Electric Bike ECONO Apes CITY EER4 2026
The perfect city electric bike with a reliable motor, smart color display, and geometry for maximum comfort.

Who is the ECONO Apes CITY electric bike best for?
The ECONO Apes CITY model is thoughtfully designed for comfortable city riding and relaxed exploration of nearby trails. Thanks to its specific "Low-step" (unisex) frame design without a high top tube and 26 or 28-inch wheels, it offers exceptional stability, safe stopping, and predictable handling.
It's the absolute perfect choice for less experienced or more cautious cyclists, as well as those who want complete control in unpredictable city traffic. The upright seating position ensures you arrive at your destination relaxed, and the bike will be your favorite companion for daily errands and commuting.

How does the ECONO Apes CITY differ from the SUV model?
If you're hesitating between the two versions, the key differences are in purpose and drive technology:
Motor and sensors: The CITY model uses a Bafang H305 motor and a speed sensor. This combination provides exceptionally smooth and effortless assistance, ideal for city cruising. The SUV model, on the other hand, is powered by a more powerful Bafang H405B motor with a torque sensor. This measures pedal pressure and dynamically adjusts power, which is noticeable when overcoming steep inclines and more challenging terrains.
Equipment and posture: The CITY version offers complete urban comfort with smooth tires, an adjustable stem, and an upright, relaxed cycling posture. The SUV version, on the other hand, encourages a more active posture and has tires with a coarse tread that are ready for "off-road" adventures and varied surfaces.

Reliable Bafang drive with optimal torque
Hidden in the rear hub is the proven and durable Bafang H305 motor with a voltage of 36 V and a nominal power of 250 W. The bike assists you when pedaling up to the legally permitted speed of 25 km/h (limited).
With 50 Nm of torque and a rotation sensor (speed sensor), the motor provides exceptionally responsive starts at traffic lights and quiet operation. Because the assistance system operates based on rotation and not pressure (as with the SUV version), riding will always be smooth and won't require excessive effort – you just pedal, and the bike does most of the work.

Smart and interchangeable battery tailored to your needs
Power is supplied by a reliable Comtron ELK smart battery, developed and assembled in-house. A great advantage of the system is the complete interchangeability of batteries within the series. You can choose from three capacities, according to your actual range needs:
Available are 520 Wh (15 Ah) , 700 Wh (20 Ah) , and the largest 800 Wh (23 Ah) . The battery is elegantly integrated into the downtube of the frame but can be locked and quickly removed for charging indoors. Standard 2A charger included with every battery capacity. A 4A fast charger can be purchased separately.

Compact color display with Bluetooth connectivity
All key data will be monitored on the extremely readable, color LCD display Bafang DP C080. This intuitive interface allows you to easily choose between five levels of assistance: ECO (Green), TOUR (Blue), SPORT (Indigo), SPORT+ (Orange), and BOOST (Violet).
The display is technologically advanced; built-in Bluetooth technology allows wireless connection to the Bafang Go App (for Android and iOS). Via your mobile phone, you can monitor diagnostics, cell voltage status (SOC), calories burned, and even activate walk assist up to 2.5 km/h.

Comfort and smoothness: Suspension and city tires
City streets and bike paths are not always perfect, so the ECONO Apes CITY is equipped with front suspension forks SR Suntour NEX-E25 Coil 26'', offering 75 mm of travel for comfortable shock absorption when riding over manholes or cobblestones.
Contact with the ground is maintained by tires with a smooth, city-optimized profile: Schwalbe DELTA CRUISER PLUS (26x2.0 / 50-559). They feature PunctureGuard (50 EPI) protection and a reinforced TwinSkin sidewall profile, which drastically reduces the chance of a puncture. They are built on strong 13G spokes (36 holes) and robust REVO D rims.

Hydraulic brakes and precise Shimano derailleur
Safety in traffic is paramount. Reliable stopping, even with a loaded bike, is ensured by 2-piston hydraulic disc brakes Tektro HD-M280 in combination with large brake rotors with a diameter of 180 mm front and 160 mm rear.
Power transfer is managed by the proven 9-speed Shimano system. The rear derailleur Shimano Altus RD-M2000 SGS and cassette Shimano Acera CS-HG201 (11-36T) offer flexibility. Even in the city, you will always find the right pedaling cadence on every small incline thanks to the ideal gear range.

Premium ergonomic and urban equipment
The ECONO Apes CITY excels in details that simplify everyday life. A (0°-90°) adjustable stem with a really wide, swept-back handlebar (width: 680 mm, sweep: 37°) and ergonomic Velo VLG-1505 grips ensure a perfect, spine-friendly posture. You will sit on an exceptionally comfortable Velo VL-6574 saddle.
At the rear, a durable aluminum luggage rack ECONO 29’’ Boost with MIK system ("Click and go") awaits for lightning-fast attachment of baskets or bags. For visibility and protection, there's a powerful Satelite C19 LED light (DC 8V-58V), a rear light ECONO WD216, and wide PVC fenders that will save you from puddles.
