Due to bottlenecks and delays in worldwide supply chains, the manufacturer may have replaced individual components from the original specification with equivalent or even higher quality components. Therefore, the bicycle delivered may deviate from the images in certain cases.
Unless stated otherwise all of our bikes and brake accessories are sold according to the EU standard brake setup (right hand rear and left hand front) which is in reverse to UK standard brake setup.
Please note: the majority of our electronic products that come with plugs are fitted with 2-pronged EU plugs as standard. The operating voltage remains the same, however you may require an additional, simple EU to UK adapter to use them
Ruff Cycles brings back the 70er electrified with a Bosch drive unit
Now it's getting wild! The LIL'BUDDY is their homage to the crazy bikes and minibikes of the 70er, which were very popular because of their extreme fun factor. Get close to this bike, it's your best friend, homie and bro - all in one!
It doesn't judge you, whether you take it into the countryside, into town or on a date.
Ruff Cycles teamed up with none other than Aaron Bethlenfalvy to develop this bike. Aaron has been designing bikes since 1994 and was formerly Global Vice President of Design for brands such as GT, Cannondale, Schwinn, Nirve, Felt and Mongoose.
Equipped with a Bosch Active Line drive, hydraulic Shimano disc brakes and a Shimano 7-Gang-Antrieb drivetrain, the Lil'Buddy is perfectly equipped for all your adventures. The 500 Wh battery from Bosch offers a range of 50 - 140 km and only needs 2.5 hours to be fully charged.
Like the Ruffians, the LIL'BUDDY is assembled in-house in Regensburg, Germany. The frames are welded by hand in the company's own frame factory in Bosnia-Herzegovina.
Bosch Active Line
The Active Line is the drive for all those who attach great importance to an elegant look. Thanks to its compact size, the drive unit can be optimally integrated into the bicycle frame. The reduced weight and low center of gravity ensure safe handling. You can experience pure riding pleasure with gentle assistance up to 25 km/h without any annoying external noise. And if you want to ride faster, you benefit from minimal pedal resistance above 25 km/h. The Active Line is also available with a back pedal function.
500 Wh battery
The Bosch PowerPack 500 offers reliable and long-lasting energy storage without memory effect and with minimal self-discharge. The rack battery variant is used for bikes with a low entry point. Regardless of where the battery is mounted, it can be easily removed and recharged at the nearest power socket. As a rack battery, the Bosch PowerPack 500 is only available in combination with Active Line and Active Line Plus.
Purion display
Design meets functionality: Purion is the minimalist on-board computer for anyone who wants a good view of the handlebars, whether in the city or in the countryside. While riding, you receive all important information conveniently at the touch of a button, keeping both hands on the handlebars. Five different riding modes offer you the right individual support in every situation.

Range
Can I get 50 miles from one battery charge or even 120? For those interested in buying an e-bike, this is a very important question. Manufacturers try to be as realistic as they can about possible ranges your e-bike may manage on one complete battery charge. In practice, however, the maximum range depends on many different factors. As well as the type of motor you have, factors include the energy content (400 or 500 Wh), handling and age of the battery. However, the rider's weight, sitting position, riding style (starting frequency, cadence) and selected support levels (Eco, Tour, Sport, Turbo) all greatly influence the range. Last but not least, the track profile (uphill or flat), the ground (road or terrain), wind (headwind, tailwind) and even tyre profile effect distances possible. This makes it extremely difficult to provide precise and reliable information.
