Next-level innovation: Introducing the new SIMPLON bikes for 2024

Trailblazing carbon frames and revolutionary e-drives – discover the new SIMPLON bike models for the 2024 season!

SIMPLON – a pioneering brand for more than 60 years

Innovation and forward-looking technologies are as much part of SIMPLON’s DNA as the chain on a traditional bicycle. For over 60 years, we have built upon this foundation, achieving remarkable success. When we introduced the first “Vision” carbon bike in 1994, SIMPLON emerged as a true pioneer brand. In the 2024 model year, we are once again raising the bar and setting new standards.

Carbon frame manufactured in Europe

For the first time, the carbon frame for the new PAVO IV is being manufactured in Europe again. This brings numerous advantages, including state-of-the-art manufacturing processes, unparalleled quality, and secure, efficient supply chains. The outcome? A seamless blend of lightweight construction and exceptional aerodynamics. In addition, the new Silkcarbon TQ Uni boasts one of the lightest carbon e-bike frames on the market.

New e-power by Pinion

SIMPLON has always been at the forefront of e-bike innovation. We boldly introduced our first electric bike back in 2011, long before it became a prevailing trend. Now, brace yourself for the revolutionary RAPCON PMAX PINION and the KAGU PINION, which redefine the e-bike landscape once again. For the very first time, the motor and electronic gearbox seamlessly merge into a single compact unit. With the addition of a belt drive, these groundbreaking models establish new benchmarks in weight distribution, range, and maintenance.

The lightweight aero racer – PAVO IV

The new PAVO IV marks an unprecedented fusion of lightweight construction and aerodynamics. Its state-of-the-art autoclave production in Europe allows carbon frames of the highest quality: extremely light and safe at the same time. All frame tubes have been aerodynamically optimised through flow simulations. The PAVO IV combines the best of both worlds and offers an enormously wide range of uses: uphill, it’s light – on the flat, it’s accelerated by low air resistance.
