Size chart

Here you will find the best approximate information on optimal sizing that we can offer. Sizing varies by the manufacturer, type of bike, and other variants but this rough guide should help give you an idea. Sizing can also be individually subjective so If you have any more specific requirements regarding this information, we highly recommend calling our expert staff on 01268 695877 or coming into the shop.

We also recommend researching the manufacturer of the bike you are interested in directly - many manufacturer websites now offer a dedicated fit/size guide where you can enter your measurements on official websites.

*We require a minimum voucher value of £500 in order to process a scheme purchase, from any provider.

As one of the BIGGEST Independent UK Bike Shops, Les's Cycles process multiple Cycle To Work scheme orders everyday, dispatching bikes across the UK. All voucher related sales are subject to availability and our discretion to accept them*.

We highly recommend you place a non-refundable deposit on any bike you wish to purchase via a scheme to ensure it is reserved for you, though this is not absolutely required.

In the event that a deposit paid will not be used on a purchase involving a voucher, you can convert it to store credit only in the form of a gift voucher or discount code against a separate purchase.

IMPORTANT NOTE REGARDING SALE BIKES: Any bike that has been reduced in value still CAN be acquired but customers will need to cover the fees imposed on us by the scheme provider(s), listed below. Unfortunately the charges imposed by scheme providers are very high, much higher than usual transactional fees. There is no flexibility with this and we only offer sale or reduced products on scheme services as a gesture of goodwill to our customers.

You can either add the surcharge to your voucher total or pay it separately (recommended).

Example scheme provider fees for Sale products;

WE RECOMMEND: Gogeta.bike: 4%

Greencommuteinitiative.uk (GCI): 5%
Bike2workscheme.co.uk: 10%

Vivup: 12.5% on sale bikes, 10% on full price bikes
Cycle2Work: 15% on sale bikes, 10% on full price bikes
Halfords Cycle2Work: 15% on sale bikes, 10% on full price bikes

To get started and place an order:

SEND US A MESSAGE OR EMAIL - We'll need you to provide details on the scheme you wish to use and the bike and size required so that we can confirm its available. If you are not ready to immediately proceed, you will be advised to place a small non-refundable deposit to hold the bike. The deposit will be paid back or counted towards commission charges if applicable. If after six weeks you do not redeem an order with us after reserving a bike, deposits are non-refundable and can only be converted to store credit.

For more specific information on any scheme or to ask if we can accept an unlisted scheme, please contact us or visit the shop!

The Dawes Arc electric folding bike has been revamped with an all-new design and near-doubling of its battery range while retaining the classic easy-fold features it has become known for amongst commuters and the caravan, motorhome and boating communities.

The Arc has a 375wh integrated battery that provides up to 40 miles/64km of range and can be charged from flat in 5 hours. The power is delivered by the well-regarded Bafang rear hub motor system that provides 32nm of torque, easily assisting you up steep hills and making light work across flat terrain. It also has a USB port that allows you to charge your phone or other accessories when you reach your destination.

The motor has various modes of assist that can be chosen from the backlit handlebar display while also providing you essential information such as battery level, current speed, trip distance and total distance.

The Dawes Arc is fitted with a 1x7 speed Shimano Altus/Tourney gearing system with an upgraded trigger shifter for solid gear shifts and confidence inspiring mechanical disc brakes that will safely bring you to a stop come rain or shine.

Over many years of developing folding bikes, we find that using a 20" wheel offers the perfect blend of comfort, stability and speed compared to a 16” whilst also small enough to fold down to a compact size. This wheel size comes into its own with high volume 20x2.40” tyres that boosts comfort and makes you feel like you are riding a bike with suspension – but without the added weight.

Folding the Dawes Arc is quick, simple, and easy to do – with pedals that fold in, a stem that folds down and the main frame that folds in half. In 3 easy steps and less than 15 seconds, you have a bike that can be stowed away neatly and its just as quick to build it back and get out on the road.

The lightweight alloy frame helps keep the weight down for lifting in and out of storage or onto public transport. With its carefully designed one-size-fits-all geometry and adjustable height stem, it is suitable for riders 5'0" to 6'2" (152cm to 188cm).

To finish the bike off with everything you need for all weather riding and commuting, a specially designed pannier rack, full length mudguards and kickstand are included as standard.

Customer Reviews of Les's Cycles

★★★★★

Les’s Cycles has to be the best cycle shop in Essex. All the staff are friendly and helpful.
A small store from the outside but an Aladdin’s cave on the inside.
Not at all pushy like big chains.
Will not be going anywhere else from now on
Thank you Les’s Cycles

Just got my e bike sorted by Les Cycles. They were brilliant. My bike is under warranty and the manufacturer wasn’t very helpful at all. Despite this Les Cycles persisted and managed to eventually get the part needed. They fixed it all up and now I’m happily cycling again. Would definitely recommend them. The after care they give is truly first class.

The best bike shop by far.
Order a bike late on a Saturday (11:30pm) and by 11am the next day it was built and ready for me to collect.
The staff were more than happy to spend time explaining all about my new ebike, never had one so I had alot of questions.
Very knowledgeable and helpful.
