Shock-Absorbing German E-Bikes

RADON Launched the DEFT 9.0 Mountain Bike With a Smooth Suspension

— May 31, 2022 — Autos
'RADON,' the bike manufacturer famous for its high-quality German bikes, debuted the 'DEFT 9.0,' an adult-sized electric mountain bike. The DEFT 9.0 has a large 750 Wh battery with a Shimano motor that delivers a range well beyond 50 miles under certain riding conditions. The bike has a 12-speed gear system that allows it to control smoothly whether on flat ground, an incline, or riding downhill.

The RADON DEFT 9.0 boasts a drive manufactured by 'Bosch,' a leading bicycle manufacturer. This drive delivers 85 Nm of torque and 250 watts of wheel support which allows the rider to put in as much - or as little - effort as they like while riding. This is perfect for cyclists who want a little extra workout combined with the convenience of an electric mountain bike.

Trend Themes
1. Electric Mountain Bikes - Incorporating innovative technology such as large batteries and Shimano motors, more companies will develop electric versions of traditional mountain bikes.
2. Advanced Suspension Systems - Advancements in suspension systems like the one used by RADON will become standard in mountain bikes, leading to greater comfort and control for riders.
3. Smart Control Systems - As bikes become more advanced, smart control systems that let the rider customize their e-bike experience will be in higher demand.
Industry Implications
1. Bicycle Manufacturing - Companies will strive to develop electric mountain bikes that provide the rider with better range, control, and an easier workout, thus expanding the e-bike market.
2. Outdoor Sports and Recreation - As technologies such as advanced suspension systems become more common, they have a significant potential to disrupt the outdoor sports and recreation industry by creating a new type of outdoor activity experience for people who like to bike on mountain terrain.
3. Green Transportation - Electric mountain bikes can provide a cleaner method of transportation in areas where traditional cars are obstacles to efficient transport such as cities, leading to changes to the personal transportation industry.
