>>Any recommendations please?
I was going to ask if the bike I have would be suitable, but Cube seem to have shot up in price. I paid under £2,000 for the 2020 model of this one, but they are now £2,800 on the same site. Mine has the Active Plus (IIRC) 50Nm motor which is absolutely fine, I see they now have the next motor up.

I changed the bar for a swept back style as I have a neck problem and need to be head up, added a suspension seatpost and my saddle of choice and I find it very comfortable on roads.
Have a look at the Ortlers on the same site. They are very similar to Cube based on the only one I've seen

There tend to be step through and trapeze versions of most road based models as well as the standard crossbar.
That one is a Shimano motor. Daughter has two bikes with those, which have been good.
There's a lot to be said for buying from your LBS (local bike shop) although Bikester is good for browsing and I ended up buying from them as most shops here had no stock at the time.
