Product news: Brose shows Drive C at Taichung Bike Week

2 October 2018 by the editorial office

E-Performance: As part of Bike Week Taichung (Taiwan), from September 26th to 28th, BROSE presented its fifth e-bike drive. The Berliners move with the Drive C in the city bike segment. The harmoniously designed BROSE Drive C e-bike drive should offer balanced support over a wide cadence range.

The Drive C, which has been specially optimized for cycling in an urban environment, should deliver its power smoothly and constantly in the cadence range of 20 to 70 pedal revolutions per minute. Both at low and high cadences, the new drive provides a maximum torque of 50 Newton meters with support of up to 280 percent, promises Brose. In this way, the city biker gets almost three times the power that he actually puts into the pedals. The Brose Drive C e-bike drive should even compensate for irregularities when pedaling and thus achieve balanced handling.



Brose Drive C: High design freedom for shapely city bikes

As with the other aluminum drives in the Brose Drive product family, the Drive C offers the same uniform platform and the same shape. So it can be installed in the frame in any position, 360 degrees around the bottom bracket. This allows manufacturers to focus on the design of the city bike and integrate the Drive C e-bike drive easily and elegantly. With the Drive C, Brose offers the usual 100 percent Brose quality at an interesting price-performance ratio.

Brose Drive C: Only a whisper is quieter

The usual striking feature and therefore also part of the Brose Drive C is the carbon-reinforced drive belt from Gates. This drive belt, which works invisibly in the housing, works so quietly that the driver can hardly hear it, even on quiet side streets. In addition, this keeps the drive vibrations from being transmitted to the pedal. Thanks to the double freewheel, the drive can be decoupled without resistance, so the city bike equipped with Drive C rides like a normal bicycle if the battery is exhausted. Also practical: the pushing aid works up to six kilometers per
Lesson.

Brose Drive C: urban companion without rough edges

Brose wants the hardware, sensors and control of the Drive C to be coordinated in such a way that the Brose drive makes city bikes contemporary companions in the city. With a gentle response and harmonious pedal support, distances from work to the café, from the museum to the shops, from daycare home or to the park should be able to be covered confidently and relaxed.



With the drive for city bikes, Brose is expanding its portfolio with an additional area of ​​application. The Drive product family also includes the sporty Drive S Mag and Drive S Alu for mountain bikes, the Drive TF for S-Pedelecs, which is designed for speeds of up to 45 kilometers per hour, and the efficient and long-distance-oriented Drive T for trekking bikes.
