What makes the MotionDriveᵗᵐ different from other electric bike drivetrain systems?

By combining a mid-drive motor with either a traditional chain or a ground-breaking Gates belt drive, EVELO is able to deliver as much as twice the torque of a typical hub drive with the same power output. The motor is coupled with a factory-sealed, wide-range transmission that allows you to optimize your pedaling cadence with a simple dial. This results in an effortless riding experience on virtually any terrain and a smarter use of the precious battery power.

More than a technology, the MotionDriveᵗᵐ is a philosophy of what an electric bike drivetrain should look like. It is a belief that advanced technology should be easy to use, low maintenance and make riding your bike fun. No more loose chains. No more having to stop to figure out a confusing gearing system. No more unsightly derailleurs to maintain. Push the throttle or twist a dial to get to a comfortable pedaling cadence and enjoy the ride.

“[EVELO] offers something very unique, a mid-drive motor combined with a carbon belt and continuously variable transmission. This is a combination of parts that offer efficiency, shifting at anytime (even standstill), and durability.” – ELECTRICBIKEREVIEW.COM
