Built with Toray carbon fiber (renowned for its use in Formula 1 and by leading bicycle manufacturers), the Step-Thru Explorer features an innovative low-step frame offering unmatched ease for riders of all ages. The swept-back handlebar enhances the relaxed, upright riding position, reducing strain on the back and wrists. No stress, just smooth cruising!
At only 16kg / 36lbs, it's 50% lighter than aluminum e-bikes making it easier to handle and ride. Its reduced weight allows for quicker acceleration, easier uphill climbs and smoother turns. Whether commuting through the city or exploring trails, the lightweight design ensures less fatigue and greater control.
Smart Power, Longer Rides: The customised motor and torque sensor work together to maximise the e-bike’s power efficiency, providing an impressive 120km range on a single charge. Paired with the Shimano 8-speed drivetrain, it adapts seamlessly to various terrains and speeds, while conserving battery for extended rides.
Tailored Power: Power can be customised across different assist levels via the Urtopia app. Adjust the output to suit your riding style, terrain or energy needs, whether conserving power on easy rides or getting a boost on more challenging routes.
Smart Bike, Smartbar: The Urtopia Smartbar combines 4G connectivity, GPS tracking, anti-theft alerts and on-board navigation in one sleek package. Stay connected with real-time updates, follow turn-by-turn directions without your phone, and enjoy peace of mind with anti-theft security.
All-Terrain, All Fun: Engineered for diverse riding conditions, the Carbon 1 ST offers a smooth ride with its shock-absorbing full carbon fiber frame. Kenda 700 x 40C (max. 45C) gravel tires allow for reliable traction on city streets, gravel paths and light trails.
