E-BIKE UPGRADE FOR PINION X SCHINDELHAUER BIKES
Our long-standing partner Schindelhauer from Berlin is launching five new models with the Mahle X20 system. Specifically, this means that the Arthur, Antonia, Emil and Emilia models have been given an e-bike upgrade. All models are equipped with either a Pinion C1.6 or C1.9 classic gearbox, work perfectly with the Mahle X20 system and, thanks to the 55 Nm torque drive, get their riders to their destination quickly and comfortably.
URWAHN PRESENTS NEW URBAN AND GRAVEL E-BIKES WITH PINION SMART.SHIFT
Urwahn Bikes is setting new standards in the e-bike sector with its new Urban and Gravel series. The STADTFUCHS and WALDWIESEL models are now even lighter, faster and smarter thanks to innovative 3D printing technology and high-tech drives, namely our Pinion Smart.Shift gearbox (either C1.9i or C1.12i). In combination with the powerful Mahle X20 rear hub motor, the gearbox ensures outstanding performance.
