Our verdict on each
AsVIVA
AsVIVA sells city, commuter, folding and step-through e-bikes direct from Germany, priced from €898 for riders who want a European commuter at a fair entry point. Finance and delivery across several European markets sit behind the sale, while a hub motor keeps the bikes modest on steep hills.
myebikes
myebikes suits German riders who want a belt drive commuter or city e-bike with a removable battery, bought direct rather than through a dealer. Entry sits at €914.11 for a claimed range of 160 km, and the frame carries a 2 years warranty.

Pros and cons
AsVIVA
Pros
- The range runs €898 to €1,778, so a buyer can set a budget before choosing a named model.
- AsVIVA sells direct (direct), which keeps the price with the maker rather than with a dealer.
- Batteries reach 620 watt hours for a claimed 120 kilometres, and the battery comes out for charging.
Cons
- A hub motor (hub) at 250 watts of nominal power leaves steep gradients and heavy loads to the rider's legs.
- Booked servicing goes to a partner network (partner), so repairs sit outside the maker's own workshop.
- Delivery stops at DE, BE and FR, and no route is listed for buyers elsewhere in Europe or beyond it.
myebikes
Pros
- Mid-drive units from bosch and shimano rated at 250 W, set against a hub motor majority of 76%
- Support runs on email, phone and help centre, so email, phone and a help centre cover most questions
- A 14 days money back window sits alongside a 2 years frame warranty
Cons
- The range covers commuter, city and hybrid, and step-through, folding and cargo formats are not among them, so Tern fits those shapes better
- Nominal power of 250 W sits at the lower edge against a site median of 500 W
- Live chat and community forums are not among email, phone and help centre, which cover email, phone and a help centre
Who each suits
AsVIVA
Who it suits
- City and step-through riders who want a direct purchase and a claimed 120 kilometres of range.
- Buyers in Germany, BE and FR who would rather use finance than pay the €898 entry figure in a single payment.
- Riders without a garage, since the range lists a removable battery.
Who should look elsewhere
- Anyone after a cargo bike: Tern builds cargo, commuter and folding, and AsVIVA's city, commuter and folding carries no cargo model.
- Trail and hybrid riders: Kalkhoff covers city, hybrid and step through, adding an e-mtb and a hybrid to AsVIVA's list.
- Buyers wanting fat tyres: HK BEIRUI TRADE CO. lists commuter, folding and fat tire, reaching shapes outside AsVIVA's range.
myebikes
Who it suits
- Riders in DE who want a belt drive commuter bought direct, with no dealer visit
- People who need to carry the battery indoors, since it is removable
- Commuters on tarmac who are happy with 250 W rather than trail power
Who should look elsewhere
- Riders based outside DE, since sales and support sit in a single market
- Cargo and folding buyers, who should look at Tern, whose cargo, commuter and folding cover those formats
- Step-through shoppers, who get more choice at Kalkhoff under city, hybrid and step through

Questions about each
AsVIVA
How much does an AsVIVA e-bike cost?+
Entry is €898 and the top of the range is €1,778, and both are outright purchase prices for the bikes themselves. The reference models across that span are two city e-bikes, an urban city bike and a folding bike, so a buyer can match a budget to a named model rather than a bare range.
Is there a subscription or renewal to pay on an AsVIVA bike?+
No recurring charge applies: the €898 to €1,778 figures are purchase prices, so there is nothing to renew once the bike is paid for. Buyers who prefer spreading the entry figure can use finance, which turns the purchase into instalments instead of a single payment.
myebikes
What does a myebikes e-bike cost at the entry point?+
Entry is €914.11 and the top of the range is €2,440.23. The REX Commuter S sits at the lower end, while the Rabeneick Comfort and REX Carbon sit at the upper end. Buying direct means the published figure is the figure paid, with no dealer margin added on top.
How powerful is the motor and where does it sit?+
The motor sits in the mid position, uses units from bosch and shimano and is rated at 250 W nominal. That sits at the modest end against a site median of 500 W, so the drive suits flat to rolling commutes rather than steep off-road work or loaded climbs.
