'FLYER Bikes,' the Huttwill, Switzerland-based electric bicycle manufacturer, launched its latest flagship mountain bike, the FLYER Uproc X 9.5. When creating the Uproc X 9 series of bicycles, FLYER sought to optimize the geometry of the bike to ensure safety and stability for the rider even in off-road circumstances. FLYER stated that its finalized geometric design for the bike places the rider in the best possible position when riding uphill or downhill for smooth mountain rides.
The Uproc X 9.5 is the highest-performing bike in the series. With a maximum motor-assisted speed of 25 km/h and an uphill pushing aid of up to 6 km/h, this bike is excellent for mountaineering. The bike comes with a powerful 750 Wh battery that allows it to achieve a stellar range that will greatly fluctuate based on the conditions the bike is being ridden through.
The Upcroc X 9.5 is available now online at FLYER Bikes' website at an MSRP of €10,249.
