designed and handmade in italy, the carbon fiber electric bike leaos 2.0 is modeled after the vespa scooter, featuring cables that run directly through the handlebars and into the frame. in addition to nuvinci automatic shifting, the e-bike also incorporates fully carbon fiber mudgauards and handlebar with integrated display, and a lighting system from supernova.

the carbon fiber monocoque body is complemented by a battery developed with manufacturer BMZ. the newly engineered engine drives the bike more smoothly, boasting high torque and reaching speeds of 45 km/h.

the comfortable seat position and special geometry make for a secure ride. its low entry makes the e-bike a unisex vehicle. above and beyond design, suitability for daily use and low maintenance have been the main focal points of the development process. schwalbe balloon tires provide for optimum comfort.

various fittings and colors are available in matte black carbon or two-tone white/carbon colorways
