Next-Generation E-Bikes

Modmo's NX12 E-Bike Makes Changes to the Traditional E-Bike Model

— August 8, 2022 — Autos
Modmo Technologies unveiled its flagship, next-generation electric bicycle, the 'NX12.' This e-bike boasts noteworthy improvements in several areas, such as sustainability, longevity, and versatility. Firstly, the NX12 is manufactured out of thermoplastic composite with carbon fiber composite pellets, meaning its frame is far more sustainable than the traditional aluminum or carbon fiber frames on the market.

Secondly, the NX12 boasts a smart android system that not only displays metrics related to battery life, travel time, and more, but also uses smart technologies to optimize these traits, essentially extending the battery life on its own. On the versatility side, Modmo Technologies continued its trend of making its e-bikes modular with the NX12. As a result, many components of the bike, such as its motor, can be swapped out with other makes and models.
