Centurion Easy R900 e-bike pairs Bosch motor with 800 Wh battery

What the Easy R900 offers

Centurion has added a new comfort-oriented electric bike to its range, the Easy R900. According to Notebookcheck, the model is built for effortless riding, with a low step-through frame that makes mounting simple. That design should suit riders with limited mobility, including people with hip problems who struggle to swing a leg over a conventional frame.

The bike is aimed at everyday use rather than sport. Notebookcheck notes that it is intended to make cycling comfortable and easy, and it arrives with a full set of practical equipment fitted as standard.

Motor, battery and drivetrain

Power comes from a Bosch Performance Line PX mid-drive motor, a type of motor mounted at the pedals for balanced weight distribution. It produces up to 90 Nm of torque and offers up to 600 percent pedal assistance, meaning the motor can multiply a rider's own effort several times over.

The battery is built into the frame and comes in two sizes: 800 Wh or 720 Wh. Notebookcheck reports that this capacity should allow a substantial range. Shifting is handled by a 10-speed Shimano Cues derailleur, and stopping power comes from hydraulic Magura MT A2 disc brakes.

Equipment and comfort features

The Easy R900 is specified for commuting and touring from the factory. Notebookcheck says it includes mudguards at both wheels, lighting, a luggage carrier and a stand, so buyers do not need to add accessories before daily use.

Security is also covered: an Abus Amparo 4750 X frame lock is pre-installed and can be extended with a plug-in chain. A dropper seatpost, which lets the saddle be lowered at the press of a lever, adds further convenience. One likely compromise is the absence of a suspension fork, which Notebookcheck expects to make rougher surfaces feel less smooth.

Weight, load capacity and price

All that equipment comes at a cost in mass. The bike weighs 28.3 kilograms, so it is far from light. The integrated battery is part of that figure.

Payload is generous, however. Centurion rates the maximum permissible system weight, which covers the bike, rider and luggage combined, at 180 kilograms. That leaves plenty of capacity for heavier riders or touring gear. Centurion lists the Easy R900 at a recommended price of €3,799.

Who should consider it

Centurion is a familiar name in Germany, though less known elsewhere. Notebookcheck points out that its e-bikes are officially sold in several other European countries and are easy to find through online shops.

For riders who want a ready-to-ride touring and commuting bike with strong motor support and a low frame, the Easy R900 looks like a complete package. The trade-offs are its weight and the lack of front suspension, so buyers planning rough trails may want to look elsewhere.
