Hygge Herlev Auto Step-Through Electric Bike | 250W UK EAPC Compliant | Automatic 3-Speed | 48V

Discover the Hygge Herlev Auto Step-Through Electric Bike, featuring an intelligent automatic 3-speed drivetrain, a 250W Ananda hub motor and a 48V 14Ah Samsung-cell battery. Designed for comfortable recreational cycling on suitable surfaces, the Herlev Auto combines a step-through aluminium frame, torque-sensing pedal assistance, and a low-maintenance Gates carbon belt drive.

The Ananda 250W hub motor provides 48Nm of manufacturer-listed torque, while the integrated automatic 3-speed system selects gears according to speed and riding conditions. This removes the need for manual gear selection and helps maintain a smooth pedalling experience. An Ananda torque sensor adjusts assistance in response to pedalling effort, with five selectable pedal-assist levels and assistance limited to 25km/h (15.5mph).

The removable 48V 14Ah Samsung-cell battery provides approximately 672Wh of nominal energy capacity. Hygge lists a maximum range of up to 80km (approximately 50 miles) per charge. Actual range varies according to rider weight, terrain, weather, assistance level, and battery condition. The manufacturer specifies a 48V 3A charger.

For comfort, the Herlev Auto features a front mechanical suspension fork and Zoom suspension seatpost. The aluminium step-through frame offers a low 44cm step-over height, while adjustable handlebars and saddle height help riders achieve a suitable fit.

Tektro HDM280 hydraulic disc brakes provide controlled braking, while the 20-inch wheels are fitted with Kenda 20 x 2.4-inch puncture-resistant tyres as standard. An optional Schwalbe 20 x 2.35-inch tyre configuration is also available, depending on the selected variant.

Additional equipment includes a Selle Royal Freeway Comfort saddle, ergonomic grips, front and rear LED lights, full-length mudguards, an aluminium bell and an adjustable MIK rear carrier system. An IPS HD colour display with Bluetooth connectivity provides access to riding information and compatible phone-app features.
