Nicolai Bikes (Germany) - Press Release: NICOLAI has been building mountain bikes for over 20 years, and for over 10 years electric assisted ‘eMTB’. The question “Who needs that?” or the quote “I am still too fit for that,” is rarely heard today. Why? Because people who are interested in e-bikes quickly learn that riding an eMTB is still sport. The advantages are obvious: differences in fitness between friends are levelled, the range is increased and ultimately, you can have longer riding time and pleasure.

For this year, Nicolai’s eMTB called the EBOXX-2019 is developed and produced precisely for this riding experience. This is a special product because Nicolai is one of the few remaining companies to produce bicycle frames in Germany. In our own factory, all components are CNC-milled from high-quality aircraft aluminium and precisely welded together. The high-quality welding beads have established themselves as a trademark in the industry. A Nicolai bike can therefore also be recognised without a logo. All in all, the bike has unrivalled and incomparable riding performance.

Bosch CX mit Kiox - Effective with Bosch:

Nicolai reflects on a long and close cooperation with the technology company Bosch. Therefore we continue to use the strong Bosch CX motor with specially-tuned mountain bike software in the EBOXX bike. New for 2019 is the KIOX on-board computer with all the functions a real rider needs.

Gates Carbon Drive - Clean. Smooth. Strong:

Forget the days of oil-smeared chains and join the Gates Carbon Drive Revolution. Clean, smooth, robust and light. These are the advantages of the Gates Carbon Drive™ system. The carbon reinforced belts are as stiff as a chain, have a longer life, run dry without lubrication and are virtually maintenance free. With an Ebike, the motor power and human power must be transmitted together to the rear wheel.

Rohloff - Never before has switching been smarter and more comfortable:

The new Rohloff E-14 transmission sets standards for shifting e-bikes – shifting has never been more comfortable. Combined with the Bosch motor, the unique fast shifting performance and easy operation is a pleasure to use. One push on the button, and the drive removes load from the system, and the Rohloff hub switches electrically. Hold down the button and the E-14 shifts all 14 gears in a fast 3-speed sequence. And when the trail forces you to stop , it automatically returns to the starting gear. For 2019, we now have improved the position of the electronic trigger to achieve the best intuitive operation with the thumb.

Suspension - Payload of up to 150 Kg:

The rear end of a mountain bike chassis is not a structural rigid component. It is exposed to extreme loads during off-road driving. That’s why we only use the best suspension components from the US specialist Fox. Typical critical points are also the ball bearings, which ensure low breakaway torque and optimum response in the joints.
