Who is the Simply.Lift EP6 suitable for?

Für wen ist das Simply.Lift EP6 geeignet?

The Simply.Lift EP6 rides like a familiar city bike. The Shimano EP6 drivetrain provides natural assistance, keeping the bike agile and maneuverable. It's suitable for family rides and solo trips without the hassle of searching for a parking space. It weighs approximately 28 kg, has a range of up to 150 km, and can carry up to 150 kg.

Who benefits most?

Families appreciate the flexible luggage rack for child setups, from a child seat to a handrail. A trailer is available. A hitch can be installed free of charge upon request. This allows the bike to grow with your daily life, from a day-to-day commute to a weekend at the park.

Commuters and everyday riders appreciate the relaxed handling. The EP6 delivers powerful 85 Nm of assist, the four-piston brakes grip reliably, and the 80 mm suspension fork smooths cobblestones. This leaves your mind free for the traffic and not for wondering whether the climb will hurt today.

Size, seating position and feeling in the saddle

In the configurator, you can choose the ergonomics to suit your height: up to 170 cm, you'll sit more upright, and from 170 cm upwards, you'll have a more sporty ride. The result is familiar and intuitive, almost like your current city bike, but with an extra boost.

Compact in everyday life

The EP6 is 195 cm long, making it as practical for use in parks and hallways as a regular bicycle. This helps when parking in front of the daycare center or in the bike cellar. Combined with its low system weight, the bike feels controlled and predictable, even with a load.
