27.5" urban electric bike with 65 km range – DYU C5

The C5 is a big-wheel city bike that rolls easily on tarmac and cycle lanes. Its 480 Wh battery gives about 35–50 km real-world, enough for a week of short journeys. It's a simple, comfortable bike for everyday riding.

Guide price: €799 (VAT included). See the full data in the specifications on this page.

Estimated real-world range

The manufacturer claims up to 65 km, measured with minimum assistance, flat ground and a light rider. In normal use (medium assistance, a 75–85 kg adult, some hills and stops) we estimate between 34 and 48 km per charge, based on 10–14 Wh/km with its 480 Wh battery. With maximum assistance, cold weather or steep climbs, expect the lower end of the range.

Example: for a 10 km commute each way, you would need to charge it roughly every 1–2 working days.

Who is the DYU C5 for?

• Tall riders and longer trips: the big wheels roll better and hold speed with less effort.

Do you need a licence or number plate?

No. With 250 W rated power and assistance up to 25 km/h, it is treated as a bicycle in the EU: no licence, no registration and it can use cycle lanes. In Spain helmets are compulsory on interurban roads and for under-16s everywhere.
