If you have the budget for a high-end electric bike, the Lapierre E-Urban 6.5 might interest you. Its Bosch motor is powerful and we appreciate its great autonomy thanks to its 500 Wh battery. If we put aside the somewhat limited transmission and the front headlight which deserves to be more powerful, it is a particularly attractive and comfortable urban electric bike.

Roborock Dyad Pro: a particularly effective mop

The Roborock Dyad Pro impressed us with its build quality, cleaning efficiency, battery life and maneuverability. It is very practical and can pass very close to the walls and its microfiber rollers dry quickly. Be careful, the self-cleaning is noisy, the DirTect Smart Senso technology can still be improved on uneven floors and the “official” detergent is still a bit expensive.
