World’s first handbike without a chain, belt or derailleur: The Smart Free!
Chainless PERS drive (handbike-by-wire)
At the centre is a generative crank unit: cranking generates electricity that powers the wheel hub motor via the battery. No chainring, no chain, no derailleur.
- Folded into almost any car boot
For transport, the control head is folded in – one movement, no tools, no dismantling! - Reverse gear
By moving the cranks backwards, the Smart Free reverses in a controlled manner – ideal for manoeuvring in everyday life. - Recuperation
The wear-free motor brake brakes electrically and recovers energy in the process. - Reduced wear
Without a chain and derailleur, the very parts that used to need the most servicing and replacing on a handbike are gone. And if braking is always done electrically, by turning the cranks backwards, no brake wear occurs at all. - Deliberately compact with 16 inch
With the Smart Free we deliberately offer a compact and low-maintenance handbike. The 16-inch wheel keeps the attachment short and makes the Smart Free a compact handbike suited to everyday use. - Range
The Smart Free can achieve a range of up to 60 km. Even with an empty battery, riding on level ground remains possible in limited emergency operation. - High-quality components
Braking is handled as standard by a Magura MT5, a four-piston brake from mountain biking, anti-kink springs at the transitions and a protective conduit around the line itself. - Adjustable crank height
Crank height and axle distance can be adjusted at any time by yourself.
