In a galaxy far far away ..

 

[Zimmerframe]

We've arrived ..

10,000km oil change (10 minutes to do)

Smart shifting and also Pre-Select and Start-Select.

Batteries by FIT - 48v. Removable 480/720/960wh options or a 700wh integrated unit. There's also a 468wh range extender.

There's an app which lets you configure most things and decent looking controllers :

Basic Specs :

The Standard version has 600w peaks and the Speed Pedalec version has 800w peaks. If you're buying them, they are sold as different units (501070 from FIT for normal and 501109 for the Speed Pedalec version) though presumably they're the same hardware for ease of manufacturing and it's a firmware setting.

There were initial prices shown via FIT but these have been removed :

Main launch discussion thread :

New Pinion integrated gearbox and motor

Can't believe nobody has mentioned this yet https://m.pinkbike.com/news/first-ride-pinion-e-drive-system.html Looks like a potential game changer to me

S-pedelec is confirmed as same hardware.

Housing is Magnesium.

9 Speed version is envisioned for some Speed Pedelec usages where a larger jump between gears would be beneficial.

The screens on the bikes with the larger separate screens are removable and you can ride with an app instead if you prefer.

Sprocket installation :

Make sure you install the stainless washed over the sprocket :

Before you put on the lockring :

Pinion MGU Lockring is LEFT ! handed thread. So clockwise to REMOVE. Tighten to 40NM.
