MUY BUENO. Looks pretty nice to me. BB drives are the future for sure. But the riders do need to know how to shift em for them to last. That's the problem with chain drives. People ride em up hills in high gear.

This is nearly exactly what I was planning to build, without the BB drive system. Fill the tube with Lipo's and maybe even make the swingarms hold LiPo's. Total thing bolts together, all Aluminum. Side door for battery access.
Controller under the seat.
Anyone could make changes, once they had the basic bike. Add your own forks, wheel sizes. I would just sell the frame and swingarm to fit the 2 speed 93% efficient hubmotor.
Compact design. Easy to ship.
Install your own bars, seat, Pedal shaft, or, include it with the frame. Add Brakes, either rim or disc. Endless mod ability.

Would be interested in a comparison to our old brushed BB Aprilias!

Have you considered a hot-swap battery - very handy!

Can U find something newer?

Sure. But why newer? Because it's brushed like an Agni?
I am genuinely interested in a comparison. Several of us run Aprilias up to 60kph. But fancy a modern drive and swingarm rear...
What is the powerplant - is it one of these Bofeili units?

You really want to get an ES seal of approval, send one to one of us Guru's to test and review. We'll ride it a few thousand miles and give you a really good evaluation of how it compares with other stuff we've ridden.
Nobody's got more ebike experience than us.

What are the volts and amp-hour size of the battery? what is the price, do you have any US dealers signed up yet?

36V 15Ah. There is no US dealer yet. But, we invite serious dealers to review our bike.
EU net price should be 1499 EUR + VAT. US retail price should be in range $1899-$2099.
We are running hard tests on Bike now. On last test Bike took 155 kgs (135 kgs test pilot + 20 kgs utility load) of load over 27 km distance in 59 mins. Total weight exceed 174 kgs (383 pounds). 320m of climb and max. grade 10,1%. We reduced motor power to 450W with reduced battery capacity of 500 Wh.

Yes. It is one of Bofelli motors.
But, we made some improvements on motor to increase durability and static load due EU directive.
There is bunch of models and concepts on e-bike market. We made unique one and we made it global. Very soon.

I like it. But please make it easy to bypass all the eu regulations.

This sounds like a really nice product if that's the case. On our Melbourne group rides I often get comments about my (ok older!) mid drive working back through the bike's gears and how effective it is at climbing hills. Bottom bracket mid drives are great.
It would be cool if you could work a hot swappable battery into a future version...

As we already know Road Traffic Rules and Regulations are not applicable offroad. Nobody can limit your power off the road. so, there will be offroad key.
You can notice that we use additional load at road tests. Our Bofeili motor has 174 kgs (383 pounds) on back to carry. Hehehe
Mid mounted motor is best choice. Try to change flat tire on wheel with motor integration.
Due design there will be no hot swappable battery option but we will put some option of battery rack mounted on top of frame to extend range on longer routes.
I like to mention that Bioplanet Bike, also known as BiBi, has around 19,5 kgs which is great fact if we say that frame is made of high strength steel used in military/automotive industry. Bikes with same battery capacity and frames made of aluminum or carbon are 22-35 kgs.

Why do electric bike companies insisted on putting the battery inside the frame? How can you get it out to repair it? What about replacing it eventually?

This is sounding pretty appealing. What is the maximum amp rating you have run the motor at please? Could make a cool offroad bike for Australian conditions....

Quite simple. It is our company policy. If you want to build from scratch there are thousand models available on market. If our Bike need to be repaired you will get full service at authorized service station.

Hmm, about 600 watts. if it's a common 6 FET like a KU60 controller it could be beefed up a few amps with a bigger shunt. It's a lot less power than the 1100w from the Aprilia, but at least it's not got the losses of a brushed motor. What teeth are you running on the back cluster, and which ratios on front? Top speed on the flat?
A 12FET would be interesting. I've never been inside a Bofeili casing, not sure how much torque/amps they could take for a long period....

About 450W. We put some restrictions to see Bike behaviour on heavy load conditions. Also tires are pure offroad. Extra resistance

The concept is spot on but it don't really like the frame layout, it looks weak. Feels like I could break it rigth away on the first drop offroad.

It is not weak.

Still, the seat tube lacks some triangulation, but this is probably not an issue when you get it down to a pratical offroad heigths.
