It is available at a price of 3099 EUR and offers a wide range of technical features suitable for both daily city commuting and longer rides.

The bike’s frame is made of aluminium, which ensures a good balance between stability and weight. The maximum load capacity is 145 kg, whilst the bike’s own weight is 26 kg. This makes the model both robust and manoeuvrable.

The braking system features SHIMANO BR-MT200 disc brakes at the front and rear, fitted with 180mm SHIMANO SM-RT10 brake discs. The matching SHIMANO BL-MT200 brake levers ensure reliable and precise braking performance.

The bike features a SHIMANO Nexus SL-C7000-5 gear lever with a total of 5 gears, enabling simple and efficient gear changes. The rigid fork is also made of aluminium, which contributes to the bike’s overall stability.

Lighting is provided by the FUXON F130K front light (30 lux) and the FUXON R-99K rear light, which ensure adequate visibility and safety on the road. The model is fitted with ZECURE VP-F65 pedals, whilst the crankset is from SAMOX. The sprocket is an SM-Gear19SU and the drivetrain is a PC-10.

The handlebars are a Competition SL Ergo model, complemented by ERGON GC10-Nexus grips and a Speedlifter Twist stem. The headset is an ACROS AiX-322 R3. The rims are MACH1 Disc, fitted with SCHWALBE Big Apple tyres (50-406) and Spoke 2.0 blk spokes. The hubs are from SHIMANO: the Alivio HB-M4053 model at the front and the Nexus SG-C7000-5 model at the rear.

The saddle is a Selle Bassano Volare, mounted on an SP-216 blk seatpost (34.9 mm) and secured with a seat clamp (38.6 mm). Mudguards from SKS PET A56 and a chain guard from Kettler Quadriga provide additional protection against dirt and the weather. The URSUS Wave kickstand and the IRack 2 luggage rack complete the kit.

The bike is powered by a Bosch Active Line Plus motor with a torque of 50 Nm. The accompanying Bosch PowerTube Horizontal battery has a capacity of 500 Wh and is controlled via a Bosch Intuvia display, which allows for intuitive operation.

In summary, the Kettler Quadriga Cityhopper FL is a well-designed and versatile e-bike that performs impressively both in the city and on longer journeys.
