Kellys’ New Theos eMTB Has a Robot-Built Carbon/Steel Thermoplastic Frame

PRESS RELEASE: Kellys Bike Firm

After 3 years of improvement by Kellys’ R&D division and cooperation with our European companions, the time has come to introduce all-new Kellys THEOS F-series.

Kellys Theos F is the primary full-suspension e-bike on the earth made of recent technology materials known as thermoplastic hybrid steel-carbon composite, a.okay.a. FEATHER which we use in cooperation with our buddies from Belgian expertise firm Rein4ced. This materials combines a lot stronger thermoplastic binder, carbon fibers and inox metal microfibers which reinforces the fabric even additional. Not solely the fabric is revolutionary, but additionally the way in which the body is constructed out of it. Thermoplastic hybrid steel-carbon composite frames could be constructed by robots in a European manufacturing facility for premium high quality and supreme efficiency.

In comparison with carbon fibre resin composite the all-new thermoplastic hybrid steel-carbon composite is:

• 200% extra impact-resistant
• 200% extra sturdy
• With out weight penalty
• Produced by superior robotic manufacturing for even higher high quality
• Recyclable

The all-new THEOS F is available in two variants: Tremendous-Enduro with 180/170 millimetres of journey and Enduro with decreased journey of 150/140 millimeters. Regardless of the variant, THEOS F utilises a mullet structure with 29” entrance, and 27.5+” rear wheel for swift cornering, a lot better dealing with and velocity. The brand new chassis is full-composite, which implies there are not any metallic inserts used to extend the sturdiness much more and cut back weight.

The suspension makes use of the newest custom-tuned Suppose Hyperlink virtual-pivot suspension platform with asymmetrical damper kinematics to realize desired geometry whereas holding all Suppose Hyperlink advantages resembling sensitivity, brake- and drivetrain-independence and no pedal kickback.

RETRACTABLE 720 WH BATTERY

THEOS F comes with a very new energy supply. The Kellys Re-Cost K1 Li-ion battery is solely co-developed for THEOS F by Kellys-BMZ cooperation.

• The Kellys Re-Cost K1 presents mighty 720Wh and capability of 20 Ah for excellent vary and efficiency.
• Due to patented inside cooling system and new-generation energy cells, the battery has even higher capacity-to-weight ratio than earlier than. Now you’ve rather more juice and the bike dealing with in terrain is phenomenal due to low weight.
• On prime of that, the brand new Kellys Re-Cost K1 battery comes with a very new retractable fixation system. This distinctive answer permits for retracting the battery by sliding it out of the body’s downtube with ease whereas holding the construction of the body untouched, avoiding an enormous holein the facet of the down tube, which would scale back body rigidity and worsen the bike’s behaviour throughout aggressive driving.

DRIVETRAIN

To finish the image of the subsequent technology e-bike THEOS F is powered by the newest Shimano drive items.
