Production Technology
The eClimber was carefully designed to optimize folding functions of the frame, wheels, and stem while making the electric parts safe protected. Produced in an innovative combination of magnesium and aluminum the electric bike is both light and strong. With its powerful 36V10AH battery and high efficient 40Nm energy saving rear motor, the bike has an excellent start performance with low noise and a smooth motor activating power. Produced under the quality standard EN151942017.
Design Challenge
The challenge of this project was to engineer an electric bike with the focus of the modern design, complete performance, perfect geometry, and high end quality of components. Historically speaking folding bikes have primarily been an object for recreation, and not design or everyday use. This project aims to challenge the status quo by developing a uniquely designed mass market bike that is more than just fun, but also safe to use and affordable compared with other electric bikes on the market.
Research
The project aimed to develop a high end designed and multifunctional electric folding bike. The design and function should align with the dna of JEEP of living life without limits. The objective was to combine a high capacity battery with innovative magnesium and aluminum technology for both frame and wheels, to create a bike not only superior in design but in performance and agility as well. The users of the bike feel free, mobile, and perfectly safe on the two wheel electric bike.
Inspiration
Since 1941, the JEEP brand has been a symbol of freedom and capability. Designed for peak performance in rugged conditions it is created for living life without limits. Enthusiastic and inspired by authenticity JEEP is always ready to meet the world with feet firmly planted on the ground, in the mud, or rising up to reach the highest crest of mountains. This ebike is inspired by and created for making the most of your desire to explore the world around you.
Project Duration
The project was started in Milano (Italy) in June 2020 and has just begun production in various sites across the world. The production will be displayed in the Ifa Show (September 2021), Hk Electronics Show (October 2021), Milan Eicma Show (November 2021), and Ces Las Vegas (January 2022).
Operation Flow
With its strong electric drive unit and unique designed medium size seat, the eClimber gives you a comfortable and performance oriented ride. With its lightweight and many folding functions, it can be carried around almost anywhere or fit in any car trunk. With its Shimano 7 speed gearbox, suspension front fork, rear rack, and lights the performance and user experience are complete.
Patents
The project and design are under a special license agreement between JEEP and Asia Kingston.
