Riese & Müller Nevo GX Rohloff 2019 Ride Report [VIDEO]

December 11, 2018 by Pete 1 Comment

Electric Bike Report has already looked at several Riese & Müller models – from the Homage, New Charger, Delite and Packster ranges, all based around Riese & Müller’s unique and practical yet funkily attractive frame designs.

We’ve also taken a close look at the previous Nevo model here and here. 

The Nevo design has been updated for 2019 with an inframe battery as standard and the option of a second battery mounted on the down tube.

The GX Rohloff variant is new for 2019, giving an off-road twist to the previous range that was orientated towards riding on hard surfaces and the electronically shifting Rohloff hub gears also add further gearing options not previously available to the ever expanding Nevo family. This model is priced at US $7099 GB £5319.

The off-road facet is combined with the most powerful of the Bosch mid-drives, the Performance Line CX. 

The practical and easy to use low step-thru frame remains, now combining it’s excellent commuting, shopping and leisure riding credentials with off-road ability and low maintenance, evidenced by the Gates Carbon belt drive.  [Read more…]

Riese & Müller Delite Mountain Rohloff Ride Report [VIDEO]

June 20, 2018 by Richard Peace 2 Comments

Is this the most capable off-road e-bike out there?

We have already tried four high quality offerings from Riese & Müller; the New Charger, the Nevo, the Homage GT Nuvinci and the Packster 40 Nuvinci.

Whilst these bikes were all taken off-road to a greater or lesser degree they were not full-on mountain bikes.

By contrast Riese & Müller’s Delite Mountain Rohloff is not only a full-suspension e-mtb but it packs many features that other e-mtbs don’t, including a 1,000Wh dual battery system, Rohloff’s incredibly tough 14 hub gear system (with electronic shifting to boot), powerful LED lights and the option of a chunky rear pannier rack.

It’s totally unique and certainly on paper looks like a candidate for the title of Most Capable Off-road Bike in Serial Production Today.

Does it live up to this label? [Read more…]

The Latest Electric Bikes from Eurobike 2017 – Part 1

September 6, 2017 by Paul Willerton 3 Comments

Twelve months have already flown by since my Eurobike 2016 report. One year ago, an eBike maelstrom hit the cycling industry.

Taking up 50% of the floorspace at Eurobike, it was suddenly clear where the growth in cycling was coming from. One year later, my assessment is the eBike again took more real estate at Eurobike, but only fractionally compared to last year.

Most noticeable was the further refinement of the technologies and design. Bicycle brands that may have scoffed at eBikes a few short years ago not only caught the bug, but arrived with some amazing electric assist models that will drive design to new heights.

To kick things off, here are a few of the Eurobike Award Winner’s. [Read more…]

Optibike SIMBB – The All in One Mid Drive Electric Bike [VIDEO]

February 19, 2014 by Pete 6 Comments

opti-bike-simbb
Optibike is one of the most innovative electric bike companies and to prove that they recently introduced their SIMBB electric bike with a mid drive system that houses everything (motor, battery and controller) in an aluminum case that is a structural part of the frame.

According to Jim Turner (Founder & President of Optibike), when many people first see the system they ask where the battery is!  It is pretty impressive that everything is housed in a relatively small mid drive case.

By housing the motor and battery in the bottom bracket area it keeps [Read more…]
