Desiknio X20 Pinion e-bike with 250 W Mahle motor and X20 smart Bluetooth unit launches

The 2023 Desiknio X20 Pinion e-bike has been announced in Europe. The premium electric bicycle uses a 250 W Mahle X20 Hub Motor, weighing 1.3 kg (~2.9 lbs), and a PAS sensor to monitor your pedalling; the engine can assist you at speeds up to 25 kph (~16 mph). The integrated 250 Wh battery is hidden inside the bike’s frame, providing up to 100 km (~62 miles) of assistance range. A full recharge of the battery takes two to three hours.

Three models are available: Standard, Standard Carbon Fork and Comfort. The latter two variants have a carbon fibre fork, lowering the weight of the bike and reducing drag. Another difference between the models is the frame geometry, with the Standard bikes using a diamond-shaped frame and the Comfort option with a lower step-through. A Supernova V521s front and E3 taillights can be switched on using the iWOC ONE controller attached to the handlebar. You can also use the unit to change your assistance power.
