The innovation of electric-assist sports bicycles
Evolution of off-road performance
The biggest features of the sports type are the centrally mounted motor and the multi-stage assist function. For example, the "Senko 005" uses front and rear suspensions, which greatly improves shock absorption during off-road driving. In addition, the model with a maximum torque of 200Nm provides stable driving force even on slopes and gravel roads. On a cycling tour of Hokkaido, the four-stage assist level adjustment covers differences in physical strength and allows the entire group to maintain their pace.
Designed for sports use
Models that combine a lightweight aluminum frame with 20-inch high-grip tires perform well on both paved and unpaved roads. The chain drive system transmits more torque than a belt drive, making it suitable for steep hills. The latest model also comes with an automatic parking function, so you can safely stop the vehicle on a slope.

Benefits of a compact design
The 20-inch model features a compact size of about 1.5m in length. This series is equipped with a 10-amp battery and has a low-floor frame design that makes it easy for people over 150cm tall to get on and off. It is also ideal for narrow bicycle parking spaces in front of stations and for loading into elevators, and is popular among people living in apartments.
Multifunctional design and practicality
By switching between the 3-speed gear and power mode, you can achieve both strong assistance on slopes and battery saving on flat roads. In addition, the handlebar lock function improves safety when taking children to and from nursery school. It is useful for everyday use with a lot of luggage.
