FLYER E-MTB Uproc X receives Design & Innovation Award

With the FLYER Uproc X e-mountainbike, FLYER wins the prestigious Design & Innovation Award 2022. The bike industry award is a seal of quality and benchmark for outstanding products. This is the second time in a row that FLYER has won the award in the e-mountainbike category with its new top model.

"With the Uproc X, FLYER has found a new formula for the modern climbing machine: Thanks to its sophisticated geometry, the Uproc X positions the rider perfectly on the e-mountainbike for steep climbs. The powerful Panasonic GX Ultimate motor delivers opulent power without detours to propel the FLYER unstoppably up every mountain, while still being able to sensitively develop its 95 Nm of torque in smart automatic mode. FLYER combines the innovative motor system with the FIT 2.0 control system, which shines with a high level of connectivity and digital features," was the jury's verdict.

In addition, the Uproc X impressed the experts with its innovative carbon frame, which has a clever mounting system that allows the large 750 Wh battery to be securely attached and easily removed at the same time. The jury saw further plus points in the integrated Monkey Link interfaces for the simple installation of headlights and the successful integration of the Panasonic motor. The FLYER Uproc X 9.50 model was tested

"We are delighted with the award for the Uproc X. We have developed a new carbon frame for this powerful bike and balanced the geometry down to the finest detail. It was important to us that the bike is really fun on every trail. The jury of the Design & Innovation Award has now impressively confirmed that our project team has created a perfect trail bike," says FLYER Product Manager Philipp Suter.

Premium eMTB with innovative details

The four-bar linkage with 150 mm suspension travel, carbon rocker arms, large industrial bearings and specifically tuned shocks ensure that this performance eMTB offers control, safety and plenty of freedom of movement off-road. Thanks to the Panasonic GX Ultimate Pro Fit drive with 95 Nm torque and 600 watts peak power, the Uproc X has plenty of thrust for the steepest climbs. The 750 Wh battery provides plenty of energy for long tours. The bolt-on battery mount guarantees a vibration-free fit for the fully integrated battery and allows it to be removed in a few simple steps. The top models boast a fully integrated stem/handlebar unit.

All models have a MonkeyLink interface to which a headlight can be connected in a single step. The mixed-wheels concept with a 29-inch front wheel and a 27.5-inch rear wheel enables excellent rollover behavior, plenty of grip and maximum agility.

New FIT 2.0 technology - intelligent system integration and tuning to individual riding needs
The FIT 2.0 system integration enables intuitive operation and smart functions such as the individual adjustment of riding modes or GPS navigation. Another new feature is the "Boost function". This allows the motor to be briefly switched to turbo mode at any support level, which is helpful when conquering steep climbs, for example. The easily replaceable display can be upgraded to a larger display at any time.

The FLYER Uproc X will be available in four equipment variants and two colors from summer 2022 at selected specialist retailers (RRP from CHF 5,899).
