If you're a bigger person like me, look at the Kalkhoff range. I have an older model that I've had for 7-8 years. Gets ~90km on the lowest assist. They are very good bikes. On the expensive side though. Definitely look for a mid-drive one, they are a lot smoother to ride, and the extra weight is centralised so it feels like a regular bike.
