The Dawes Spire 1.0 Crossbar electric bike is a true all-rounder, designed for everything from daily commutes to leisurely weekend rides through parks and canal paths. Its crossbar frame integrates a powerful 360Wh battery, delivering over 40 miles (64km) of assisted pedalling to keep you going further. Powering the bike is a Bafang rear hub motor, a brand known for its reliability and performance, providing 32Nm of torque to help you tackle hills with ease and cruise smoothly on flat terrain. The Samsung battery cells ensure top-tier quality, safety, and performance, meeting stringent UK and EU regulations for peace of mind.

Riders can fine-tune their experience with the intuitive handlebar display, offering five power assist modes, plus real-time ride data like speed, trip distance, and battery level. A walk-assist function is also included, engaging the motor to help push the bike uphill when walking. Charging is effortless, with the battery removable for off-bike charging, taking just five hours for a full charge. A secure battery lock adds an extra layer of security when parked in public spaces.

Built for versatility and comfort, the Spire 1.0 features Shimano Altus 1x8-speed gearing for smooth shifting and Shimano MT200 hydraulic disc brakes for powerful stopping power in all conditions. The 70mm travel suspension fork absorbs bumps and vibrations, while puncture-protected Kenda 700x45c tyres offer excellent grip and reflectivity for added visibility. Additional features include integrated front and rear LED lights, a rear pannier rack, full mudguards, and an adjustable kickstand—all designed to enhance your riding experience.
