Welcome to the second annual Bebas — my Budget Ebike Awards 2025. In this video I’m doing what I love doing most: putting a bunch of cheap(er) electric bikes into proper categories and calling it how I see it. I’m not just looking at spec sheets either — I’m thinking about real-world use in the UK: what feels good on a chatty ride, what actually pulls on hills, what’s good value, and what’s going to annoy you after the first week. I break things down into loads of useful buckets like best value, best legal-style picks, step-thru options, cafe racer vibes, and the absolute “beast” category for the ones that punch above their price. And yes, I also name the worst budget ebike of 2025 — because some bikes look great online and then totally fall apart once you live with them. By the end, I reveal my overall best budget ebike of 2025, and if you want the deep dives on every model featured, I’ve got them all in the Best Ebikes of 2025 playlist.
