Heinrich - The Multitalent

• When fitting a drive belt on a bike, you need an ultra-strong frame and rigid rear triangle. Parts and components made from aluminium are both strong and lightweight, making it the ideal material to use when designing rigid bikes. For this reason, at Schindelhauer Bikes we manufacture all our frames with high-quality 6061 aluminium. The forged dropout connects the slider-belt-tensioning-system and our in-house developed SBP (Schindelhauer Belt Port). This means the bike frame is ready to be fitted with the Gates Belt Drive.
  
  With our E-Bikes we achieve this stability and stiffness through a multi-cell down tube, a forged motor bridge and large cross-section chain stays. The seat tube has been reworked and can fit a child seat.

• For the Bosch system, we have developed completely new frames with a very compact motor bridge.
  Due to the close, optimal integration of the motor we achieved an, inside the E-Bike segment, incomparably short chainstay. This makes for a short wheelbase while still maintaining a comfortable seating position. The top tube is comparably long and the riding feel very agile.
  
  While developing the frame we focused on stiffness as well, in order to ensure a rigid, agile feel and a direct transmission. This stiffness is made possible thanks to a multi-cell down tube, in which the removable Bosch PowerTube 500 battery is optimally integrated.

• The choice of assistance is made via the Bosch Kiox display, which can be used to select the four motor levels, from Eco (minimum assistance) to Turbo (maximum assistance), as well as displaying the driving speed. Kiox has connectivity features to automatically transfer ride data via Bluetooth to the eBike Connect app.

• The PowerTube 500 battery enables a range which, depending on the motor level, can last for multiple trips to work, shopping or out into nature. The battery is removable and fully charged in 4.5 hours. Bosch batteries have a long service life, are tested to the very highest safety standards and can be charged at any time, regardless of their battery status. Interruptions of the charging process do not damage the batteries. A complete discharge is not necessary.

• Bosch is not without reason the market leader in e-bike drive systems. This includes a reliable run time, high safety standards, a dense service network and the regular and obligatory training of dealer partners. The third generation of Bosch motors impresses with long range and virtually unnoticeable pedalling resistance when the motor is switched off or while riding above 25 km/h. The Performance Line is characterized by particularly powerful support and high torque.
  
  Bosch mid-mounted drive units work reliably even on inclines, as the motor analyses the interaction between the shift, torque and cadence, ensuring optimal efficiency and energy use.

• The range depends on several factors and can be determined in the Bosch range calculator. Decisive factors 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 an unbeatable range of 200 km per battery charge in Eco mode. If you prefer to travel faster or have more baggage with you, it will still travel 80—120 km before the extra boost of the motor is absent. But even then the onward journey is no problem, because even without e-motor, our Bosch bikes still maintains a natural riding experience.

• The Mini 2 front light has it all: thanks to the new Terraflux 3 lens, the brightness has been increased to more than 15%. In addition to the optimized reflector it creates an ideal road illumination. The energy is supplied via the e-bike battery.

• Impressively bright and lightweight, the Supernova E3 Tail Light 2 adds the final touch to a top-notch lighting system. The Supernova is the brightest tail light on the market within permitted limits; it includes a stand light function and weighs a mere 12g. That’s as light as safety gets.

• Based on NuVinci technology, enviolo hubs allow an unlimited number of gear ratios. In the AUTOMATiQ version, the stepless change is fully automatic, based on the personal cadence. Regardless of the given situation, this ensures optimum power transmission at all times - for example in stop-and-go traffic or on rural tours. More attention is paid to surrounding events, as no concentration is required to change gears.

• Wingee manage to walk the line between creating robust, well-designed mudguards, as well as integrating a bracket onto which pannier bags can be attached. Thus a high-quality mudguard-rack-combination with a very minimalistic design was created. The set weighs only 1kg and is solidly made to carry a load of 8kg per side.

• 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.

• 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.

• The hydraulic MT401 disc brake (160 mm) from Shimano impresses with durable, balanced braking power.

• 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.

• 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.

• Designed for a firm grip: the Viktor Rubber Grips have a fine diamond profile to provide a secure hold and a comfortable feel on longer rides. The clamp mounting ensures they will always stay in place.

• Pedal around in style – we sent ourselves on a mission to find the perfect pedal and ended up developing our own: the Urban Pedal. The flat pedal is slip proof to ensure ideal power transmission at all times. Built to be a top-notch performer, the light, CNC-machined pedal is equipped with a CrMo Axle, sealed bearings and IGUS plain bearings. You can opt to fit it with our pedal clips or pedal straps.

• The handlebar geometry is tuned for a relaxed and comfortable seating position.

• The Scoop saddle is minimalist and sporty. The robust Cro-Mo rail offers a stable basis for your daily adventures on the road and the shallow profile boosts comfort. Visually, the saddle looks as if it’s been cast from one piece because of innovative vacuum processing.
