Upgraded Livall PikaBoost 2 e-bike conversion kit now crowdfunding

According to Livall, their new product is compatible with most bike models and tires, with wheel sizes between 14 and 29 inches, and can be installed in one minute with a proprietary tool to reduce the risk of theft. A 500W motor with AAR 2.0 technology provides a top assistance speed of 32 kph (~20 mph), an increase on the 25 kph (~16 mph) top speed of the older model, and there are four driving modes: Power Assist, Cruise, Workout and Eco. Another upgrade over its predecessor is the assistance range. The standard 158Wh lithium-ion battery allows you to ride for 96 km (~59 miles), up from 30 km (~18 miles) and is fully recharged via USB-C in around three hours. Other features include a regenerative braking system, a rear LED light, and safety features such as fall detection, slip detection and an intelligent e-brake.

Thanks to Bluetooth, you can adjust the PikaBoost’s settings via the accompanying app, which is available for iOS and Android. The starter kit includes the PikaBoost 2, weighing 3 kg (~6.6 lbs), a remote controller, mudguards, the 158Wh power pack weighing 1 kg (~2.2 lbs), and a USB-C charging cable. The Endurance Bundle adds a 220Wh battery pack, a fast charging cable, and tires. The PikaBoost 2 Starter is available with a pledge of $279, 24% off the RRP, while the Endurance Bundle is offered for $388, a 31% saving on the expected future retail price. Both are listed as shipping to backers in countries worldwide across September and October. As with any crowdfunding campaign, there is no guarantee that backers will receive the product.
