The "E-Horizon Sport Gent black" model from Bergamont, released in 2022, is a versatile e-bike suitable for a wide range of uses. Priced at 3,299 EUR, it offers a solid specification and high-quality components.

The frame of the E-Horizon Sport Gent black is made from an ultra-light AL-6061 tube set and is designed for 28-inch wheels. The integrated PowerTube battery ensures a clean look and even weight distribution. The maximum permissible weight is 140 kg, whilst the bike itself weighs in at 25 kg.

Braking performance is provided by Shimano hydraulic disc brakes (BR-MT200) with an SM-RT10 rotor (180/160 mm). The brake levers are also from Shimano (BL-MT200) and offer reliable and safe braking performance. The rear derailleur is a Shimano Deore RD-M4120 Shadow with a 1x10-speed Rapidfire Plus shifter (SL-M4100), which enables precise and quick gear changes.

The Suntour NEX E25 fork with 63 mm of travel ensures comfort and control on a wide variety of surfaces. For lighting, the bike is fitted with a B&M Dopp front light (30 lux, LED, e-bike version) and a B&M Toplight 2 C rear light (LED), which ensure good visibility in road traffic.

Other features include Trekking alloy pedals, a Bosch bottom bracket with ISIS mount, and an FSA CK-320 crankset with 38 teeth. The cassette is a Shimano Deore CS-M4100 with 11–42 teeth, and the drivetrain uses a KMC e10S chain. The BGM Pro handlebars have a 15° backsweep and a 5 mm rise, complemented by BGM Comfort Ergo Double Density screw-on grips. The stem is adjustable within a range of 17 to 25 degrees.

The headset is a semi-integrated FSA NO.57SC-1 A-Headset, whilst the Ryde Rival 23 rims are eyeletted and designed for disc brakes. The tyres are Schwalbe Energizer Active Plus with reflective stripes (47-622); the Shimano hubs are also designed for disc brakes and feature quick-release mechanisms. The spokes are Sapim Leader.

The Selle Royal Essenza Plus saddle ensures comfort, mounted on a BGM Pro seatpost. SKS mudguards with stainless steel struts and an SKS Chainbooster chain guard offer additional protection against dirt and wet conditions. A Syncros kickstand and a Racktime/BGM Trekking Pro luggage rack with integrated mudguard mounts round off the specification.

The E-Horizon Sport Gent black is powered by a fourth-generation Bosch Drive Unit Performance Line CX Cruise motor with 250 W of power and a maximum speed of 25 km/h. The Bosch PowerTube battery has a capacity of 625 Wh, and the Bosch Purion display provides all the necessary information at a glance. The battery is charged using the Bosch Compact Charger (2A).

Overall, the 2022 Bergamont E-Horizon Sport Gent black offers a balanced combination of performance, comfort and versatility at a fair price.
