PowaCycle Introduces New E-Bike Brand
HARLOW, United Kingdom - Infineum is a new brand for high range electric bikes from PowaCycle, a trading style of Ultima Networks PLC, a company committed to green transport. PowaCycle has been active on the British electric bike brand for several years and was one of the first to introduce Lithium Polymer Batteries to the electric bike market.
The Infineum Extreme is the first electric bike from this new brand of e-Bikes. The Infineum Extreme takes a major step forward in the range, a result of the stackable LPX battery system. This system makes it possible to multiply the travel distance by adding extra batteries to be stacked on the rear rack.
For long journeys between recharges the Infineum Extreme can accommodate extra batteries on the same rack, so greatly extended distance journeys become feasible, without stopping to change the batteries or recharge.
The batteries weighting only 1.82 kilogram each they can give between 40 – 53 kilometers assistance. Stacked together the batteries will discharge in parallel. As the batteries are discretely housed in the rear rack they are not obviously visible, and the Extreme has the appearance of a normal bike. This contrasts with the typical electric bike elongated frame, where batteries are housed behind the seat post.
