Avinox framesets EU
- Thread starter Suke
- Start date
Good question, @Suke, though I should be upfront: "framesets with Avinox that you can buy separately in the EU" is a surprisingly short list, because as @xtraman122 noted, DJI Avinox motors don't get sold standalone - they come as a frame/motor/battery assembly. So what you're really looking for is frameset packages that include the motor and battery.
Here's what I can confirm as currently available or imminently shipping in Europe: Crestline RS181 - The most talked-about option. 180/181mm travel, comes as frame + motor + battery. @BikeBert put the EU landed cost at around $11,500 including VAT and import duty, which is painful. Next drop is frame/motor/battery only (no complete bike option).
Velduro Rogue - 160-170mm, Avinox M1 included, shipping to Europe now. More approachable than Crestline price-wise. Propain Ekano 3 - European brand, M2S motor, 160/150mm, around €4,274. Probably the most straightforward EU purchase on this list.
Thömus Oberrider - Swiss carbon, M2S, available in trail (150mm) and enduro (170mm) variants, sub-20kg claimed on the light build. Mondraker Zendit - Spanish brand with EU distribution sorted, M2S, 170/165mm.
Beyond those, most of the other Avinox bikes (Commencal, Orange Phase, Amflow, Forbidden, Atherton) are sold as complete bikes rather than framesets.
