Features
With its full-spec components—Bosch Active Line motor, 400Wh rack battery, integrated lights, full mudguards and rear carrier—the Captus brings the Dutch bike ethos to UK roads.

Add in its reliable nine-speed gearing, internal battery rack, and everyday readiness, and you’ve got a British bike that behaves just like a Dutch daily rider.
