Prophete

Pros and cons
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
Prophete
Pros
- The service network is own and a spare parts shop is available, so wear parts and repairs come from the company that built the bike.
- The range spans city, commuter and hybrid, so a city bike, a step-through, a mountain bike and a cargo hauler all come from the same maker.
- Cargo and longtail models are rated for a payload of 200 kg, which covers a weekly shop, a laptop or a small child.
Cons
- The Hansa by Prophete costs €1,149.95 at entry, above the site median of €876.09, so Prophete is not the cheapest route into an e-bike.
- The lightest bike listed still weighs 17.6 kg, which rules it out for anyone carrying a bike up stairs or onto a train.
- Support runs on email, phone and help centre and stops there, with no live chat listed for quick answers.
Who each suits
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
Prophete
Who it suits
- Riders in the countries Prophete ships to, who would rather have the brand's own workshop and parts shop than a third-party dealer network.
- Households with mixed transport needs, from a step-through city bike for one rider to a cargo hauler for the school run.
- Buyers who keep a bike for years and value replaceable parts over a wide dealer network.
Who should look elsewhere
- Tern, whose bike types are cargo, commuter and folding, is the closer fit if your shortlist is built around cargo, commuter and folding bikes.
- Kalkhoff, listed as city, hybrid and step through, suits riders who want city, hybrid and mountain shapes rather than a range this wide.
- HK Beirui Trade Co., listed as commuter, folding and fat tire, is the pick for fat-tire riding, while Prophete's types are city, commuter and hybrid.

Questions about each
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.
Prophete
How much does a Prophete e-bike cost at entry?+
The cheapest bike listed, the Hansa by Prophete, costs €1,149.95, and the priciest listed bike, a cargo model, runs to €3,199.95. That is the whole span of the range rather than a subscription, so the figure you read is the figure you pay. Finance is offered if you would rather spread the entry cost over time.
What range do I get on a charge?+
One listed model is quoted at a claimed range of 220 km, and the biggest battery in the bike range is 799.9 Wh. Read that range figure as a claim made under set conditions rather than a promise, since weather, load and gradient all move it. A larger battery also means more weight to lift, so size the pack to your real route.
