Estarli to release a new folding eBike that sits at the intersection of practicality and pleasure.
The British eBike movement is launching its fourth model of bike in response to growing demand. Estarli has designed and built the e20 Play at their Chilterns factory. It is a sister bike to their original e20 and will sit alongside it as a higher-spec model.
Co-Founder and developer of the e20 Play, Alex Francis, said “we couldn’t be more excited to release the Play. It’s inspired by BMXs so we have beefed up the frame and evened out the rear stays. The main changes, however, are on the inside. The Play features a next generation inner rotor hub motor generating 50Nm torque. The brakes are hydraulic and the cables are internally routed.”
Weighing under 20kg but with all-terrain wheel/tyres and a Shimano 8-speed gearset, the Play is as at home on the city streets as it is off grid. Alex adds, “It is a daily bike. Commute on it, nip to the shops on it or fold it into the boot and take it away for an adventure. Its DNA is the same as the original e20 but it’s more versatile, comfortable and performant. We want people to unfold the fun and go ride wherever their imaginations take them.”
