The Ponomarets Eidolon electric bike has bene launched by the Germany-based bike brand as a road bike crafts with a lightweight profile in mind that doesn't skimp on sturdiness or performance. The bike is built with a carbon fiber monocoque frame that has been sculpted by hand at the All Ahead Composites facility in Veitshöchheim, Germany and also features a carbon fork and cabling that has been internal routed for a cleaner look. The bike boasts a silhouette that was finished thanks to a collaboration with the VoyagerCo Belgium design house.
The Ponomarets Eidolon electric bike is equipped with a 250W Mahle X20 motor alongside a 236Wh battery that are rated to provide up to 62-miles of range. Priced at €12,600, the bike is available now for order.
