Our verdict
Lankeleisi suits riders who want a full-spec electric mountain bike with a throttle, a large battery and long cover, bought direct. Entry at €1,890.99 and a top price of €3,120.99 put it above the €949 mid-point, and only electric mountain bikes are on offer.

Pros and cons
Pros
- Throttle support sits alongside a mid-drive Bafang motor of 500 W on the brand's reference mountain bike.
- A battery of 720 Wh and a claimed range of 120 to 140 km cover long off-road days.
- Cover runs 3 years on the frame and 3 years on the battery, with 30 days to change your mind.
- Hydraulic disc brakes (hydraulic disc) and a 160 kg payload limit suit loaded trail rides.
- Sells direct, so the €1,890.99 to €3,120.99 range is the full list, not a dealer mark-up.
Cons
- Only electric mountain bikes in emtb, so there is no commuter or step-through option to compare against Kalkhoff's city and step-through ranges.
- No belt drive, so the drivetrain needs the upkeep a belt would otherwise avoid.
- Throttle-equipped bikes like this one need checking against local class rules, and the assist class here is EU 25.
- A minimum weight of 26.5 kg makes it a heavy bike to lift or carry on stairs, and it is sold in GB and US only.
Who it suits
- Trail riders who want a throttle for steep sections without relying on the battery alone.
- Anyone planning to load the bike, since the payload limit is 160 kg.
- Buyers who value a 3 years battery warranty and 30 days returns over a lower entry price.
Who should look elsewhere
- Commuters wanting a step-through or city bike, where Kalkhoff covers city, hybrid, step-through and electric mountain bikes.
- Riders after a cargo, commuter or folding bike, which Tern builds.
- Anyone who needs belt drive, since this brand does not offer it.
Pricing
Lankeleisi sells direct, and the list runs €1,890.99 to €3,120.99. Entry sits above the €876.09 mid-point for e-bikes, and the top price clears the €3,506.97 upper quartile, so this is an upper-middle band brand rather than a budget one. Because buying is direct, the figure you see is the figure you pay, with no dealer layer adding to it. That keeps the spread between entry and top price visible to you rather than hidden in showroom margins.
Where it sits among rivals
On entry price, Lankeleisi ranks 123 of 149 brands, placing it in the dearer side of the market. On top price it ranks 97 of 145, so the ceiling of the range is more competitive than the floor. The gap between the two tells you the range is wide enough to stretch, from an entry near the €613.86 mark to a top price close to €3,857.76 in this category. Buyers shopping at the cheaper end of electric mountain bikes will find more affordable options elsewhere.
What it does well
The reference mountain bike pairs a throttle with a battery of 720 Wh and a claimed range of 120 to 140 km, which is what separates this brand from hub-drive rivals. Braking is hydraulic disc throughout (hydraulic disc), and there is no belt drive, so the chain takes the strain on wet descents. Carrying capacity is generous, with a payload limit of 160 kg, though the bike itself is heavy at a minimum 26.5 kg. Ownership cover is 3 years on the frame and 3 years on the battery, and buyers get 30 days to return a bike that does not suit. Taken together, the spec sheet leans towards trail days rather than trips to the office.

Frequently asked questions
Does it have a throttle?+
Yes, the reference mountain bike comes with a throttle, alongside a Bafang mid-drive motor rated at 500 W. The assist class is EU 25, so check local class rules before riding a throttle-equipped bike on roads or shared paths.
How far does the battery go on a charge?+
Claimed range is 120 to 140 km on the reference mountain bike, drawn from a battery of 720 Wh. That is a sizeable pack for this category, though real distance depends on terrain, load and assist level. Riders covering long off-road days get the most from it.
What is covered by the warranty?+
The frame is covered for 3 years and the battery for 3 years. Buyers also get 30 days to return a bike, which shortens the risk on a purchase at the €1,890.99 entry point. Cover is matched across frame and battery, so neither part is the weak link.
Can I carry loads on it?+
The stated payload limit is 160 kg, which suits riders who strap on kit for trail days. The bike itself is heavy at a minimum 26.5 kg, so lifting it into a vehicle or carrying it upstairs is the harder part. Loading is fine; carrying the bike is the test.
What brake type does it use?+
Hydraulic disc brakes throughout, listed under hydraulic disc. There is no belt drive on this bike, so the drivetrain is chain-driven and will need regular attention on wet or muddy trails. Braking is the stronger of the two areas here.
Where is Lankeleisi sold?+
Lankeleisi sells direct, with availability recorded in GB and US. Buying direct means the €1,890.99 to €3,120.99 list is what you pay, without a dealer mark-up, but servicing has to go through the brand rather than a local shop, so check that before committing.
What kinds of bike does Lankeleisi make?+
Electric mountain bikes only, per emtb. Buyers after a commuter, folding or cargo bike should look at Tern, which covers cargo, commuter and folding, or at Kalkhoff for city and step-through riding. The narrow range is the main limit on this brand.
