Challenge

At Velobyrd we want to actively shape the future of mobility and that of the e-bike. Knowing what technology can do and what the market needs, our passion drives us to envision and build the best possible products.

Solution

You don't build the best bike by taking a few ideas from the bike industry, write SUV on it, install a large battery and an XT gear shifter. You build it by rethinking it. Shogun impressively shows what is possible with the consistent application of current technology.

Take: the best drive system from Bosch, make mounting and dismounting safer and more comfortable because it is deeper and increase the comfort even more with full suspension. A Gates belt drive makes the Shogun virtually maintenance-free. The result is a cool design - and above all an e-bike that is suitable for everyday use and cycling with top performance.

Started in April 2021 with a development time of just 20 months it really is in a class of its own.

Every detail is well thought out and thought through to the end.
Best example: the development of the belt tensioner.
