Featuring new, unbeatable specifications such as sports a Shimano STEPS 250W motor, Alfine Di2 8-speed gear hub together with a Gates CDX Carbon Belt Drive system. This unmatched combination of specs makes the Axis the first foldable electric bike of its kind to hit the market.
Lightweight materials reduce the weight down to just 16kg*; another first for a folding e-bike. Additionally, the effortless folding mechanism makes this the perfect bike to take on a train, bus or car.
The incorporation of the Gates CDX carbon belt drive system dramatically reduces the need for maintenance and cleaning. It also requires no lubricants, at the same time as allowing a surprisingly noiseless, peaceful ride. This is made possible by the drive system’s stretch-free carbon-fibre tensile cords covered by a waterproofing polyurethane shell.
For a straightforward experience, the 8-speed DI2 gear hub delivers fully-automatic gear shifting.
To provide a powerful yet lightweight propulsion, the Axis comes packed with the latest Shimano STEPS technology.
The Axis includes the latest advances in electric bike technology. With an up to 60 miles range, the high capacity 36V Lithium Sony battery won’t let you down. Its 1000 charge-discharge cycles mean a lifetime of 60 000 miles.
Because safety is a priority, Alfine hydraulic disc-brakes are integrated on both wheels to maximize braking effectiveness and reliability. Furthermore, the chunky 20×2.1” Schwalbe Big Apple tyres ensure protection against the day-to-day knocks.
