well-maintained cycle paths whilst maintaining low rolling resistance for efficient progress.

The finishing touches reflect Raleigh's attention to rider comfort, from the supportive Selle Royal Wave saddle to the practical aluminium platform pedals. Every component has been selected to create a cohesive, reliable package that enhances your cycling experience whilst requiring minimal maintenance.

With its striking Nightblue Gloss finish, the Motus Low Step Hub makes a refined statement that's equally at home in professional environments and leisure settings. This is electric cycling refined – purposeful, elegant, and built to last.
