NuVinci® Cycling Launches New MY2019 Product Portfolio - Designed Based on Rider Needs
(Thomson Reuters ONE) -
Five new groupsets to expand stepless and automatic shifting technology into
additional, trending use cases
AMSTERDAM, NETHERLANDS / CEDAR PARK, TEXAS, Oct. 04, 2017 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE)
-- NuVinci Cycling, a division of Fallbrook Technologies Inc., is proudly
introducing its MY2019 product portfolio, which includes five new groupsets
created with five distinct consumer personas and types of bicycle models in
mind. The five new groupsets consist of a NuVinci Optimized(TM) controller and
transmission for five market segments: city, trekking, sportive, cargo, and
commercial groupset. All groupsets are available with the manual stepless or
automatic shifting option.
"The eBike market is entering the next step in its evolution. New models are
emerging and growing such as SUV-type and eCargo bikes. NuVinci Cycling is
meeting the needs of these growing, differentiated segments by introducing new
groupsets designed specifically for individual use cases, and the customer
persona attracted to those use cases. We analyzed the riders' needs and their
riding environments to design five very specific groupsets to meet those
individual needs," says Anne Guethoff, Marketing Director at NuVinci Cycling.
Since its initial introduction in 2007, NuVinci Cycling's products have enabled
manufacturers to differentiate their models by significantly enhancing the
riding experience. The new portfolio approach provides manufacturers with a
clear orientation within the product range and allows them to utilize the unique
benefits of the NuVinci Optimized stepless and automatic shifting, for even more
use cases.
In line with the needs of the city rider, the city groupset has an increased
efficiency, while offering a maintenance-free ride through belt drive
compatibility, which is also enabled in the trekking groupset. Additionally,
the trekking groupset offers a wide ratio range with an animated display to help
the user find the perfect ratio, suitable for their weekend ride. The sportive
groupset addresses the desires of the fitness-focused rider and provides
compatibility to thru-axle dropouts, while enabling shifting under load of up to
100Nm, even with powerful eMTB motors. The commercial and cargo groupsets offer
a commercial warranty and focus on durability, while ensuring longevity through
specifically chosen materials like harder durometer grip material. The safety of
the rider has also been taken into account by offering an integrated brake disc
mount of up to 203mm on the cargo groupset.
"All transmissions and controllers feature an internal and external design that
is the most suitable for its use case. Both the OEM and the rider will see the
benefits, both from an ROI and riding experience point of view. Over or under-
speccing can now be an issue of the past," summarizes Richard Hilgart, Product
Manager at NuVinci Cycling.
The five groupsets will be available for MY2019 models, with shipments starting
in the second quarter of 2018. Until then, the current products can be ordered
and warranty stock of the previous products will still be available.
