Range-Roving Lightweight E-Bikes

The Diminutive 'Curt' E-Bike Offers 70 Kilometers Of Range

— March 30, 2022 — Autos
Estonian company Ampler Bikes is not resting on the laurels that it has earned from the recent release of the second iteration of its urban e-bike collection, but is instead looking to make a further splash with the release of its lightest product yet in the form of the 'Curt,' a lightweight e-bike that offers a fine balance between low weight and high performance.

The 'Curt' is a lightweight e-bike that weighs in at only 14.4 kg. As far as performance specs are concerned, this e-bike comes fitted with a 250-watt motor that enables a top speed of 25 km/h. This e-bike also offers a more than reliable performance in terms of charging, with the ability to provide approximately 70 km of range per full charge, even though this number can be stretched upwards depending on how the e-bike is wielded.

The 'Curt' is available in three sizes to cater to riders of different heights, and is priced at around $3,500.
