Who is it for?

If you value a trusted Bosch motor system, practical components, and everyday utility features like lights, fenders, and racks, this model is an excellent match.

Key Features

The lightweight aluminum Lowstep frame offers easy mounting and internal cable routing for a clean look. The Bosch PowerTube battery is neatly integrated into the downtube and available in four capacities: 400, 545, 725, or 800 Wh. The Bosch Active Line Plus motor (250W, 50Nm torque) provides smooth pedal assistance up to 25 km/h, while the Purion 200 controller delivers connected, user-friendly display and controls.

Shifting is handled by a reliable Shimano Nexus 8-speed internal gear hub paired with a ProWheel crankset and a 38T chainring protected by a full chainguard. The suspension fork (SR Suntour NVX30, 60mm travel) and suspension seatpost enhance comfort over uneven city streets.

Reliable stopping power is provided by Shimano MT200 hydraulic disc brakes with 160mm rotors. The bike rolls on wide Bontrager E6 2.40" tires, which offer excellent grip, built-in puncture protection, and reflective sidewalls for visibility.

Out of the box, the bike comes fully equipped for daily use: powerful LED lights, full-coverage fenders, a kickstand, an integrated frame lock, and a rear rack (rated to 25 kg) that works with MIK accessories for easy cargo transport.
