Kellys THEOS F60 SH Review

Shimano has become the biggest component manufacturer for bicycles thanks to its gear, pedal and brake components. It's clear that the Japanese want to shape the E-Bike trend from this dominant market position. The well-rounded motor control and the harmonious power output characterise the character of the Shimano motor. Whoever likes to go on long rides will be pleased with the very good range.

Carbon is considered a premium material in the bike industry. In the price range about 7500€, aluminium is usually the frame material used. With the carbon frame, Kellys can clearly differentiate itself from many competitors. In comparison, it's noticeable that the direct competition mounts better chassises, thus offering significantly more control. The mid-range brakes from Shimano do their job but could be a bit firmer. The power of the four pistons setup is only average. The average shifting components and accessories leave some tuning potential open. For most e-bikers, this should be an acceptable point. The trend is going towards increasingly longer main frames. With a very high Reach Value, Kellys meets this trend. However, especially inexperienced riders must be aware that it takes a brave body effort to maneuver the THEOS F60 SH.
