Dawes Discovery 2.0 Low Step Hybrid Bike, Medium (18.5")

The Discovery 2.0 in a step-through frame — same aluminium chassis, same 2x8 Altus gearing and disc brakes, but with a dropped top tube so you can get on and off in whatever you're wearing. The practical choice for commuting, the school run and errands.

Who it fits

Medium 18.5" low step frame. As a general guide that suits most riders around 5'5" to 5'10", with the 16.5" Small below it. The low step frame is worth choosing if you ride in work clothes or a skirt, carry panniers, or have any hip, knee or back restriction.

What you're getting

• Gears: Shimano Altus 2x8 with trigger shifters, 46/30T chainset and 11–32T cassette
• Brakes: 160mm mechanical disc, consistent in the wet and simple to adjust at home
• Frame: lightweight aluminium low step with a raised head tube for better road visibility, and dropped seat stays to absorb vibration
• Tyres: 40mm wide, puncture protected, with reflective accents for low-light visibility
• Practicalities: mounts for full mudguards and a rear rack, ergonomic bars, lock-on grips and a padded saddle

Why we can price like this

We're an authorised Dawes dealer — but we don't run a shop.

No showroom. No shop floor. No stock sitting in a warehouse depreciating. Your bike is picked and dispatched from the manufacturer's own facility and comes straight to your door.

A traditional bike shop has to cover premises, staff and stockholding before it makes a penny, and that has to come out of the ticket price. We don't carry those costs, so we're not asking you to pay for them.

What you don't lose: full manufacturer warranty, because we're an authorised dealer and not a grey importer. A real person to talk sizing through with before you order.
