About Lvneng Umi Elektrisk sykkel

Umi er en elektrisk sykkel designet for unge syklister og utviklet rundt idéen om miljøvennlig reise. Designet kombinerer en retrostil med moderne elementer. Den runde frontlykten har form som bokstaven O, en referanse til en racerbane. Umi bruker et dobbeltmodus kjøresystem, slik at syklisten kan bytte mellom en sportsmodus og en rekkeviddemodus. Motstående sylinderskivebremser på forhjulet reduserer bremselengden med 30 prosent for økt sikkerhet. Kontaktløs start via NFC og Bluetooth støttes også.

Production Technology
Made of degradable thickened PPE, the vehicle shell applies Japanese Kaxiu baking paint and PU coating to its surface for higher color saturation, which weathers the 720-hour salt spray test. The frame made of 16Mn carbon steel conquers road driving and mildly violent driving for its outstanding rigidity and toughness. Welded by double robots, the frame with firm and regular welding points enjoys longer service life, further assuring consumers of the quality.
Design Challenge
Equipped With the original SCE Wisdom&cool Double-mode driving system, users can switch between "sports" and "mileage" at low power consumption and high speed. Umi shows higher requirements in security. The front wheel is equipped with double piston disc brakes with opposite cylinders, thus shortening braking distance by 30-percent; With low rolling resistance energy-saving tires, strong grip is achieved in extreme environment, and high-speed stability and long-distance endurance are improved.
Research
Through in-depth market research, the design team found that in the Z era, young people used electric bicycles as a means of transportation for urban and short-distance travel, which had two completely different demands for electric vehicles: high endurance and high speed. With the innovative dual-mode control system, Umi perfectly achieved a balance between power consumption and speed.
Inspiration
Umi is based on the trend of revivalism and is integrated with modern elements. The headlamp adopts "O" shape design which is the symbol of the track. The brand calls on people to do exercise and pursue enthusiasm. Such design can better arouse people's desire for driving the bicycle.
Project Duration
The project was launched in Changzhou, China, in June 2021, brought to market in March 2022.
Operation Flow
Umi supports NFC non-contact and Bluetooth start. The user can start it via Bluetooth and NFC. It has intelligent operation functions, including remote saddle opening, one-key backing and automatic parking. It can be interconnected with app to automatically feedback the self-inspection information of vehicles and bring easy interactive experience to users. The intelligent light sensing technology adjusts the light intensity automatically according to the ambient light to protect night travel.
