FEATURES
Sporty, Fit and Capable
The eScout's lightweight but sturdy aluminum alloy frame offers a sporty ride with loads of utility. Designed for your daily commute or running errands, it can easily carry cargo, groceries or a child in a baby seat. It’s front tray compatible for extra load and rolls fast and effortless on its large Schwalbe Super Moto X 27.5”x 2.4” tires. The fully enclosed chain guard keeps you clean and the Abus frame lock uses the same key as the battery.
High-Performance LED Lights
The centerpiece of our ergonomic cockpit is the extra bright German Supernova Mini 2 Head light. Its revolutionary thermal core technology keeps the LED at a low temperature and ensures consistent light intensity at the highest level. This 75g CNC-machined aluminum alloy light is fully integrated and powered by the Bosch System, and can be easily controlled by the Bosch Purion on-board computer with a push of your thumb.
More Cargo and 250° Visibility
Our oversized aluminum rear rack holds 30kg/70lbs of cargo and is compatible with most aftermarket pannier bags and baby seats. For maximum visibility, we integrated the high-performance Supernova E3 Tail Light. Its Twin Beam technology offers an extremely bright power beam toward the back, as well as a wide 250° side beam angle. This aluminum alloy LED light weighs next to nothing and is 100% waterproof.
Motor Drive System
The Bosch Performance Line Drive System offers a sporty and dynamic ride with a maximum assist speed of 20mph (Europe 25km/h). The finely balanced 250 watt system with 63Nm torque provides full support even at low cadence. This ensures a powerful riding behavior, especially when starting or climbing hills, even while carrying extra cargo.
Control Display
The Bosch Purion is the minimalist on-board computer that lets you choose between five different riding modes, displays your speed, charging status, range, trip distance and total distance. Plus, it allows you to control the integrated Supernova lights with a push of your thumb, so both hands remain safely on the handlebar.
Lithium-Ion Battery
The Bosch PowerPack 400 watt hour battery is an efficient energy provider with staying power. It combines impressive mileage, a long lifetime and low weight. Easy to install or remove, it can be charged quickly irrespective of the charge level. It will power a range of 25-75miles (40-120km) depending on the mode and terrain.
