VILLENEUVE D'ASCQ, France - Decathlon has a long history of involvement in the bicycle sector. The firm has up to now concentrated on creating mid-range bicycles and e-bikes. Before now. By releasing its B'Twin Magic Bike, a futuristic concept e-bike, the French shop has now demonstrated its capacity to develop unique cycling items.
Since it won't be sold,
like many concept motorcycles, the Magic Bike has no price or release date. But
it does provide a glimpse into how Decathlon perceives the evolution of its
e-bikes in the future.
"Our goal is to
get as many individuals on bikes or scooters as we can, assisting them in
making the transition to soft mobility. We create, discover, and put into
practice innovative ways to better suit their requirements, focusing notably on
electric assistance to make these procedures even more accessible. We chose to
design this concept bike to represent these answers," the French
retail behemoth reveals.
A Fantastic Tool For Bikers In Cities
Wide tubes and an open frame are used in the
construction of the B'Twin Magic Bike. Regarding the motor and driving
mechanism, Decathlon provided no details. They merely stated that they chose a
belt transmission because it is easy to maintain and has an automated gearbox
since it is handy. Given that the e-bike is designed for urban use, this option
seems ideal.
Decathlon has unveiled a pretty intriguing concept
to power the Magic Bike. A range of 30, 60, or 90 km may be achieved by adding
up to three battery packs. It appears that Decathlon is presenting a system
that enables changing damaged components or transporting extra power when
necessary. The frame incorporates the battery charger as well.
One Braking Lever Alone
The curved handlebar is another outstanding feature.
It has two indicators at each end and an integrated broad strip of LEDs for the
front light. The handlebar incorporates the display. The Magic Bike is
completely networked and can be synced with a smartphone, according to
Decathlon. The e-bike may be locked with an alarm using the central kickstand
as well.
There is only one brake lever on the B'Twin Magic
Bike. This lever is directly controlling the two disc brakes, which send 40% of
the braking power to the back and 60% to the front.
