District+ 1 Lowstep

The District+ 1 Lowstep is a reliable, low-maintenance electric bike built for smooth, comfortable urban commuting. It features a user-friendly lowstep frame design for easy mounting and dismounting, an internal gear hub that requires minimal upkeep, and a trusted Bosch smart system that delivers responsive pedal-assist power. Hydraulic disc brakes provide consistent stopping power in any weather, while integrated accessories like fenders, lights, and a rear MIK rack ensure you're ready to ride right out of the box.

It's Right for You If...

You ride regularly around town and want a dependable e-bike with a sleek look, confident performance, and an ultra-accessible frame. You prefer the simplicity and durability of internal gearing and want a complete setup with lights, fenders, and a rack. Comfort, convenience, and reliability matter most to you.

The Tech You Get

District+ 1 Lowstep is built around a lightweight Alpha Smooth aluminum lowstep frame that hides cables for a clean look. It's powered by a Bosch Active Line smart system motor (250W, 40Nm), paired with a compact 400Wh Bosch PowerTube battery. Control is intuitive thanks to the Bosch LED Remote, with support for optional range extension via PowerMore 250Wh.

Shifting is handled by a 7-speed Shimano Nexus internal hub, which pairs perfectly with a chain guard-equipped 38T crankset for low-maintenance operation. Powerful Shimano MT200 hydraulic disc brakes deliver confident stopping performance. Wide 50mm tires add grip and comfort on mixed urban terrain, while ergonomic grips and a Selle Royal saddle enhance ride feel.

The bike comes fully equipped for commuting with a sturdy rear MIK-compatible rack, integrated lighting (Herrmans 100-lumen front and Spanninga rear), full-coverage fenders, a kickstand, and a frame lock.
