Transalpes launches perhaps the lightest e-bike
Transalpes has been developing mountain bikes since 2002. Each Transalpes is built by hand according to the customer's wishes in the bike factory in Zwillikon near Zurich. For its 20th anniversary, Transalpes is launching perhaps the lightest e-bike. The E1 has a fully integrated e-bike system built into the frame. The e-bike drive is developed and produced in Switzerland by Maxon. The "Maxon BIKEDRIVE AIR System" is light and powerful. It supports mountain bikers when pedaling and, thanks to its unique freewheel technology, ensures a natural riding experience, just like on a mountain bike without a motor.
From the Marsmobile to the e-bike
A new e-bike system is invisibly installed in the frame of the Transalpes E1. Only the discreet control element on the top tube reveals that there is more power in this bike. 3.5 kilograms system weight, 30 Newton meters of torque, 250 watt hours in the built-in battery is the performance record of the new Swiss e-bike system. An additional range extender guarantees flexibility when planning bike tours.
With the Connect app, the smartphone becomes the command center: the support can be individually adjusted in three levels, and all important information is visible at a glance. "You no longer have to go to Mars to experience supernatural riding fun," enthuses Michel Juhasz, owner of Transalpes. "Our technology is designed to deliver as much power as possible with the lowest possible weight. And absolutely reliably," says Eugen Elmiger, CEO of Maxon. The entire e-bike system is tested and assembled in Switzerland on a specially developed production line.Customizable e-bike from Switzerland
The Transalpes E1 will be presented as a world first at the maxon stand (A1-407) at Eurobike from September 1 to 4, 2021. Like every Transalpes, the e-bike can be individually configured and ordered in any favorite color. The first of these e-mountainbikes will be delivered as the Transalpes "E1 Swiss Edition" at a price of CHF 8,990 in December 2021. The E1 can now be configured and ordered in Transalpes test centers, at selected dealers and online. The E1 and all other Transalpes mountain bikes will also be available for testing at the testRIDE in Lenzerheide and subsequently at the Transalpes test centers, at selected dealers and at the bike factory in Zwillikon.
