The app simply gives you more control: customize No Assist, Eco, Turbo, and Custom modes to tailor your experience to every ride.

80% re-charge in just 2 hours

You can recharge up to 80% of your battery in just 2 hours, and 100% in 3 hours.

 

Construction Philosophy

 Our frame and fork are meticulously engineered using double-butted 4130 Chromoly steel tubing.

This process strategically varies wall thickness along the length of each tube—thicker at the high-stress joints for maximum strength and durability,

and thinner along the midsections to significantly reduce weight without compromising integrity.

Inspired by the typical Japanese bikes you can find everywhere in Tokyo.

 

Key frame & fork benefits

Optimized Performance Triad: Achieves the ideal balance of strengthlow weight, and vertical compliance.

Superior Vibration Damping: The natural flex properties of Chromoly steel absorb high-frequency road vibrations,

reducing rider fatigue and providing a smoother, more comfortable ride than aluminum or carbon frames.

Exceptional Strength-to-Weight Ratio

 4130 Chromoly offers approximately twice the yield strength of traditional high-tensile steel, allowing for a dramatically lighter and more responsive frame

that retains legendary steel durability and longevity.

Ride Quality

 Delivers a renowned, lively, and resilient feel—often described as the “perfect blend of comfort and efficiency.”

 

Key Terminology Explained:

4130 Chromoly Steel: A chromium-molybdenum alloy steel known for its high strength,

excellent weldability, and good ductility.

Double-Butted: A tube manufacturing process where the tube has two different wall thicknesses:

thicker ends for strength at the joints and a thinner center to save weight.

This is the mark of a high-quality frame but still resulting in an ultra light e-bike.

to extend your ride and charges in just 3 hours (100%) with the included, portable charger.

The system receives regular over-the-air software updates and allows for remote diagnostics.
