MAEVING

Maeving RM2

Coventry-based electric bike firm Maeving are a multiple MCN award winner for their electric bikes, and for good reason. Their funky-looking commuters are smooth, silent, and do away with charging anxiety by having removable batteries.

The £7,995 RM2 (Removable Battery, two-seat) is their latest offering. It joins Maeving’s 50cc-equivalent RM1 (£4,995) and 125cc-like RM1S (£7,495) in their lineup. It’s based heavily on the CBT-friendly RM1S and uses the same twin removable battery system (you can also plug into the mains in situ) and hub-mounted motor that will propel the RM2 to an indicated 70mph.

It moves the British firm’s electric bike story on with pillion provision and slightly more purposeful ergonomics to suit sportier riders. However, it’s still the battery bike that MCN has come to know and love, boasting impressive build quality and attention to detail.

CHARGING MADE EASY...The entire design of a Maeving revolves around the concept of removable batteries.
To charge your bike, all you need to do is remove the batteries and charge them from any standard socket, just like your smartphone. Prefer to leave them in? You can also plug directly into the bike and charge both batteries onboard.



That means no hunting for charging stations. Wherever there’s power, you can recharge.



It’s expensive for a 125cc-equivalent, but for a machine that will wow you every time you open the garage door, it’s worth it. It’s also light, easy to ride, quiet, smooth, swift, and plush. Thanks to some impressive Maeving know-how, it’s as much fun to ride out of town as it is in town.

It’s so well sorted, we’d take electric over petrol power for a short daily commute all day long. It’s cheap to run, especially with low-cost overnight charging, and its removable batteries take away the worry of limited charging access at home or finding a charging station. It’s a class act.

The RM2 is now available to buy online, and deliveries start in November 2025. You can try before you buy at their London showroom in Shoreditch, and Maeving offer mobile servicing from your home.
