Austrian company Vello made waves when it first launched its 'Bike+' folding e-bike back in 2016, with the company clearly having spent much time and energy in evolving and improving that already impressive e-bike as exemplified by the brand new 'Bike+ Gears' e-bike.
The 'Bike+ Gears' is a folding e-bike that holds on to many of the elements that made its predecessor so well-received including the magnetic folding mechanism and the combination of a 173-Wh battery and 250-watt hub motor. However, the 'Bike+ Gears' now features a trio of externally situated gears that work in conjunction with the drive mechanism in order to enable riders to essentially access as many as six gear ranges. These gear options allow riders to tackle everything from flat paved terrain to challenging uphill scenarios.
Introduced at Milan Design Week, the 'Bike+ Gears' folding e-bike will be available for prices starting at close to $3,400.
