Got questions? We've got you

Good question. The Urban is our mid-motor eBike with an automatic 3-speed hub. It’s the perfect commuter electric bike, agile in every urban environment, ideal for quick rides to and from work (and everywhere in between).

The GTS gives some serious oomph on those longer adventures. The M420 Mid-drive motor by Bafang®, together with the Enviolo® CT integrated hub provides a heavy power boost and full control when riding.

Ah, you must be a serious electric cycling tech-head. OK here goes.

The Urban has a powerful Bafang M200 mid-motor to spice up your commute, make hills feel flat and effortlessly get you up to speed. With 3 levels of power-assist, keeps you in full control of the 250w output with the Bafang button integrated in the top tube. The Bafang automatic 3-speed hub is the best fitting lightweight gearing hub that syncs perfectly with the mid-motor.

The powerful and silent Bafang M420 Mid-Drive Motor on the GTS does everything the Jordaan Urban can and way more. The Enviolo stepless gearing and Gates carbon belt drive perfectly pairs with the mid-drive Motor, ensuring the smoothest ride, every time.

Yes, we are very proud to let you know our Gen3 eBikes meet the EN 15194 standard and have been thoroughly tested and certified by the TüV (an independent testing facility that tests, inspects, and certifies products).

Since we believe in offering our riders a joyful and worry-free eBike experience, our eBikes are designed with safety as a priority every step of the way. They are built around high-quality, complete eBike systems that have been thoroughly tested for electrical and fire protection.

Great, but what is the EN 15194 Certification exactly?

EN 15194 is a standard that specifies requirements and test methods for the safety, performance, and design of e-bikes before they are deemed safe for riders and the public. It’s mainly developed for regulating e-bikes in European Union countries and covers common hazards and hazardous events related to e-bikes. In most of Europe, manufacturers are not obligated to comply with EN 15194—the UK and France being exceptions, where compliance with the standard is mandatory.

When an e-bike is indicated as meeting the EN 15194 standard, it also meets the standards for mechanical parts outlined in ISO 4210. Furthermore, it has passed comprehensive safety assessments that test and evaluate significant areas of the bike, including its braking performance, electrical system safety, stability, and durability, making it less at risk of accidents and malfunctions and promoting rider and road user safety.

EN 15194 also ensures that the e-bike meets specific performance criteria to deliver a consistent and reliable riding experience by subjecting the e-bike to testing that evaluates parameters such as power assistance levels, speed limitation, and range estimation.

Yes, they are! All our batteries undergo a rigorous certification process to ensure they are safe. Our batteries have obtained the CE testing and certification process and have the UN38.3 (certification for lithium batteries) and NEN-EN15194 certification for the European eBike directive. But that’s not all: in addition, we also have the CE-EMC certification and IEC 62133. 

How do you test the batteries

Together with our European assembly partner, we test our batteries during and at the end of the assembly process. These tests ensure that our batteries are completely waterproof, have total capacity, and have perfect working connections before they reach our customers. 

Do your batteries have internal management systems (BMS)?

Our batteries come with a Battery Management System (or in short, BMS) that protects them against everything from short circuits and too high or low temperatures. 

The BMS is designed to prevent damage to the battery by monitoring and regulating charging and discharging, as well as the battery's overall health. This ensures that our batteries are safe and reliable for our customers. Lastly, the BMS allows us to make quick and easy diagnoses of the battery and will enable us to repair and maximize the product life cycle.

First up, yes every LEKKER eBike has a removable battery, so you don’t have to take the whole eBike inside for charging. Plus, upgrading or replacing’s easy. Which brings us to question 2. Here are the battery specs for the Amsterdam and Jordaan range.

Amsterdam range
Standard: 36v 14Ah, 504 Wh Capacity Range: 65km-100km
Upgrade: 36v 17.5Ah, 630 Wh Capacity Range: 65km-100km

Jordaan range
Standard: 36v 14Ah, up to 504Wh Capacity Range: 65km-100km

The premium Gates® CDX Belt Drive provides a silent and seamless riding experience. It works in perfect harmony with the mid-drive plus the advanced urethane technology means the belt’s weather-resistant, flexible and durable. Best of all, that means low noise and zero maintenance up to 30,000 kilometers.

The Urban is a smooth and speedy electric bike with a 65Nm mid-drive motor. You can choose from 3 levels of power assistance, together with the perfect gear ratio the Urban adapts the cadence to your speed! Wheeee!

With a 80Nm mid-drive motor the ultra powerful GTS’ gear ratio is optimal for cruising uphill and on flat areas. Together with the 5 levels of power assistance and the manual Enviolo shifter you can determine the right cadence for you.

Both the Urban and GTS have a cool torque sensor that constantly measures how hard you pedal and calculates how much extra oomph to give you. Pedal more? More help. Less? You guessed it – less. Or in normal language, you get to turbo through traffic.

Our bikes are made for babies (as passengers – babies aren’t great at riding bikes). They’re sturdy, light and comfortable – perfect for taking juniors on an adventure.

The Jordaan range is perfect for adding a child seat to the already included front and rear rack while the Amsterdam range can have a child seat on the rear as long as the commuter rear carrier is purchased with the bike. On our accessory page you can find compatible child seats by Bobike for both ranges.

Go for it. You can take both the Jordaan range and the Amsterdam range eBikes on the road, off the road or on gravel. All-purpose for everyday cycling (but the experience is far from same-old, same-old). But it’s probably best to stay off the mountains and hardcore mudtracks with the Jordaan eBikes though.

The Amsterdam range eBikes come with Schwalbe® G-One Allround 57mm wide puncture resistant tyres, allowing easy rides on gravel and long dirt tours. Together with the powerful mid-drive motor by Bafang®, they can easily take you on comfortable off road explorations.

The GTS's Seekrun® TFT displays have an IPX7 rating, meaning they are fully waterproof and protected against dust, oil and other non-corrosive material.

The Urban's Bafang® LED button has an IPX5 rating meaning it's water-resistant as well as protected against dust, oil and other non-corrosive material.

We’re not going to answer that because it would be a Very Bad Thing To Do. We want you and your fellow road users to stay safe. And we’re law-abiding people. So you need to know that riding tuned eBikes with a speed limit above 25km/h is against the law. It will void the warranty on your Dutch eBike and your insurance coverage too. Plus, it can have serious legal consequences. Like we said, a Very Bad Thing To Do.
