Sinch Jaunt EZ 2.5
The Sinch Jaunt EZ 2.5 is a comfortable step-through e-bike made for commuting, cycle trails and longer recreational rides. Its Shimano EP600 motor provides plenty of assistance on hills, while the removable 630Wh battery gives you the capacity to ride well beyond the daily commute. Wide tyres, front suspension and a dropper post help make it easy to handle on sealed roads, gravel paths and uneven trails.
Strong Shimano Assistance
The Shimano EP600 motor delivers 85Nm of torque and pedal assistance up to 45km/h. It provides useful support on steeper climbs and when carrying extra gear without feeling abrupt or difficult to control.
Assistance levels are selected from the handlebar-mounted switch, while the Shimano SC-EN610 display keeps your speed, battery level and ride information easy to see.
A Battery Made for Longer Rides
The 630Wh Shimano battery provides useful capacity for commuting, weekend exploring and longer days on cycle trails. Actual range will depend on the assistance level, terrain, weather, rider weight and how much gear you are carrying.
The battery is integrated into the downtube but can be removed for charging or storage. It can also be charged while fitted to the bike.
Easy Step-Through Design
The open step-through frame makes the Jaunt EZ 2.5 easier to get on and off, particularly when stopping frequently or riding with luggage. Its adjustable stem, swept handlebar and comfort saddle create a relaxed position with a clear view of the road ahead.
The dropper post lowers the saddle using a handlebar control. This makes it easier to place your feet on the ground at stops and gives you more room to move on steeper or uneven sections.
Comfort Beyond the Tarmac
The SR Suntour XCM34 fork provides 100mm of travel to take the edge off potholes, gravel and rough cycle trails. Preload adjustment allows the fork to be better matched to the rider, while the hydraulic lockout firms it for smoother surfaces.
Maxxis Metropass AT 27.5 x 2.4-inch tyres add stability and grip without making the bike unnecessarily slow on sealed roads. Their reflective sidewalls improve visibility, while EXO protection helps guard against punctures and sidewall damage.
Durable Shimano CUES Gearing
The Shimano CUES 1 x 9 drivetrain provides a wide 11–46T gear range without the complication of a front derailleur. LinkGlide components are designed to cope with the higher loads produced by a mid-drive e-bike, making them a practical choice for regular riding.
This model uses familiar manual shifting. Riders wanting automatic electronic gear changes should consider the Jaunt EZ 3.5 Auto.
Ready for Everyday Use
The Jaunt EZ 2.5 comes with the practical equipment most riders would otherwise need to add later. Alloy mudguards help control road spray, while the MIK HD rear carrier can take compatible panniers, baskets and other accessories up to its rated 27kg capacity.
Integrated front and rear lights run from the main battery. The rear light also has a brake-light function to make your intentions clearer to following traffic.

Why Riders Love the Sinch Jaunt EZ 2.5
The Sinch Jaunt EZ 2.5 suits riders who want a comfortable and practical e-bike with enough power for proper hills and enough battery capacity for longer outings. It feels reassuring on varied surfaces and arrives with the equipment needed for everyday use.
Easy to Get On and Off
The low step-through frame and remote dropper post make mounting the bike or putting a foot down at an intersection much easier.
Plenty of Climbing Power
The EP600 motor’s 85Nm output makes a noticeable difference on steep roads, exposed cycle trails and rides carrying additional luggage.
Comfort on Mixed Surfaces
The suspension fork, wide tyres and relaxed riding position help smooth out broken seal, gravel paths and uneven trail surfaces.
Straightforward Shifting
Shimano CUES keeps gear selection simple and uses durable LinkGlide components designed to handle the demands of an e-bike.
Useful Carrying Capacity
The included MIK HD carrier makes it easy to add panniers or compatible accessories for shopping, commuting and touring.
Better Everyday Visibility
Integrated lighting, a brake-sensor rear light and reflective tyre details help improve visibility during early starts, evening rides and changing weather.
Practical Battery Management
The battery can be charged on or off the bike, which is useful when your bike storage area is separate from your charging point.

Our Thoughts on the Sinch Jaunt EZ 2.5
The Jaunt EZ 2.5 occupies a useful position in the Sinch range. It adds the stronger 85Nm EP600 motor, larger 630Wh battery, dropper post and more capable tyres without moving into the cost of an automatic-shifting model.
It is a particularly good match for riders who want to commute during the week and explore cycle trails at the weekend. The riding position is relaxed, the motor has enough strength for genuine hills, and the included carrier, mudguards and lights leave very little to add.
At 28.8kg with the battery fitted, it is a substantial bike. That weight contributes to its solid feel, but it is worth considering if you regularly need to carry your bike upstairs or lift it onto a roof rack. For riding rather than carrying, the Jaunt EZ 2.5 is a comfortable and well-equipped option.
