Dawes Scenic Low-Step Hybrid Bike

North Sports offers Small 15in (SKU 690715), recommended by Dawes for 5ft 0in–5ft 6in / 152–168cm, and Medium 17in (SKU 690717) for 5ft 6in–5ft 11in / 168–181cm. These are recommendations rather than guarantees. Check your inside leg, comfortable saddle height, reach and ability to use the controls. At approximately 168cm, you may fall between both sizes; ask us to help compare fit.

Availability and delivery timing must be confirmed with North Sports for your selected model and frame size before a date is promised. At the time of review our store's tracked stock is zero (0); this figure does not confirm current supplier availability. Any displayed delivery estimate is indicative until an order has been checked.

Tandem Group Cycles says its direct-delivery electric bikes are assembled and checked by its mechanics before being protected and re-boxed for courier delivery. They are described as “built and ready to ride”, but minor completion steps are still required on receipt, including aligning and securing the handlebar, fitting the remaining pedal if supplied separately, adjusting the saddle and checking all adjusted fasteners. Read the included instructions, charge the battery as recommended and complete a pre-ride safety check. If you are unsure, have a competent bicycle mechanic complete the checks. Supplier direct-delivery terms and costs are not themselves a promise of North Sports' checkout options. Ask us to confirm the service and timing for your postcode before ordering.
