Innovative New Motors And Tech | E-Bike Highlights From Eurobike 2018

Game changing new releases from Haibike, they've completely upped the e-bike game, although there are some pretty sweet new pieces of tech from Mubea and Fazua as well as a very neat looking Lapierre.

The new Haibike has some amazing integration, lights, a dropper post and motor, along with what is possibly one of the worlds fastest charging battery! And it's all housed in a full carbon frame... very neat. Is this the future of E-Biking?

The Fazua battery and motor combination is also really slick, and possibly one of the easiest and fastest to mount that we've ever seen.

"It even got lights on the back! Mental!" - Lights on the front AND back? Madness.

My favourite bit of tech was the tripomiter. I’ve never heard of that!

[blackbird]

Love that new Haibike system, awesome intergration and 120 is gonna blow everything out of the water as long as it supports high cadence.

[RobRidesEMTB]

Nice overview chaps. I was also wowed by both the Haibike FLYON and the Lapierre eZesty, two completely different bikes but both equally amazing and innovative.

[iamrocketray]

Motor and gears combined that's the future, BUT I'm not a rich American and i refuse to put myself in hock up to the eyeballs, so i will continue to DIY using Bafang or whoever motors for the price of just one of those batteries. On a positive note, Brilliant review of the highlights of Eurobike 2018, and good luck with your channel, the best E-MTB network on YouTube.

Full marks, very good reporting/summary and excellent diction...

[Thumpermad]

Thanks mate you put things in such a good way your passion for the sport comes through with every word. Thanks for sharing. Regards Tony

Instead of the prices coming down, they‘re getting higher year by year. Wtf?

[RogerWatson]

Haibike looks stunning and next gen. 120NM seems crazy on a bike, you'll be hitting top speed in the blink of an eye. I've seen the Fazua used on another brand, it only adds 1.3kg penalty to the weight and you can ride the bike and leave the battery/motor at home as you can purchase a separate cover. So much impressive kit out there.

Steve, you get all the great gigs! Logical progression I guess from what we currently own with components getting smaller and lighter but for us mere mortals, it's now generating into that iPhone syndrome where you commit to spending a considerable amount of money on an ebike and in ever decreasing time periods it has been upgraded or superseded. Cost effective upgrades using these latest innovations to existing hardware on current bikes seems just as if not more important 😎

I'm a huge Star Trek fan and cannot get over how much you look like Brent Spinner or Data. Very Cool. Love your videos!

[kennethmartinsson]

That Lapierre.... 😍😍
Shut up and take my money!!!

[cottaging_womble]

Yes!! Integrated motor and gearbox!! This is surely the future. Otherwise, lets have motors that can generate so much torque that gears are unnecessary, but please, no more cassettes and derailleurs.

I love e bikes because avoid to traffic❤️

[holyfox]

I’m totally happy with my Haibike Bosch Performance CX. Batterie powered Bikes are the future in big cities.👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻🙌🏻

[TheShmooty]

The Fazua route seems the most interesting as you could easily carry a spare battery in back pack at that weight for longer trips. But for shorter ones with laps just swap at car.

[naoyukisasanami]

What about regenerative brake equipment for e-bikes?:)

[bretleversha]

Great video. Love the show. Some exciting progress being made for EMTBs.
