"Specialized Vado SL. Same as you, I do road and gravel, this is my go to work bike with small assist."

"The Specialized SL bikes are exactly whey you’re describing. I put thousands of miles a year on my hybrid type Vado 5.0 SL and a Creo SL Expert EVO gravel bike."

"I recently bought a middrive motor + battery (tsdz8) and it fits my needs of a 35km (each way) commute. Bafang BBS02 is another similar option."

"You can get Bafang conversion on a MTB for around £1500-2k and it will rival bikes triple its price."

"Himiway zebra and A7 pro. Either get a bike with front an rear suspension or add a suspension seatpost if it’s a hard tail."

"Anything Danish or Dutch."

"I have a large-frame Gazelle (65cm frame). It’s meant for people between 1.90 and 2.05 m."
