• Our main goals when developing the geometry for this bike were to provide enough clearance for the large-volume 650B tyres, sufficient loading height for the front rack and a relaxed riding position. We incorporated a low bottom bracket and long head tube into the design to fully achieve all three aims. In order to mount a suspension seat post and give the bike traditional sloping-style geometry, we also made the seat tube a little shorter. On this model, you can also mount a child seat without it hindering your mobility.

• A reliable, lightweight rear-engine with sophisticated controls, combined with a sleek battery - MAHLE ebikemotion has managed to unite these requirements in one system. A noticeable boost upon the first pedal stroke puts the bike in pole position as soon as the traffic light turns green. In the MAHLE ebikemotion app, the boost can be adjusted individually per support level. The rear engine is reliable, silent and perfectly matched to the battery. The battery can be removed in case of service by a specialist dealer.

• LightSKIN U2 is the world's smallest bicycle front light that meets the high standards of German StVZO. As being a true lightweight of just 25 grams, vibration and shocks transmitted during the ride have only a minimal impact on internal electronics. Combined with an aluminium body, providing optimal cooling characteristics for the LEDs, LightSKIN U2 is made for an exceptional long lifespan.

• The perfect symbiosis between a one-of-a-kind riding and shifting experience now comes in a new, compact design. Pinion C-Line drives are the smallest and yet most powerful central gearboxes on the market. This model comes in 6, 9 or 12 gears and covers a ratio of up to 295% (6-gear) or 600% (12-gear) and therefore is perfectly tuned for city riding. The compact gearbox fits neatly into the frame design and comes with a resilient powder coating.

• When it’s switched off, you’ll hardly notice the CURANA ILU back light as the neat design forms part of the front mudguard. The LED light meets German road traffic regulations and even stays on when you’re not pedalling so you can still be seen when stopped at traffic lights.

• The Gates Carbon Drive belt is revolutionary in terms of bike power transmission. Requiring zero maintenance, the belt also lasts approximately 3-4 times longer than a chain. What’s more, the belt is super strong and efficient because of the embedded carbon fibres as well as being extremely quiet and incredibly lightweight. Life is also a lot easier when your trousers are still clean after travelling by bike thanks to the absence of oil and grease.

• The range depends on several factors. Decisive are the terrain, overall weight (bike and rider) and the starting frequency, e.g. at multiple traffic lights. Leisurely cyclists light on baggage and with few stops can travel a range of 80 km per battery charge in the first support mode (green LED) mode. If you prefer to travel faster or have more baggage with you, it will still travel around 50 km before the extra boost of the motor is absent. But even then the onward journey is no problem, because even without e-motor, Arthur still maintains a natural riding experience.

• We like the idea of a belt drive that blends in with the rear triangle - with our patented Schindelhauer Belt Port (SBP) system, the opening is practically invisible. Changing your drive belt is easy. Wave-like in form, the interlocking connector forms a firm connection between the seatstay and chainstay. Plus, just like a jigsaw piece, it can easily be removed and reinstalled. Normally couplings or bolt connections would be visible around the seatstay area, but with Schindelhauer bikes a bolt connects the SBP to the stiff structure once again as if an opening never existed. We are very proud of the clean, minimalist design of our bikes.

• A reduced design e-bike needs a shapely control element. MAHLE ebikemotion motors are controlled by the iWoc One Button, which makes an intuitive operation possible, without bothersome elements.
  With a long press on the button, the engine is switched on and off, the colours green, orange and red indicate the assistance level, which is immediately noticeable.
  The button works in conjunction with the MAHLE Ebikemotion app. Features such as speedometer, weather data and GPS navigation are displayed here. The bike is also ready for use without the app.

• Our hydroforming fork, especially designed for our e-bikes, sets a new standard for what is possible with the raw material aluminium. Due to its one-piece-hydroforming-method, a completely hollow fork is created, which is both rigid and lightweight and leaves enough space for internal cable routing. The forged drops, an elegant postmount-brake calliper and Thru-axle system complete this multi featured fork. With its big tyre clearance our hydroforming fork is made for every adventure.

• Shimano hydraulic disc brakes work with mineral oil, require very little maintenance and are characterised by excellent braking performance. The classic design fits perfectly with our bikes.

• We find it really handy to be able to carry heavy items on our bikes and so decided to design a front rack that securely attaches to the frame. The rack does not affect steering and Gustav can sail through traffic even with heavier items on board. We have equipped it with the innovative VarioStraps system, which can be adjusted to adapt to the size and shape of whatever you are carrying. When not in use, the straps can be tucked away discreetly on the rack.

• We want cyclists to be comfortable and able to explore the city at high speeds. To guarantee both, we opted for the WTB Horizon 650 B. The tyre makes light of cobblestones without the need to reduce pedalling speed. Reflective strips ensure you’re safely seen in the dark and the brown strip on the sides adds a little chic.
