The Ridgeback Errand is a compact urban utility e-bike designed as a practical, car-replacement solution for everyday mobility. It is suited to commuting, errands, shopping trips and short leisure rides, with a clear focus on manoeuvrability, load capacity and ease of use.
The one-size aluminium frame is engineered to suit a wide range of rider heights, approximately 153 to 194 cm, making the Errand suitable for shared household use.
The Errand uses 20” wheels with high-volume tyres, prioritising agility and control in dense urban environments. The compact overall dimensions improve:
low-speed handling
frequent stop-and-go riding
manoeuvrability in tight spaces
The reduced footprint also makes storage easier in homes, offices or shared spaces.
Independent reviews consistently describe the handling as stable, predictable and confidence-inspiring, particularly when carrying loads on the front rack.
The Errand is powered by a Promovec hub-drive system, featuring:
250 W rear hub motor
54 Nm maximum torque
375 Wh external battery
The system is controlled via a simple handlebar-mounted display. Assistance behaviour can be adjusted via the Promovec smartphone app, allowing changes to power delivery characteristics.
The battery also supplies power to the integrated lighting system.
Cargo functionality is a core element of the Errand’s design:
frame-mounted front alloy rack, suitable for bags, crates and boxes
rear rack mounts, allowing further expansion of carrying capacity
This configuration supports daily utility use such as shopping, transporting work items or personal gear.
The Errand is supplied fully equipped for urban riding, including:
alloy mudguards
AXA front and rear lights
AXA frame lock
hydraulic disc brakes
8-speed mechanical drivetrain
Independent testing highlights the bike’s practical focus, prioritising usability and durability over sport-oriented performance.
Priced at €1,999, the Ridgeback Errand sits in a highly competitive position within the compact urban e-cargo category.
With comparable equipment — 54 Nm motor, Promovec battery system, hydraulic disc brakes, integrated front rack and full everyday accessories — many competing models are priced significantly higher or require optional add-ons to reach a similar level of functionality.
The result is a ready-to-ride utility e-bike offering a strong balance of price, specification and real-world usability.
