Shimano Steps: reliable
quality proves its class

Shimano STEPS
All the Cargobikes and Trikes make use of the Shimano Steps (DU6100). This powerful motor is light and reliable, and is located at the bottom bracket. The motor has a good range and long battery life. The handlebar mounted display is simple to use and has a handlebar mounted toggle switch to change between the functions and power settings. There is even a walk function for pedestrianised areas when dismounted. The STEPS system delivers standard 50Nm, with the Enviolo and Shimano nexus 5 hub even 60Nm, with 250w.

Available gear options
Steps is available in combination with different gear options: Shimano Nexus 7 speed with Rollerbrakes, Shimano Di2 5 speed hub with electronic gear changer and the Shimano rollerbrakes Enviolo continuously variable hub gear with rollerbrakes.

Nexus 5 speed hub
This hub is specially made for use in cargo bikes combined with a mid-engine. It has a sturdier build so it can withstand more force than a nexus 7 or 8 speed hub.

Di2
The Di2 version is fully integrated with the motor and by means of electronic control the motor automatically reduces power slightly to enable smooth electronic gear shifting. The system automatically shifts down when coming to a halt therefore you are in the right gear to set off again. Or you can choose to manually select the gears with the toggle switch on the handlebar.

Battery
We deliver the bikes standard with a 418Wh battery, optionally there can be choosen for the upgraded 504Wh version, which has a 20% larger operating range.
