DUOTTS C29 Lite 250W 36V 13Ah
Description
DUOTTS C29 Lite – Entry-Level Urban E-Bike 250W, Legally Compliant, 65km Range
The C29 Lite is the most accessible model in the DUOTTS urban range: a 250W motor, 36V 13Ah battery and 27.5×2.25” tyres in a robust steel frame. At 25 km/h maximum motor-assisted speed and 65km range, the C29 Lite is fully EPAC-compliant without any modifications — the straightforward choice for everyday city commuting.
Unlike the C29-L and C29-K which require a speed limiter adjustment to stay legal, the C29 Lite operates at exactly 25 km/h maximum — always within EU EPAC regulations. No hidden unlock codes, no grey areas. The steel frame adds durability at the cost of a small weight penalty (27.8kg), making it a solid choice for riders who want a reliable, low-maintenance commuter.

Build & Components
250W EPAC-compliant motor – the simplest legal classification
In the EU, an EPAC (EN 15194) must have a motor of 250W nominal power and cut out at 25 km/h. The C29 Lite meets both criteria natively — no speed limiter to unlock, no legal grey area. This matters for insurance, liability and access to cycling infrastructure (bike lanes, cycle paths) where higher-powered e-bikes may be restricted.
Steel frame vs aluminium – the practical trade-off
The C29 Lite uses a steel frame, unlike the aluminium frames on the C29-L and C29-K. Steel is heavier (27.8kg total) but more resistant to dents and easier to repair if damaged. For commuters who lock their bike in public and aren’t carrying it up stairs regularly, steel is a practical choice.
