Range Summary
We attended the Raleigh 2018 pre-launch event and are really excited about the new Motus range. The subtle colours and wide options available will make them very popular.
The complete Raleigh range features the new 2018 Bosch eBike Active Line system. The entry-level Motus is offered with a 300Wh battery, where-as the Motus Tour and Grand Tour will be both offered with a 400Wh Bosch battery.
