The new iGravelX features a new mid-drive motor that promises powerful assistance. Built to perform off-road, the e-bike also packs a large battery. It is available in different model variants, including options with a carbon frame and electronic Di2 shifting.
BH Bikes has added a new model to its lineup: the iGravelX. Unsurprisingly, this is a gravel e-bike—designed for off-road tracks and rougher paths without being a full-fledged mountain bike. It supports tires up to 50 mm wide, which is one of the key differences between a gravel e-bike and a traditional road bike. Wider tires with a more pronounced tread provide better off-road traction and improved ride comfort.
At the heart of the new BH Bikes iGravelX is a SEG-BLM mid-drive motor from SEG Automotive. Weighing just 2.1 kg, it delivers a peak output of 700 W and a maximum torque of 80 Nm, providing substantial assistance even on steep climbs. Total battery capacity stands at 810 Wh, split between a 630 Wh internal battery and a 180 Wh range extender. With the range extender attached, the bike reportedly achieves a range of up to 190 km. The iGravelX comes in five overall configurations.
The iGravelX 2.2 and 2.4 feature carbon handlebars but lack a carbon frame, with pricing set at €3,700 and €4,300, respectively. The entry-level carbon version, the iGravelX Carbon 2.7, is priced at €4,500. Sitting at the top of the range is the iGravelX Carbon 2.9 for €7,000, which comes equipped with electronic Shimano GRX Di2 shifting and Vision TC45 carbon wheels.

I have been active as a journalist for over 10 years, most of it in the field of technology. I worked for Tom’s Hardware and ComputerBase, among others, and have been working for Notebookcheck since 2017. My current focus is particularly on mini PCs and single-board computers such as the Raspberry Pi – so in other words, compact systems with a lot of potential. In addition, I have a soft spot for all kinds of wearables, especially smartwatches. My main profession is as a laboratory engineer, which is why neither scientific contexts nor the interpretation of complex measurements are foreign to me.
