EUNORAU, a value-oriented electric bike maker, is again once more with a brand new mannequin of e-bike. The new EUNORAU D6 would possibly the model’s lightest mannequin but, taking the type of one thing between a road bike and a gravel bike.
The 18 kg (39.7 lbs.) EUNORAU D6 electric bike is kind of light-weight, at the least by e-bike requirements.
And with a promotional introductory worth of $1,199, it’s one of many most cost-effective electric gravel or road e-bikes we’ve seen but, barely edging out the Ride1Up Roadster V2 gravel version.
But regardless of the low weight, the D6 nonetheless manages to return loaded with some very good elements, like a 250 mid-drive motor function a torque sensor. The actual energy of that motor could also be greater, however the bike is offered internationally and thus these motors are usually listed at “250 watts” to satisfy strict European energy limitation.
The 60Nm ranking of the motor is a greater gauge of true efficiency since torque figures will not be regulated. At 60Nm, it has greater than common efficiency in comparison with most different electric road bikes.
The drive system makes use of each a torque sensor and a cadence sensor that measures wheel pace 104 occasions per rotation. Most cadence sensors in e-bikes measure pedal pace simply 12 occasions per rotation. The higher-precision cadence sensor mixed with the torque sensor ought to present rather more intuitive and responsive motor utility in comparison with most low-cost electric bikes.
The detachable battery is rated for 360Wh of capability and sits down contained in the downtube, making for a glossy but detachable pack.
EUNORAU claims a variety of 50-75 km (31-47 miles), which is actually cheap within the decrease energy settings.
Since there’s no throttle on this mannequin, it is going to be arduous to drag an excessive amount of energy out of that reasonably sized battery without delay.
That responsive pedal help will probably be loads for many riders, as all these e-bikes are extra frequent amongst cyclists-turned-e-bikers. The electric help will be helpful for pushing out on longer train rides or simply giving just a little additional assistance on steep hills, with the rider nonetheless doing the brunt of the pedaling himself or herself.
The US model will attain 20 mph (32 km/h), whereas the European model of the bike shall be restricted to only 15.5 mph (25 km/h) to adjust to native rules.
Both fashions can in fact be pedaled sooner, however you’ll be by yourself at greater speeds with none additional motor help.
The EUNORAU D6 is rated for a max load of 150 kg (330 lb) and comes with hydraulic disc brakes, a alternative of a Shimano 9 or 11 pace drivetrain, flat or drop bars, 700x28C road tires, a coloration LCD display, and a smartphone app for trip information.
