The Sanyo Eneloop is a pedal-assist only electric with a barely noticeable 250 watt (European power limit) motor designed to help the rider's pedal effort. Its step-through frame, large tires and wide brown seat give it a retro look and feel.
Sanyo Eneloop bicycle features:
- Two modes of pedal-assist plus Auto mode
- Regenerative braking
- Three-speed internal hub gears
- Durable rear rack and fenders included
The "Standard" pedal assist mode is a 1:1 ratio of electric power to human power: the energy put into pedaling is matched exactly by the motor. In "Power Up" mode, the motor will double this energy in a 2:1 ratio. Use this mode for hills. The Eneloop will switch between these two modes in "Auto" mode, as it senses increased incline.
Sanyo named the Eneloop because the regenerative braking charges the battery a little in an "energy loop" while you ride! You pull on the rear brake lever while riding downhill (over 5 mph) and you'll start to recharge the battery. This is a unique feature on the Sanyo Eneloop electric bike that can extend the length of your trip a bit! it's a fully integrated first generation smart-bike. We hope it paves the wave to future innovation.
Let's make a deal!
