The Premium i Auto models are the most innovative e-bikes within the Premium i series. The built-in Enviolo AutomatiQ hub takes care of all the shifting for you. Just enjoy the ride, your bike will do the rest!
Switching gears yourself is a thing of the past! The only thing you have to do is setting the desired cadence, and the stepless automatic technology will adjust the shifting system for you, so you can focus on traffic and your surroundings.
The shifting feels natural and adapts to your behaviour while biking. Hills or bridges are no challenge for you. As you go uphill, the resistance decreases. While going downhill, the system shifts to a higher gear. And when you stop, the system automatically shifts back so that you can comfortably accelerate again later.
By always cycling in the most optimum gear, the hub won`t be used in the wrong way.
This prevents wear and extends the lifespan of the component. Making the Premium i more durable in this way makes us proud.
Jos Schutte, Technical Innovation Lead at QWIC, says:
“We work to make our e-bikes a step smarter and better every generation. But of course, ‘smarter’ should not mean that the bike becomes more complicated. On the contrary, we strive to make cycling itself as enticing as possible. The cooperation between enviolo, Bafang and QWIC makes it possible to greatly improve the cycling experience by completely taking over the act of shifting from the user.”
