Cheap E-Bikes in Ireland 2025: Are Supermarket Deals Worth It? (Compared to Crussis)
Budget e-bikes from Lidl, Evercross, and Varun are trending across Ireland. Before you buy a bargain model, see how these offers compare with Crussis e-bikes at Pedro Pedals. This guide explains where real value comes from, and how to choose a bike that lasts.
If you are researching your first e-bike, it helps to look beyond the price tag. A strong motor, a reliable battery, and local support are the three factors that determine whether your bike is a joy to ride or a constant headache. For a broader view of what is in stock right now, start with our full Electric Bikes collection.
Supermarket e-bikes versus Crussis
Cheap e-bikes are attractive because they are easy to buy and look good on paper. Many list a 250 W hub motor and a claimed range of 30 to 40 km. They can work for short spins on flat ground, although most riders in Dublin and surrounding counties need stronger torque and a larger battery for daily use. When you plan regular commuting, consider comfort and safety too. A modern, well fitting helmet is a simple upgrade that makes every ride better.
| Feature | Supermarket E-Bike | Crussis E-Bike |

| Battery Range | 30 to 40 km typical | Up to 200 km with 720 to 900 Wh |
