Kreidler Vitality Eco 8+

The 2022 Kreidler Vitality Eco 8+ is a versatile e-bike that stands out thanks to its high-quality specifications and powerful Bosch Performance Line mid-drive motor. The aluminium frame (6061) is specially designed for full integration of the Bosch battery, which not only gives the bike a clean, uncluttered look but also ensures optimum weight distribution. Weighing in at 27 kg, the bike is robust yet manoeuvrable enough for urban use.

The Shimano Nexus 5-speed gear system with coaster brake offers a reliable and low-maintenance way to change gears, whilst the Gates CDX drive belt ensures a quiet and clean drive. Safety is ensured by Shimano’s hydraulic disc brakes (BR-MT200) with 180 mm at the front and 160 mm at the rear, which work reliably even in wet conditions. The Suntour NEX-HLO fork, with 65 mm of travel and a lockout function, ensures a comfortable ride on a variety of surfaces.

In terms of lighting, the Vitality Eco 8+ is fitted with a Herrmans MR Go front light (30 LUX) and a Trelock LS 654 rear light, both of which feature a parking light function. The rear light also offers a brake light function for increased safety on the road. Comfort is ensured by the Selle Royal Milo Plus saddle and the Humpert Ergotec Skalar seatpost with Safety Level 6.

The spec is complemented by high-quality components such as the Humpert Ergotec Ergo Plus handlebars, the Ryde Andra 40 Disc aluminium rims and Schwalbe Marathon Plus tyres. Practical features such as the Racktime luggage rack with spring-loaded flap and the Pletscher Comp Flex rear stand round off the overall package. The Bosch frame battery, with a capacity of 500 Wh, combined with the Intuvia display, ensures intuitive operation and a range designed for extended rides.

Priced at 3,799 euros, the Kreidler Vitality Eco 8+ offers a balanced combination of performance, comfort and safety, making it an attractive choice for commuters and leisure cyclists alike.
