Product news: Simplon is revising its portfolio with two new e-bikes - the Simplon Kagu Bosch Uni low entry and the Simplon Kagu Neodrives. Both e-bikes come with different drives. We were able to get a first impression at the Media Days in Serfaus and at the Eurobike.
The Austrian bicycle manufacturer Simplon has revised its portfolio of two of its e-bikes. As usual from Simplon, the new Simplon Kagu Bosch Uni and the Simplon Kagu Neodrives can also be configured to the customer's wishes. The frames of both bikes have been completely redesigned. The battery is now fully integrated in the frame.
Simplon Kagu Bosch University
The 500 Wh battery offers a performance that easily masters all daily requirements. In order to ensure the necessary rigidity of the frame, the Bosch Active Line Plus was integrated into the frame and ensures that it does not twist when you start. For those who want to go on a longer tour, there is the option of mounting a second battery on the luggage rack. The 26-inch balloon tires provide the necessary cushioning and safety. The Kagu Bosch Uni will show approx. 24 kg on the scale.
A lowerable seat post makes it easier to get on and off at traffic lights. The battery has been integrated into the frame and can be easily removed upwards. Four different sizes from XS-L will be available in White Glossy / Black Glossy, Denim Blue Matt / Black Glossy. The basic equipment starts at 3699 euros.
Optionally available:
- Low-maintenance belt drive
- Bottle holder on the down tube with special adapter
- Heavy-duty carrier for heavy luggage
- Double battery on the luggage rack to increase the range
- Suspension fork with steering stop for even more comfort and optional frame protection
Simplon Kagu Neodrives
The Simplon Kagu Neodrives also got a new design. As the name of the Simplon Kagu suggests, a Neodrives motor is installed here. The drive of the Neodrive is in the rear wheel. The battery is fully integrated into the frame and, at 630 Wh, has significantly more range than standard 500 Wh batteries. Due to the permissible total weight of 160 kg, the bike is also the ideal partner for travelers with heavy luggage.
With this model, too, Simplon relies on the 26-inch balloon tires and the lowerable seat post to ensure the best possible comfort and safety. For men there will be the Simplon Kagu Neodrives in sizes S-XL. XS-L for women. The basic equipment of this model starts at 3999 euros and will also weigh approx. 24 kg.
Optionally available:
- heavy duty carrier
- Triple crank possible
- Suspension fork with steering stop
