Best electric gravel bikes in 2022: 9 gravel ebikes rated and reviewed



The best electric gravel bikes combine two of cycling’s hottest trends. The mix of gravel riding with electric bikes gives you the off-road capability of the former and the extra power of the latter to up your gravel enjoyment while getting the benefits of riding an electric bike.To get more news about [url=https://www.magicyclebike.com//news/info/do-you-need-suspension-on-an-ebike... with suspension[/url], you can visit magicyclebike.com official website.

Like the best electric mountain bikes, electric gravel bikes make a lot of sense for climbing off-road, particularly if your gravel riding regularly takes you onto steep, sketchy surfaces.

Having a motor to help on the climbs makes them a lot easier to tackle, while, on the way back down, there’s little downside to the extra weight of the motor and battery.As with any electric bike, electric bike laws dictate an ebike motor’s assistance will be limited to speeds below 15mph / 25kph in the UK, EU and Australia, and 20mph in the US.
For more advice on what to look for in an electric gravel bike, including the different types of motors available, our full buyer’s guide is at the bottom of this article.

But if you’d rather stick to paved surfaces, check out our guide to the best electric road bikes.

Otherwise, here are the best electric gravel bikes, as reviewed by BikeRadar’s expert testers.

You can also head to our pick of the best gravel bikes for our top-rated, non-assisted options, and our guide to the best women’s road and gravel bikes. If you’re on a budget, we’ve got a round-up of the best cheap gravel bikes under £1,500.An aluminium frame powered by the Mahle ebikemotion rear-hub motor system forms the basis for the GT Grade Amp.

The geometry is carried over from the non-powered GT Grade Carbon, so the Grade Amp feels responsive despite its 14.8kg weight, even when ridden with the motor off.

We really like the shape of the Grade’s slightly flared bars, but they’re stiff, which in combination with a firm fork and the alloy frame, makes for a sapping ride over bumpy terrain.Like the GT Grade Power Amp, the 3T Exploro RaceMax Boost features the Mahle ebikemotion rear-hub motor.

3T has even found room to fit the battery into the Exploro’s frame without any mods to the pedal-powered bike, which means not only does it look smart, but the geometry is carried over, too.

The motor, in combination with the generously low gears (thanks to the 40t chainring and 11-42t cassette) and 12.5kg weight, makes even 20 per cent off-road gradients rideable.The RaceMax Boost is kitted out with wide, aero 3T carbon wheels, with differential front and rear depths, and 35mm Pirelli Cinturato Gravel M tyres that roll fast on-road, but hang on well off-road, too.

The Cairn BRAVe is an electric gravel bike that borders on electric mountain bike territory, thanks to its powerful Shimano Steps E7000 mid-mounted motor and massive 2.35in tyres.

Whereas Cairn’s E-Adventure uses the subtler Fazua motor, the Shimano motor here jacks things up, with up to 70Nm of torque.

It’s a genre-defying bike – and while the weight and chunky tyres may hold you back on the road, if you want a drop-bar bike for seriously rugged off-road riding, the Cairn BRAVe fits the mould.This latest iteration of the Cairn E-Adventure, updated from the original 2018 bike, gets shortened seatstays and a sloping top tube to make it easier to manoeuvre on tight or technical trails.

The E-Adventure is powered by a Fazua motor, with a top-tube controller instead of a bar-mounted unit.

With Cairn coming from the same stable as Hunt wheels, there’s naturally a good set of hoops for the job. We’d have preferred grippier tyres, though, because the Vittoria Terreno Dry tyres are inadequate when things aren’t, well, dry.
