Norwegian Bike Maker Buddy Bike Unveils The sX1 Commuter E-Bike via insideevs.com
Norwegian bicycle manufacturer Buddy Bike has recently unleashed its newest commuter-focused electric bicycle that features a striking design that combines the ease of use of a commuter with the sporty and sleek styling cues of cross-country racers. It’s called the sX1, and it’s been built in partnership with Eker Design, a company renowned for churning out innovative designs across multiple industries.
As such, it’s pretty clear to see why the sX1 looks the way it does. In reality, nothing is stopping you from buying an electric cross-country mountain bike and using it as an urban city slinger. However, Buddy Bike and Eker Design wanted to create something much more attuned to the urban setting. With that, the sX1 has a low-slung, almost step-through frame and a rigid front fork.
Speaking of the frame, Buddy Bike claims that the sX1’s frame is built out of recyclable carbon, highlighting their efforts to address environmental concerns. That being said, however, it remains to be seen how the company intends to recycle these frames once their service life is over. Nevertheless, the carbon frame allows for a super sleek design.
As for performance, Buddy Bike showcases the sX1 with a Sachs mid-drive motor pumping out up to 112 Nm of torque. However, you also have the option of choosing either a Bosch or Bafang motor instead., the sX1 can be configured with either a 450-watt-hour, or a 650-watt-hour unit. Again, the company makes no mention of claimed range figures for any of the battery types.
