Scott E Sportster Solution Overview
You might not think that an electric bike could ever feel sporty but the Scott E Sportster Solution manages to blur the lines between a dedicated, go-anywhere hybrid and a convenient, functional electric alternative. Its electric motor is mounted in such a way as to give it perfect balance and so you can nip along the streets and power up hills without feeling like you are being weighed down by this cutting-edge technology.
To add to the sporty feel, Scott has equipped the E Sportster Solution with a number of features pulled from its non-electric bikes. You get an alloy frame, disc brakes from the Avid Elixir 3 range and a front fork from Suntour, which offers suspension providing 63mm of travel. In addition, the Schwalbe tyres provide mile after mile of consistent performance and grip and it comes with plenty of accessories to enjoy straight out of the box. A forward-facing Busch and Muller light kit will keep you safe on night time rides and Scott’s Urban Concept fenders will make sure that mud and dirt are not thrown up on to you every time you take it for a spin.
With its white frame and lime green detailing the Scott E Sportster Solution is not a bike for shy, retiring types. It looks great but will not necessarily appeal to everyone, so make sure you give it a good overview before you commit.
