Let's take a look at the commuter-focused Kagu first. Offered in both step-through and step-over frame configurations, the Kagu is accessible to both men and women of all sizes. The all-rounder e-bike is suitable for both road and light off-road use, thanks to the use of chunky tires and optional front suspension. The bike features a carbon fiber frame to keep the weight down. The new Pinion E1.
Through the brand's proprietary Fit EBike Control app, advanced settings can be adjusted pertaining to the four ride modes. The rider can select between Eco, Fly, Flow, and Flex ride modes on the fly, with Eco providing maximum range, and Fly designed for fast-paced riding. Meanwhile, Flow and Flex are adaptive riding modes which progressively apply pedal assistance depending on the terrain.
Pricing and availability for the new Simplon bikes equipped with Pinion drive systems have yet to be announced. Although, it's reported that more information on the new models will be made available through Simplon's website come October, 2023.
