Hi there, I heard a rumour that an enduro Amflow emtb will be presented in December. It’s supposed to be a new frame, not just the current Amflow with beefed-up specs.

Have any of you heard about this?

I'm a naive dreamer, buit if Amflow has to deliver an enduro Ebike, i really hope it will be with another kinematics ... AND a LOT of travel !

I love the lightness of the PL Carbon Pro. Even just the Fox Podium in 170mm, adds nearly a kilogram to the bike. I think that for the majority, the PL Carbon is the sweet spot.

That said. There is definitely a market for a heavier Enduro Amflow. It should also quieten all the "It's not an Enduro" naysayers.

Excited to see it. But unless it's the same weight as the PL Carbon Pro. It's not for me.
 
I seriously doubt this will happen, DJI started Amflow as a tool to get into the market. Amflow will either be sold off or shut down once enough bike companies pickup their motor system. I was at my LBS when the rep made his sales pitch. When the shop owner pressed for more bike types in the line, the rep was very clear there were none. 2 models, 4 sizes, 2 colors, that’s it. The whole sales pitch was more like an internet based company. The support logistics was not very reassuring. Mind you, the shop is a former Orbea dealer. In the states, all customer service issues went through Spain, customer service issues were not handled very quickly. So the shop dropped them, the owner was getting the same vibe from Amflow….

Yeah this.

Amflow is a marketing tool for Avinox, they saturated the market and the YouTube "influencer" world with them
 
I think that after impressing with its motor system, AM Flow now needs to evolve in terms of kinematics and geometry as well, to make a real leap forward on that front. The fact that a brand like Unno was among the first to adopt this system makes me suspect that there’s more than just a simple motor supply agreement between the two companies. César Rojo, in addition to his own brand Unno, also leads the engineering firm that designs MTB frames as well as motorcycle parts, etc. So I’m guessing that the next AM Flow enduro bike might be the brainchild of César’s expertise… or at least I hope so.
 
So many experts on Amflow's business prowess ........ :ROFLMAO:

If Amflow is making money, hand over fist, selling it's trail bikes. Maybe those running Amflow will make the best executive decision to keep that money flowing ?

We already know that Avinox has split branding off the DJI parent group. And Amflow has also split branding off DJI. So what business decisions will be made with Amflow, will be the ones that will generate the most profit. If that is growing the bike range. Then they'll do that. But if everyone just keeps buying the PL Carbon. Then they'll just keep making the PL Carbon, till demand slows down.

Amflow PL First Look: All-New All-Mountain eMTB Powered by DJI's Avinox eBike-drive

DJI shook up ebike markets w/ all-new lightweight motor & this Amflow PL Carbon is the first eMTB that will feature the powerful drive system!
bikerumor.com bikerumor.com

"So yes, the bike products of Amflow began as a platform to test and showcase the DJI Avinox system within a customized and seamlessly matching design. But then, they quickly split off Amflow to develop bikes on their own. And going forward, Amflow is slated to grow increasingly independent in all business aspects, from product development to day-to-day operations.

So now the ebikes are designed by Amflow separate from DJI, with material and manufacturing support from existing specialists in the bike industry – think geometry & kinematics optimization and shock tuning. And Amflow make the PL Carbon frame in Asia, in cooperation with experienced carbon and bicycle manufacturers."

Yes, my understanding is that Amflow is now a separate company (still owned by DJI) that is free to design and sell bikes.

I expect they will continue to design and sell bikes.

Looking at this frame with attention, it doesn't look like an enduro bike, but rather just an evolution of the current AM Flow

Could be. Based on the pic they have moved away from the 185mm length trunnion shock. So I guess it will be either 210mm or 230mm now.

The teaser/leak situation is really starting to heat up, thanks for posting this! So if they're keeping the current Carbon/Carbon Pro terminology from the 2025 bikes, we are still looking at 2 levels with a sort of base level and then a high end one.

But the big news is there is a PR and a PX models. I am going to guess that th PR might be a shorter travel version and the PX might be the longer travel version, but I'm not able to determine much from the pics, as they seem like either both models share the same front triangle, or those are just placeholder pics and are not representitive of the finished product. Did you get any more pages along with what you pasted here, such as some spec sheets or geometry tables?
