Ridley E-Noah
Well this is a surprise. Who would have thought that E-Aero was even a thing? Especially in the UK when e-bikes are limited to 15.5mph - a metric where aero isn't even worth considering - see Myth of Aero Journal
But wait. The E-Noah Fast weighs less than 11kg and retains all the aero benefits of the Noah brand. TQ HPR40 motor gives an output of 200 watts in total silence and anonymity. The TQ app is where you program your assistance calibrations. This is is a bike you can easily ride at 35kmh without the motor and have it click-in on the climbs. It is pure genius. For folk who are used to riding fast or long or both, and don't want to stop! Now they (we) don't have to.
