Nicolai EBOXX ULTRA Ebike and Emoto is sick – seen on Eurobike 2021!

The Nicolai EBOXX ULTRA ebike is a beast we are happy to see on Eurobike 2021. This brand, and the man behind it have been building extravagant drive systems and Ebikes for a long time. Today we give you this 275 Nm beast in their own words:

“The EBOXX Ultra closes the gap between eMTB and Emoto. eMotorbikes have massive power from 15 to 35 KW.

Tonnes of torque, but weighing in over 100kgs can make handling difficult. In contrast, a licence-free eMTB weighs about 60% more than a comparable non-motorised MTB and provides similar handling and agility.

However, due to their nominal power of 250 watts, eMTB’s don’t have much MPH. The EBOXX Ultra weighs between 55 and 65kg, its motor has a peak output of 10 KW and generates an incredible 275 Nm torque at the rear wheel.

This power combined with a weight much closer to an MTB than a motorbike guarantees maximum riding smiles, fantastic control, and agile handling. The Italian-made EXT suspension developed specifically for this bike can easily take on bombed-out tracks and the toughest trails.

NICOLAI is a mountain bike brand at heart, so at this point, we clearly define that you have no business riding the EBOXX Ultra in your local forest on MTB trails: it is classified as a motor vehicle. The unrestricted motocross version, the EBOXX Ultra MX, reaches a top speed of 65 km/h and cannot be road legal in Germany in this form.

Like any motocross bike, the MX version should only be operated on private, approved, and closed off-road tracks. Fortunately, approved off-road parks and tracks are becoming more common so you can legally let off steam with e-power.

EBOXX is L1e-B APPROVED FOR GERMANY!

With L1e-B approval, the EBOXX Ultra can be used in Germany as a road vehicle. With an electronic throttle of 4 KW and a maximum speed of 45 km/h, it falls into the category of small moped or scooter. It can be ridden with a scooter driving licence class AM from the age of 16, or with a regular class B car driving licence, which includes class AM. The EBOXX Ultra is not only a radical off-road fun machine, but an attractive alternative for those looking for a different view on their commute than from inside a car. With a 45 km/h limit, plenty of torque and agile handling, riding to work on the EBOXX Ultra is a great experience that might pass by too quickly.

The EBOXX Ultra will be available in variants with or without pedal assistance. The pedal-assist version is equipped with a 9-speed PINION gearbox in parallel to the throttle grip and the gear range allows you to pedal with electric-assist upto 45 km/h so fitness will not fall by the wayside. Alternatively, if you want to concentrate purely on the next berm or jump and accelerate only with the throttle, choose the version with fixed motorbike style footrests.

NICOLAI made no compromises with the EBOXX Ultra drive system by simply buying off-the-shelf parts. All components such as battery, controller, motor, wiring harness and much more have been specially developed for this bike. The control technology offered is completely new with intelligent functions and smart features, the details shall stay secret for a while.

The EBOXX Ultra is in an advanced prototype stage. By the way, the idea of developing an L1e vehicle is by no means new. Back in 2014, NICOLAI showed the first prototype of the NICOLAI RN1, which helped them gain valuable practical experience and develop suitable technology.

NICOLAI will offer the first test rides and accept orders starting OCTOBER 2021. The price will also be fixed by then. Delivery of the first series is planned for summer 2022.” – NICOLAI BIKES
