If you thought electric bikes were only for short commutes, the Mihogo Air will change your perspective. This new electric bike from China, featuring a lightweight frame made of Toray T800 carbon fiber from Japan, is equipped with two batteries that provide an impressive 206 kilometers of range! It's the perfect commuter bike or an adventure companion—it's all up to your choice.
The Mihogo Air electric bike features two 460.8 Wh batteries hidden beneath the frame and inside the seat tube, giving it a total capacity of 921.6 Wh. The EU version is equipped with a 250W hub motor, offering an impressive 206 kilometers of range in low-assist mode. Meanwhile, the US version has a more powerful 750W motor, reducing the range to 195 kilometers, but delivering 85 Newton meters of torque and a top speed of 40 km/h, ensuring an exciting ride. For those prioritizing a lighter design, a single-battery version is also available, weighing 22.5 kg with a range of 103 kilometers.
The Mihogo Air design focuses not only on performance but also on practical details. It features an adjustable suspension fork, capable of handling different types of roads, from urban asphalt to gravel roads in rural areas. The Shimano Altus 7-speed gear system offers flexibility for various terrains. It comes with hydraulic disc brakes and 180mm discs, providing reliable braking power. The 2.4-inch color smart display on the left handlebar is connected to a mobile app, allowing you to view vehicle data, navigation, and digital unlocking functions for added convenience.
In addition, the Mihogo Air comes with LED headlights and daytime running lights for safer nighttime riding. There are also various accessories available, such as a rear rack, front basket, and water bottle holder, which are sure to help with commuting or long rides. The dual-battery version (250W or 750W) is priced starting at $1,199 (around PHP 38,000), while the single-battery version is more affordable at $999 (around PHP 32,000). However, it's important to be cautious about the risks associated with crowdfunding, as this is Mihogo's fourth crowdfunding project. If successful, they plan to start shipping the units by December.
The Mihogo Air is not just a high-performance electric bike, but also an art piece full of design and practicality. Whether you're looking for a bike for commuting, long-distance rides, or simply cycling for fun, it will surely deliver on all fronts perfectly. So, here's the question: Are you ready to get an electric bike with an amazing range for your commutes? Or are you more excited to see its performance on the road after completing their crowdfunding?
