Amflow’s TL e-bike is ready for baby’s first mountain adventure

Amflow, the e-bike brand spun out of DJI, just announced its TL series, a do-it-all “eSUV” suitable for both bikepacking adventures and dropping the kid at daycare on your cycle to work. The all-terrain TL series is built around Amflow’s incredibly compact yet powerful Avinox M2 mid-drive motor. The Amflow TL Carbon offers 125Nm of hill-flattening torque and up to 1100W of peak output. It supports up to 1280Wh of battery capacity when its 800Wh removable battery is paired with a 480Wh extender. You can even opt for a hub that charges up to four batteries sequentially. This sport-tourer comes standard with mudguards, integrated lights, and a rear rack supporting up to 27kg, with the option to add a front rack to haul another 20kg. The rear is MIK HD-compatible allowing you to quickly attach everything from a child seat to panniers or a bike trailer for the family dog, while the front fork, rear suspension, and wide knobby tires help soak up trail ruts and potholes. The Amflow TL’s total weight capacity goes up to 200kg (440lbs) from a bike that can be configured to weigh as little as 22.6kg (50lbs) — that’s very light for a full-suspension utility bike. The Amflow TL also features electronic shifting that detects gear-shift signals to smoothly shift the cassette without the rider needing to pedal. It also works on steep hills by reducing torque during a gear shift to minimize shock and protect the chain. …
