Fat tyres and strong rims equal better ride
to ensure your maximum ride comfort, we have installed a very good RST suspension fork and puncture resist Kenda Kevlar tyres.
These tyres are wider than the norm, offering better grip and feel much better on road irregularities than the more popular 1.95in tyres.
The rims are also very strong, double wall aluminium construction with 36 spokes 6061-T6 alloy anodized.
Long range, long life battery
The Rio MTB comes with a 13AH or 17AH Lithium ion battery. It is rechargeable around 800 to 1000 times and will last around 4 years if you use the bike regularly.
A new spare battery costs £299 for 13AH, £399 for 17AH including delivery.
If you run on motor alone, you will need between 10WH to 12WH on flat roads, depending on your weight, speed, clothings and headwind.
If you pedal along, even a little, you will extend the range.
Going uphill consumes more.
Perfect bike for everyday riding
In creating the Rio MTB, we are looking for best practical solutions to most common requirements for a good electric bike.
Comfort, hill climbing, range, riding position, ease of maintenance and throttle control, all have been all taken of.
The result is a truly effective transport, comfortable and responsive bike for daily use.
