Urtopia (China) - Press Release: Why name it the Chord?

Inspired by the physical appearance of a piano keyboard and the spirit of musical harmony, Chord is Urtopia’s endeavor to impart a sense of grace, poise, and sophistication to every passerby. Continuing the legacy of Carbon One, we persist with “design is soul” and never tolerate a cheap imitation. 

How the Chord blends in your life?

Chord’s girths for the design that few people will see it as an e-bike. Extra-slim design helps a Chord rider arrive gracefully, now everywhere in a city and for every daily occasion. 

All the power you need:

Enjoy a no-sweat ride to work, even when hill climbing. Downtown, around town, for leisurely fun or weekend warrior exercise, this practical e-bike does it all with ease.

All utilization in one:

A unified design extends the symbolism of tree branch growth, accentuating the idea of coexistence of nature and technology. Urtopia stays functional, fun and always stylish.

Top tube battery installation:

Removable batteries offer all the flexibility a rider could want. Unfortunately, by being obvious and huge on the down tube, they ruin the beauty. Refusing to sacrifice aesthetics, convenience, and safety, the Chord presents a revolutionary top tube battery installation. No worrying about waterlogged battery chambers and bending over to retrieve batteries. Most importantly, it's hard to tell it's an e-bike.
