Whether you want to ride further or faster, or just want a bit of help up the hills, the Boardman ADV 8.9E Men’s Adventure Electric Bike is a great option. Designed to offer maximum versatility for UK riding adventures, the Boardman ADV 8.9E Men’s Adventure Electric Bike can turn its hand to almost anything, thanks to its perfect blend of road bike speed with a more relaxed position, and off-road focussed geometry. This fast and practical Electric Adventure bike uses the sophisticated, German engineered Fazua Evation drive system to offer smooth and powerful electric assistance as you pedal. With the smooth power of the Fazua motor driving you onwards, you can explore further and faster than ever before, confident that you can tackle any hidden hills.

Weighing in at just 4.6kg for the whole system, the Fazua Evation system keeps the Boardman ADV 8.9E Mens Adventure Electric Bike lightweight and practical to live with. The battery and motor can also be removed and replaced with a lightweight cover (sold separately), meaning you can ride your e-bike just like a normal bike with barely any weight penalty and no extra drivetrain resistance if you decide you don’t need any assistance. Pannier rack and mudguard ready, this bike is also a brilliant commuting option. Rest assured, this model also comes with a 2-year warranty on all electrical components.

The electric motor of the Boardman ADV 8.9e is controlled via the fully integrated Fazua Evation remote fX. The remote allows the rider to intuitively switch between the assistance levels with the sensitive touch interface. Battery level and system health can be quickly read off the five LEDs located on the side without any risk of distracting the rider. An intelligent light sensor also ensures the brightness of the LEDs adapts to external light levels.

Fazua offers you a connected journey…

The 250Wh integrated battery is removable, which makes for easy charging without needing a plug where you store your bike. Long rides are handled easily thanks to a range of up to 56 miles* on the ‘Breeze Mode’ setting. To support the sophisticated motor and battery system, the ADV comes with a smart control system (BMS) that protects the battery from overheating, short circuiting or overcharging.

Additional Information.

Boardman’s Fazua-powered e-bikes offer really good value for money, and our experience aboard the ADV8.9E has been very positive. You’re getting a lot of the performance of more expensive e-road bikes at a much lower price point. The Fazua system is good for mixed riding, and offers useful assistance and good range. It’s built into a bike that’s solid and enjoyable to ride.

Tester Big Dave writes: “With its 38mm Schwalbe G-One Speed tyres, the ADV8.9E is easily capable of taking on some rougher surfaces right out of the box. I’ve thrown it at some of the less technical off-road routes around here – farm tracks and fire roads, predominantly – and it’s coped absolutely fine. The frame is quite stiff but there’s enough give in the tyres to smooth out some fairly uneven surfaces, and more room in the frame for bigger rubber if you want to go a bit further from the beaten track.

“If you find yourself looking at a steep climb, either on the tarmac or off it, then you can rely on the Boardman’s sensible gearing and useful motor. The Fazua Evation system is, along with ebikemotion’s X35 hub motor, one of two systems that make up the majority of the e-road market right now. It’s a mid-motor with a 250Wh battery, a stated torque of 60Nm and peak power of 400W. In reality it doesn’t feel as powerful as other motors with similar numbers – the Bosch Performance Line motor is the closest – but in Rocket mode (the highest of the three available) there’s plenty of power to tackle even loose off-road climbs.

“If you’re on tarmac then the Boardman is easy to wind up to well above the 25km/h assistance limit on the flat. It’s not the lightest e-road bike out there at 16kg (the lightest Ribble SLe is under 12kg), so it’s not quite as much fun when you’re trying to keep your pace up on rolling terrain, but it’s still easy enough to roll round without troubling the battery too much. The motor decouples from the pedals quite effectively when you’re not using it, and the assistance fades in a pretty natural manner as you approach 25km/h.
