HAMPTON HM2 250W Hybrid Electric Bike
The HAMPTON HM2 is a practical hybrid electric bike supplied in its UK EAPC configuration with a 250W rear-hub motor and pedal assistance limited to 15.5mph (25km/h). A removable 36V 15Ah battery provides 540Wh of capacity for everyday assisted riding.
CST 27.5 × 2.125-inch tyres, front suspension, 160mm mechanical disc brakes and Shimano 7-speed gearing give the HM2 a straightforward specification for mixed urban and leisure use. Full-length mudguards and a rear rack add day-to-day practicality.
250W pedal assistance with a UK road setting
The rear-hub motor provides support while you pedal, with assistance limited to 15.5mph (25km/h) in the supplied EAPC setting. Any higher-speed setting is strictly for private-land use and changes the bike's legal status, as explained below.
Removable 540Wh battery
The 36V 15Ah battery uses DMEGC cells and removes for charging or secure storage. The maximum assisted-range estimate is up to 100km, while a typical recharge takes approximately 7–8 hours with the 42V 2A charger.
Hybrid comfort and practical equipment
A front suspension fork helps absorb uneven surfaces, while CST tyres and front-and-rear mechanical disc brakes support stable control. Shimano 7-speed rear gearing, an LED headlight, mudguards and a rear rack complete the everyday setup.

I am incredibly pleased with my purchase of the Hampton HM2 electric bike. Its exceptional craftsmanship provides a superior riding experience. Although I initially found the seat less comfortable than I desired, it reminded me of the firmness I was accustomed to with my previous bike, and I quickly adjusted to it.
The bike features high-quality components that ensure a smooth, hassle-free ride without frequent adjustments. The motor is especially impressive, providing enough power to easily handle steep hills and long distances, making every ride a joyous experience that consistently leaves me smiling.
In terms of value, the Hampton HM2 is outstanding. After a thorough search for an e-bike that would meet my requirements, the HM2 stood out for its quality, performance, and features, all of which justify its price.
The bike has performed flawlessly, even after extensive and intensive use.
I strongly recommend the Hampton HM2 to anyone searching for an e-bike with many features without breaking the bank. It's an investment that has surpassed my expectations, delivering great enjoyment and comfort on every ride.
I also had a positive experience interacting with the company's team. Sonny was informative about the delivery timeline and responsive to all my queries. My sincere thanks to the entire team for their excellent work.

I love this bike. Really sturdy. Plug and play. 😃
Very happy!
Good value bike with excellent features.. disk brakes, motor and lots of gears. Slightly too small for my height 6'3" but fixed with a longer seat post.
I purchased Hampton HM2 bike in October 2024. I like the build of this bike. Kind of effortless and comfortable riding experience. Sonay was very kind enough to help me and guide me through out. I recommend this bike for any one looking for a adventurous ride.
Generally like the bike very much. Well built, seems fairly good quality, nice gears.
However the advert said he battery could give 125 Km under favourable conditions ( I am only a 64 Kg rider) and that is the main reason I bought it. In practice I only get about 62 Km.
Reading the instruction manuel supplied with the bike it states the range in pedal assist mode at 60 Km which is what I'm getting. The advertised range is not realistic. I consider I have been mislead on the achievable range. Looks like I will now have to spend about another £200 on an additional battery for my longer rides.
I bought this in November 2023 , only just started to use it . I like this bike very much compared to my first e-bike. But so far very impressed with functionality of the bike. I would recommend to anyone wishing to purchase a new e-bike.
Thank you for your positive review of the HAMPTON HM2 Hybrid Electric Bike! We are so glad to hear that you are enjoying your new bike and finding it to be an improvement from your previous e-bike. We truly appreciate your recommendation to others interested in purchasing a new e-bike. Happy riding!
