Key Features
Torque Sensor
Most Vamos Bikes are equipped with advanced torque sensors that measure how hard you're pedaling and adjust the assistance accordingly. This provides a smoother, more natural ride while helping to preserve battery life, making every journey more efficient and enjoyable
Powerful 500W Vamos Rear Motor
Located within the rear wheel, this compact, light, and discreet motor delivers high power and torque for a bulkier cruiser. Pedal to activate the intelligent 1:1 pedal assist or use the half-grip throttle for a motorbike-like experience.
Half Grip Throttle
If pedalling is not your thing, then use the half grip throttle to control your speed when using the motor. Requiring just a half twist around the handlebar to reach full output, this throttle is super user-friendly regardless of your riding experience.
Front & Rear Titans Hydraulic Disc Brakes
Brakes are crucial for safety, especially with a high-powered motor. El Hefe features Titans hydraulic disc brakes on both front and rear, ensuring you can stop safely and suddenly when needed.
Fat Chaoyang Tires
26′ (tall) x 4′ (wide) fat Chaoyang tyres will catch the eyes of people you cruise by whilst allowing you to explore different terrains with their superior traction profile. Cruise the pavement or get off-road. With serious off-road capability on mud, sand, dirt or grass, these tyres will have you staying on-track.
Top Speed Unlocked
El Hefe arrives locked to a 25km/h speed limit, which can be changed via the LCD control panel on your handlebars to unlock unlimited speed. Customise your ride and push your limits whenever you choose.
JUSTEK Saddle
We understand you need to keep comfortable in your ride. There’s nothing worse than riding a bike with a hard and uncomfortable seat! That’s why we’ve partnered with Justek for all our bike seats. Hefe’s seat is well-cushioned and will have you cruisin’ in comfort for longer.
SHIMANO 8-Speed Gear Set
El Hefe comes fitted with a SHIMANO 8-speed gear set. Cruisin’ up and down the gears feels truly effortless, allowing you to easily adjust to different terrains and riding conditions.
Coloured Display with USB Charger
The easy-to-use BC Coloured Display with USB charging offers excellent visibility and control over all bike settings. Stay informed and in control day or night, with all necessary information at your fingertips.
Integrated Front & Rear Lights
Ready to ride day or night, El Hefe comes with fully integrated front and rear lights. Unlike competitors, our bikes include essential lighting, plus additional reflectors under the seat and in the wheel spokes for extra visibility.

I’ve just received my new El Hefe. What a bike! I live in a hilly area & the bike flys up the hills with no problem. It’s comfortable, looks good & comes complete. Nothing else to buy. If you don’t have one, get one now!
[UPDATE] It’s been a year since I posted , so, I thought I’d update. I’m still loving my El hefe. Being over 60 & partially disabled, exercise can be problematic. With El Hefe, no problems. Comfortable seat, good gear range & good battery life. The customer service from the Vamos team has been exemplary. I’ve customised my bike, with a springer front forks & leather saddle bags, to give that vintage look.
I love my bike. I can’t recommend Vamos Bikes enough !

It’s been more than a year now since I’ve sold my car and chosen to commute to work exclusively by bike. Alternating days on my road bike and ebike, I get to ride by the river and through park lands daily vs being stuck in traffic. 2 days on the Vamos El Hefe and 3 days on my road bike makes it sustainable and fun. I can honestly say that I’ve consistently had a brighter and more productive day as a result! I arrive to work happier and definitely energised which is a win for my students!
3000km now and still going strong. Unleash the beast! What’s surprising is that I don’t miss my car! El Hefe has been a trooper. What headwind?

Since Conrad dropped off my Vamos El Hefe cruiser e-bike, I feel like my world has opened up. It’s SO much easier to hit my daily surf checks of Bondi Beach, Tamarama and Bronte, and yesterday when the surf was small, I took myself on a ride of the hilly backstreets of Bronte to check out the swing overlooking Bronte Beach for the first time. An amazing way to clear my head and get those Sunday vibes flowing right!

Absolutely love my new Vamos El Hefe Bike. Firstly, I wanted to back a local company, price was really good, reviews were good, gear (Shimano / Samsung) spot on. Really hard to fault. Customer service was brilliant, as was delivery (despite a slight delay which is down to customs and overall e-commerce being overwhelmed for all companies). Final comments - fairly basic to assemble, rides really well on the beach, road, tracks. Lights all easy to use. Super comfy. Thrilled with this thing. ️

From the monent I saw the El Hefe, I knew this was the bike for me. Being a fairly big guy, I thought that its larger size would make me feel more at home and I wasn't wrong! I use this bike a lot now and I'm amazed at how far I can travel using assistance from the motor. The styling is very cool as is the practicality. It is quite heavy but considering the amount of equipment and size of the bike, this is to be expected. I just love it!

Got my El Hefe, a few probs putting it together correctly. The guys at Vamos were instantly answering emails at 9pm.
I'm 75 and lovin my bike. I'm 6'1". A good fit for me, very comfortable
At my age I needed strength and stability. I have a quarter KM of dirt road before I get to a sealed road at my house. I also have a very steep hill so the power was a big factor.
The clincher was an Aussie company. Thanks Vamos.
... and who'd a thunk? Never thought I'd need a surfboard carrier at 74. Perfect to carry my bow to archery on my El Hefe.
UPDATE: Just coming up to 1,000ks on my El Hefe. Zero probs and loving it.

Fantastic bikes - would highly recommend. Unbelievably comfortable seats, reliable, safe and speedy. Plus I looked like a total legend riding El Hefe

I purchased the Vamos El Hefe at the end of January 2019 and it's been spot on for commuting to and from work without breaking a sweat. The lo, med, hi power settings are really handy and the throttle really helps when you need a quick boost when riding in one of the lower power settings or if you stop pedalling. Although this bike is on the heavier side of other road bikes the brakes last a lot longer than expected. I did recently get a puncture on the rear wheel and the Vamos team was really helpful and responsive to come fix it. It's really comfortable to ride and I really like the style. I've had it 10 months now and I still love it.
My commute to work is 9km one way and one charge easily does the two way journey on full power with three of the five l.e.d's still lit on the battery.
Weighing up the battery life, durability, style, power and price I'd highly recommend this bike to anyone. It definitely beats catching the depressing bus to work.
Suits Every Rider
El Hefe suits riders of all sizes, from 5’ to 6’6”. With fully adjustable handlebars and seating, it’s perfect for everyone. The powerful motor and fat tyres handle various terrains, while the step-through frame and low seat option ensure comfort and accessibility for all.
