E-Bike Tech From Eurobike 2017

Clock00:00, Thursday 7th September 2017

If there was one single outstanding theme from this year's Eurobike Exhibition, it was the rise of the E-bike. From city cargo bikes to almost undecipherable road bikes, there's been an explosion of new models for every rider.

PET - Performing Enhancing Technology - in the form of electronic assist has officially landed at Eurobike. Dan checks out the offerings.

Here are just a few of the electronic bikes coming onto the market;

Focus Project Y; with the battery in the downtube, it weighs in at 12.5kg including the 4.5kg battery. Fancy an extra 400W power, up to 25kph?

PG Bugatti - lightest E-bike available? At only 8.4kg it's very light, but at €65,000 up to €130000, it's not for everyone...

Maserati prototypes are nearly available, priced at €9999 and weighing 11kg.

Orbea have produced electric bikes that really don't look like them - the Gain comes in road, gravel and city designs. Ideal for help on climbs or older riders with an extra 200W power, controlled with a single button?

Bianchi - New Eroad Impulso, with Italian motors too! A max range of 200km.

Stromer have yet to release the ST5, complete with custom Pirelli tyres.

Continental have used their motor expertise to move into the E-bike market too.

The Tern GSD - Get Stuff Done - Cargo Bike was designed for the city dweller in mind. Handy range of 250km!

Danish company Mate now producing folding E-bikes with easy USB charging.
