The 2021 Kreidler Vitality Eco 8 back-pedal e-bike is an e-bike which, at a price of 3,149 EUR, offers a wide range of technical features designed for comfort and performance. The frame is made from 6061 aluminium and fully integrates the third-generation Bosch mid-drive motor, giving the bike a modern and clean-cut look. Weighing 26 kg in total, it is robust yet manoeuvrable.
The braking system comprises Shimano BR-MT200 disc brakes with a 180 mm rotor at the front and a 160 mm rotor at the rear, ensuring reliable stopping power. The brake levers are Shimano Altus 3-finger levers, which offer precise control. The Shimano Nexus 5-speed gear system with coaster brake is operated via a comfortable twist grip, ensuring ease of use.
The Suntour NEX fork, with 65 mm of travel, provides comfortable suspension on uneven terrain. For lighting, the bike is fitted with a Herrmans MR Go front light, which offers 30 LUX brightness and a parking light. The Herrmans H-Trace rear light also features a parking light, which increases visibility in traffic.
The Vitality Eco 8 features high-quality components such as the Miranda aluminium crankset with a length of 170 mm and the Shimano CS-C7000 sprocket with 30 teeth. Power is transmitted via a KMC Z1 EPT chain. The handlebars are aluminium Humpert Ergotec City Cruiser bars, 635 mm wide, complemented by Herrmans DD37 grips with screw clamps for a secure grip.
The Humpert Ergotec Octopus 50 stem is angle-adjustable, allowing for individual customisation of the riding position. The headset is semi-integrated, offering stability and durability. The Schürmann YAK19 Disc aluminium hollow-section rims and Schwalbe Citizen tyres in size 47-622 ensure reliable road holding.
The bike is fitted with a Selle Royal Milo Plus saddle, which offers comfort on longer rides. The Humpert Ergotec SP 5.0 suspension seatpost provides additional cushioning. SKS plastic mudguards protect against splashes, whilst the Pletscher Comp Flex rear stand ensures the bike stands securely.
The Racktime luggage rack is strut-free and features a spring-loaded flap that makes it easier to load items. The Bosch Performance mid-drive motor delivers powerful assistance with its 250-watt output, whilst the fully integrated lithium-ion battery, with a capacity of 500 Wh, enables a range suitable for longer tours. The Intuvia display offers intuitive operation and displays all key information at a glance.
