Even in the 2019 collection the offer of City e-bike Brinke It is very rich, the flagship of the brand in fact, the category includes numerous models in the catalogue.
The undisputed protagonist is certainly Elysee, already top of the range in its Élysée 2 version, but still more performing in the version Élysée Ages.
Available in the 2019 catalog in the two proposals: Alivio , with manual gearbox and Di2 which instead provides the luxury of the automatic transmission.
The sports journalist Marta Villa of the editorial team of womanlovesport.com he tested it for us; we have them asked to tell us his feelings:
“ It is a very silent eBike, which handles city traffic very well and, thanks to the
Shimano assistance system combined with the electronic groupset allows for effective restarts during the very frequent “stop&go” in the city.”
The comfortable and refined design of Élysée Evo it is in fact combined with cutting-edge technology.
First of all, it is equipped with a new engine Shimano Steps e6100, built around the movement central, which allows you to reach a speed of 25 km/h with a range of up to 150km. Battery Shimano 36V 14Ah (500Wh) it recharges to 100% in just 5 hours, 80% in 2 hours. Easily removable, it is installed on the roof rack, leaving the space necessary to use pocket bags and roof rack baskets or the child seat (guarantees support up to 25 kg).
As Marta points out: “The low step-through makes the bike easy to use and predisposition for the mounting of roof racks also makes it suitable for tourism.”
Furthermore, Brinke e-bikes are equipped with a torque and cadence sensor . The sensor activates the motor based on the pressure that the cyclist exerts on the pedal, making the pedaling very natural and guaranteeing the cyclist the assistance necessary from time to time. Cadence, on the other hand, helps to guarantee a smooth ride
extremely fluid, intervening on the engine's delivery: for example when pedaling
slowly the torque on the pedal is low and the cadence intervenes to keep the engine output constant.
Torque and cadence sensor thus guarantee a personalized and very satisfying experience, ensuring not only maximum comfort but also the true pleasure of pedaling on a Brinke ebike!
Born for the urban context, thanks above all to the maximum comfort guaranteed by the frame, Élysée Evo is not it disdains Sunday walks, as anticipated in fact the components make it particularly also suitable for cycle tourism.
In particular, the general feeling of stability, both on urban and extra-urban routes, also derives from the powerful hydraulic disc brakes Shimano and SCHWALBE Big Ben tires with double-tube rims 700C.
During the test Marta Villa actually experienced that: “la tire knobs causes this
eBike moves well and agile between asphalt and dirt..."
The comfort and pleasure of pedaling on a Brinke ebike are therefore guaranteed!
