Boardman HYB 8.9E Mens Microshift Hybrid Electric Bike

Boardman HYB 8.9E is a lightweight flat-bar hybrid e-bike built for commuting and leisure riding. The 6061 aluminium frame uses upright geometry for visibility in traffic, matched with a full-carbon fork and Schwalbe Citizen K-Guard 700x35c tyres for comfort and puncture resistance. Power comes from the German-engineered Fazua Evation mid-drive system — 250W, 60Nm and a removable 250Wh battery pack that recharges in around three hours. Three assistance modes plus a handlebar remote deliver up to 60 miles in Breeze mode under ideal conditions, with an average of 25-30 miles in typical use. The motor and battery can be removed entirely for unassisted riding. A Microshift 1x10 drivetrain covers gearing, and Tektro hydraulic disc brakes with 160mm rotors provide reliable stopping. At £1,999 clearance pricing against an RRP of £2,399, this saves £400 on a genuinely capable commuter e-bike. The product page currently lists only the 49cm (Medium) frame size as available.
