The semi-integrated Bosch PowerPack battery, with a capacity of 400 Wh, ensures sufficient range for everyday use. The Bosch Intuvia display provides all the key information on riding conditions and allows for easy control of the motor.

The MATRIX handlebars, with a width of 630 mm and a 30-degree backsweep, ensure an ergonomic riding position, whilst the MATRIX VLG-1777D2 ergonomic grips offer additional comfort.
