OVER THE YEARS, WE'VE TESTED MANY E-BIKES, BUT NONE TRULY CAPTIVATED OUR TEAM.
IT TOOK TIME TO DETERMINE THE IDEAL BIKE FOR NS. WE REALIZED THAT BESIDES THE MOTOR, GEOMETRY AND SUSPENSION ARE KEY. WE SOUGHT A GEOMETRY THAT SUITS MOTOR-ASSISTED BIKES, NOT A COPY OF OUR "ANALOG" PRODUCTS. ALL THAT COMPLEMENTED BY SUSPENSION FOR A HEAVIER BIKE, AGGRESSIVE TIRES, POWERFUL BRAKES, AND COCKPIT WITH A "MOTO" FEEL.
WE BELIEVE THAT WITH E-FINE, WE COMPLETED OUR GOALS.
REGARDING THE MOTOR, RELIABILITY AND ACCESSIBLE SERVICE ARE CRUCIAL. WE CHOSE SHIMANO FOR THEIR SHARED VALUES AND EXCELLENT GLOBAL SERVICE. EVERYONE LOVED THE NEW EP8 MOTOR FROM SHIMANO. IT'S LIGHTER, HAS SIGNIFICANTLY REDUCED DRAG, AND OFFERS IMPROVED GROUND CLEARANCE, LOW Q-FACTOR, AND NEW 160MM CRANKS.
OUR TEAM DISLIKES WIMPY RIDES, SO WE DESIGNED THE E-FINE AS A ROBUST MACHINE WITH A FOX PERFORMANCE 38 FORK, POWERFUL BRAKES, AND AGGRESSIVE TIRES. ADJUSTABLE BB HEIGHT ENSURES THAT EVERYONE FINDS THEIR PERFECT RIDING POSITION.
