September 18, 2018 (Lachine,Quebec) – iGO, a North American leader in electric urban, mountain, utility and now road bicycles is proud to announce a completely new line-up for 2019. Since 2006 iGO has continuously pushed the envelope of design and innovation and continues to do so for the 2019 season with new features like bluetooth connectivity and diagnostics, seamlessly integrated batteries and heightened product serviceability.
The addition of the Performance+ series solidifies iGO’s place as a major player bringing together partners such as Shimano, MPF and Bafang to create some of the industries most stunning and intricate premium offerings.
The 28.8lb Carbon eRoad employs Bafang’s new M800 drivetrain to deliver a seamless and practically unnoticeable road dedicated mid-drive motor system to its stunning lightweight carbon frame. Bafang’s slim heads-up controls and Shimano’s tried-and-true 105 hydraulic drivetrain make for an unmistakably confident, nimble and fun ride.
The Carbon e27.5 matches a full Shimano E-8000 motor-drivetrain to a sleek, fully integrated carbon frame with Fox front and rear suspension that is sure to inspire smiles regardless the level of the rider. Carbon FSA cockpits and wheelsets finish off the premium product and make the iGO e27.5 stand out in a crowd.
The Carbon eFat is designed to go everywhere you dare. With a fully submersible MPF motor, 11-speed SRAM drivetrain and RockShock suspension – the Carbon Fat is the premium “go anywhere” bicycle.
The Performance+ series isn’t the only big news for 2019. iGO is also launching four segments of aluminum e-bikes powered by iGO’s proprietary “iGO DRIVE” hub and mid-drive motors.
Aspire: The perfect road bike for zipping around town with just enough boost on hand – when you need it – to breeze up a hill while keeping your cool. Using torque sensing technology, SHIMANO road-specific compontentry and a low-profile 36v/250w motor, this segment is the perfect companion to any road rider.
Discovery: The Discovery series consists of iGO’s newest designs in road and trail electric bikes powered by their priprietary “iGO Drive” hub or mid-drive motors. Triggered by iGO’s new user-selectible torque or cadence sensing system, this series provides a progression of models that allows an individual to find the perfect fit to suit their preferred riding style.
Outland: There’s a big playground out there – go find it with the new iGO OUTLAND Series! Conquer hills, explore new trails and rediscover the fun of getting lost on one of the dual suspension 27.5, hardtail or fat bikes. As with the DISCOVERY series, this collection is powered by either the “iGO Drive” hub (80nm) or the mid-motor (120nm) systems.
Utility: Whether for commuting, running errands, deliveries or general urban transport – iGO’s UTILITY line has you covered. With a wide array of functional attachments and dual battery technology, iGO’s UTILITY line is the coolest mini-van on two wheels.
“iGO DRIVE” and User-Selectable Torque and Cadence Sensing Technology: All “iGO DRIVE” hub motors are triggered by a user-selectable torque or cadence sensing technology controlled at the display. This allows the rider to tune the motor reactivity to be in line with his riding style regardless of his surroundings. “iGO DRIVE” mid-motors constantly sample relevant information from its integrated torque, cadence and speed sensing technology. This sampling allows for a precise modulation of power output making for a seamless, bike-like, riding experience.
Bluetooth Connectivity: With the upmost customer experience in mind, every member of the four segments comes equipped with bluetooth connectivity and diagnostics providing unparalleled consumer-level serviceability through the iGO mobile app (iOS and Android).
