Yes, our new CAD drawings are done! Small changes mean so much in making the perfect eBike. Just like they used to say, this is not your father’s eBike…..
Like a number of manufacturers, they believed that all they needed to do was slap a motor on a bike and their engineering was done. Many are finding now that there is more to an ebike. Integrating a motor or battery is not simple. We worked hard just on getting better ground clearance. To have a high wattage motor, at this time you need a larger case for the motor. Until motors improve further to produce higher wattage in smaller cases, we will have to contend with specific bike designs. And, we love our fat tire beach cruisers for that purpose. It is an incredible e-Bike platform.
Updates include:
- A more secure integrated battery
- Better ground clearance
- An even stronger fork
- Soul Fast tires that are 35% lighter than our current tires
- Improved Tektro brakes
