Review

The Mahle X35 motor is hidden in the rear wheel and the 250 Wh battery inside the frame: at first glance it looks like a gravel bike without a motor.

With 40 Nm, it helps on climbs and into the wind without changing how pedalling feels. SRAM Apex 12-speed drivetrain.

Pros

  • Almost invisible: looks like a regular bike
  • SRAM Apex 1×12
  • Up to 100 km
