FOR ALL THOSE WHO VALUE A NATURAL DRIVING EXPERIENCE

The SILK 365 :eLIGHT has been designed to save a lot of weight. The carbon frame ensures efficient power transfer and also high sitting comfort. The fork is made of carbon as well and ensures low overall weight and optimum stiffness. The flyweight can be carried effortlessly over obstacles – which is particularly advantageous for stairs or pasture fences.

An insider tip in terms of comfort is the optional adjustable seat post. It allows riders to get on and off the bike easily, for instance, at traffic lights. And thanks to optional studded tyres, the trekking bike also cuts a fine figure in off-road terrain.

If you opt for a gear hub, we install a rust-free and maintenance-free carbon belt instead of a classic bicycle chain.

Smart Headset

All cables run from the handlebar through the headset into the frame interior and provide a tidy look. The shorter cables also save weight and don't come into the enclosure in front of the handlebars.

TQ MOTORS: NATURAL RIDING FEEL THAT IS ALMOST INVISIBLE

Do you love the natural feel of a bike, but would like a little assistance when pedalling? Then the TQ motor is the right choice! You have to be as quiet as a mouse to hear the motort when cycling to work. The drive unit is barely visible, as all the components are beautifully integrated into the bike. The current battery status, riding mode and range are visible on the LED display integrated into the top tube. You will only feel the slight energy kick of the HPR50 "made in Germany" drive unit when riding.

You can find out more about the TQ motor and other e-bike motor systems we use in this magazine article.
