Lightweight Urbanite eBikes

Clean the Sky - Positive Eco Trends & Breakthroughs

The Volt Lite Has a Folding Design and Weighs in at 37.5-Pounds

— January 3, 2024 — Eco
The Volt Lite electric bike has been shown off by the London-based brand as a lightweight take on eBike design that's ready to deliver impressive capabilities when on and off the road.

The bike is equipped with a low-maintenance carbon belt and rated to deliver up to 60-miles of range per charge, depending on the battery. The bike weighs as little as 37.5-pounds to give it a lightweight profile that's far better than other options on the market and is thanks to the hinged aluminum frame that stays in shape with magnets during riding.

The Volt Lite electric bike is powered by a Bafang M820 mid-drive motor that will deliver 55.3lb-ft of torque along with pedal-assist riding that uses responsive torque sensing. Priced starting at £2,899, the bike isn't available yet for purchase.
