When seconds count, it can save lives.
We’ve had recent examples where drivers completely ignore the Police vehicle behind them. Other drivers slow right down without safely pulling over, and delay Police from responding to emergency situations.
Please help us by allowing our team to get to those in need, so we can save lives.
Top tips when an emergency services vehicle approaches with lights and sirens:
🚑 You are required by law to pull to the side of the road and stop as soon as it is safe to do so.
🚔 If the lights and siren of the Police vehicle continue past you, you can resume your journey.
🚒 Make sure you check the road is clear before moving on.

Bionic’s Cruiser is one of the lightest feeling e-bikes available, due to its very low centre of gravity and battery location. It is designed with a low step-through height, making it easy to get on and off, while the handlebar configuration allows a very comfortable upright riding position (which can be easily adjusted via a quick-release system).
The Cruiser is equipped with components to make it suitable for both city and trail use.
The Cruiser has the feel of a mid drive system due to its SensorDrive sensing system, which measures how much torque you are applying to the pedals and magnifies this torque by an amount that you control.
If you need a break, or have forgotten to change down your gears before stopping, a thumb throttle is standard on this model and allows direct speed control when you want it. It has front suspension which can be locked for better efficiency on smooth roads or engaged for rougher roads and trail use. The gearing is provided by a SRAM 9 speed system and has been configured to allow for a wide range of terrain. Stopping power is awesome through Shimano hydraulic disc brakes with 180mm discs. The Cruiser is also supplied with fully integrated front and rear LED lighting (which means you don’t ever have to replace batteries), keeping you safe when on the road at night.
DRIVE UNIT - Bafang 300W (controlled) rear hub motor
SENSOR - SensorDrive system
THROTTLE - Thumb throttle supplied as standard
CONTROL - LCD display with 5 levels of assist
BATTERY - 500Wh LG cells(optional upgrade to 672Wh or 840Wh*)
