Austrian bike brand Vello has announced its latest innovation, the Vello Sub Smart Utility Bike, a lightweight e-cargo bike designed for urban living.
The Sub will initially be built in two configurations, a flagship titanium model weighing 24kg and a Chromoly steel version at 28kg. Ultrawide 20” Schwalbe tyres keep the centre of gravity low and provide a stable, safe and easy-to-manoeuvre bike. The Sub has space for two passengers as well as a front cargo rack.
The Sub uses premium components including the latest 600W (250W Rated) Bosch Cargo Performance Line motor with 85 NM of torque. The motor is powered by two 500Wh Bosch batteries enabling a potential range of up to 250Km.
Vello said a key part of the design process was to make the bike as versatile as possible. To address this, the brand has developed a tool-free, quick-release accessory system that enables riders to change the configuration of their Sub quickly and easily.
Child seats and cargo baskets can be quickly fitted and removed tool-free thanks to the MIK HD safety system.
