Prática de Shadowing: Are Gears Gone For Good? + Hottest New eBike Tech! | EUROBIKE 2026 - Aprenda a falar inglês com vídeo

folks let's not beat around the bush eurobike 2026 is all

about gabau versus avonox let's have a look at some of the bikes wow now everybody thought

or at least lots of people thought

that eurobike 2026 was going to be a quiet affair absolutely

not as i mentioned on the video on the channel yesterday

there is a monumental face-off going on in booth 12

or hall 12 we've got Avinox to the east and we've got Gabau in the west.

Gabau is actually from just over the border in Hong Kong.

This is a CVT motor continuously variable transmission.

It was in cars such as DAFs in the 1970s.

What it means is just that actually it continuously

and variably keeps the motor in the optimum cadence and therefore delivering the right power.

This is untested me i'm not ridden this i'm going to go

and have a go with outside as well to get give you guys some perspective on it

but i think possibly one of the benefits of having a cvt drive is going to be in mud situations

because there's not going to be any sudden moves because

when you're riding mud as we do on mountain bikes a

lot of the time is you know you need to avoid

that slippage on the back wheel especially on e-bikes

which are putting out quite a bit of power in terms of power 1500

watts and 150 newton meters obviously that hints at the fact

that they are going head to head with avonox across the

aisle there um this particular bike i think it's a i

mean it's it's a looker right it's 160 mil travel coil

shock um this is obviously a concept prototype bike um there's

no gear shifting as i say this does everything for you always in the right cadence

there is

so much to talk about um silence the fact you don't

need to change gear simplicity um look i'm riding around a

car park right i do not want to give any sort

of feedback in terms of the performance of this bike

because i've simply got to take it into the mountains you know we've seen this

so many times with gearboxes over the years you really need

to get into the mountains to get some proper feedback on

a bike like this uh kind of a quick look at

the drive unit here folks this is 3.85 kilos it's it's

less than the size of my hand um like i said actually 130 let's get it right 130 newton meters

but 150 newton meters in the high power mode um this

is a hell of a start to the show there's gates

drive on there for the looks of it i think it's

gates drive you've got the tensioner here whole new world folks a whole new world is unfolding here at eurobike 2026

i think these are really exciting times for the mountain bike

industry as a whole um oh i want to see louie

earlier i don't want to talk with me i'd rather dance can you dance

the mountain bike world has changed there is no getting away

from it actually there's no getting away from the avonox booth

because there are so many people here there's presentations going on

in the background from some of these brands

which are showcasing their bikes on the avanox booth and there are

so many of them i'm going to give you a quick

run through of the bikes with the m2s motor starting off from spain

and by the way i'm not going to give you suspension travel

because there's simply no time to do all

that just a taster for what's out here from spain we've

got the mondrake zender it's got a podium fork full carbon

fiber frame switching across for the north from andorra the commensal meta sx this time it's aluminium

so they can be slightly lower price

that's the great thing with a lot of these m2s bikes

is the prices do seem to come down uh relative to some of the bigger brands

or some of the other brands out there in the world uh across to spain uno cesarojo

and his team always produce such an amazing bike visually

and that's definitely been the center of attention for quite a

few months actually coming over to germany we've got the yt decoy coming across we've got the pivot shuttle amped

and then from switzerland the thomas oba rider this is quite

unique right folks let us know your thoughts on this one

we were lucky enough to ride the thomas with the maxon drive last year uh

but i think that's quite unique with the olin suspension on it

and then there's the am flow and folks propane ecano here

and if you come over here one bike

which we're really excited about is obviously the new white carve now we've covered The Carve Evo, which is 170 mil travel,

a 29 inch flying machine.

Definitely leans more towards the gravity side of E-mountain biking, although still an incredible climber with the m2s motor the carve

is 150 mil travel 29 inch wheels m2s motor comes in

different component specifications at amazing prices now for me we've seen

all these bikes here at the avnox booth what we're now looking for is nuances we're looking at handling geometry

poise on the trail and all-round ability and me

and Neil simply cannot wait to go head-to-head this bike versus

the car Vivo I think for most most people this could

be the bike folks that's literally a very small taster of some of the bikes from Avonox

and it could be coming back tomorrow with some of the others such as the Atherton

and the Forbidden and the T-Wing

but one bike I'm really glad has got a bit of

space around it is the Tarok from Raymond I'm really excited about this bike.

We talked about it for the first time in Riva Delgada recently.

Again, M2S, but it comes in so many great specifications at great prices.

So there's something in this bike for everybody.

Just a bit of information about the company, Susie and Felix Puello.

They brought us high bike, Gas Gas, Husqvarna.

And I mean, I think, you know, the heritage continues with such an amazing looking bike as the taroc.

Such a buzz going on here at the Avanox booth with four different gearbox bikes and with Nico Minard.

So rather than talk with this myself, I'm going to talk with the main man.

Now Nico Minard's the man behind so many famous common sale bikes over the years.

He is the chief engineer.

So let's talk about this bike and it's a prototype bike.

It's got the Avanox MG concept motor.

So how long have you been working on this then?

We started in November, like in November we got the chance,

no December, because November we got the chance to try the very first prototype in China,

then December they gave us the first information and we start working together and so from there.

100

It's interesting, different brands have taken a different philosophy when it comes to either chain or belt drive.

101

From a personal perspective I think chains make more sense, what was your thinking behind chain versus belt i mean to be honest we didn't have time to invest

102

that much into belt i'm gonna be some

103

but at the moment it's completely complicated for us

104

because we have like a unified swing arm

105

so it's you need to have to have a connection

106

so you lose a bit of that stiffness

107

and stuff we are not about full stiffness

108

but at least to to get a good balance

109

so it's a bit complicated then also

110

because we didn't take the route of a high pivot then

111

uh it's pretty complete to deal with the different lengths of belts

112

because you know you have a limited number of lengths available

113

and with chain you can just get the links you want

114

so for us it's a bit more easy at the moment we don't close the door to belts

115

but we'll see in the future.

116

Can you give us like a time frame when it's going to happen?

117

No I cannot say because Avinox didn't allow us to talk about The power torque are the same as the M2S,

118

but what is important is that you can keep the power longer than the current M2S.

119

Also with this amount of power, you know that cassettes and derailers and chains are getting in trouble.

120

We need to be really careful, obviously M2S they have little things to try to save that.

121

But for us in the future with high power motor is about gearbox and so on.

122

So you can shift gear while stationary on this bike?

123

Yeah, you can change stationary and on power, which is really cool.

124

And I think it's 0.1 second, so it's pretty cool.

125

Okay, Nico, thanks so much for your time, man.

126

Thank you.

127

Folks, if you saw Ferdi and myself in the Dolomites last year on the Amflow experience, this is Ferdi, who is your job title?

128

Product Experience Director of Avanox.

129

So look at this, check this out.

130

Everyone takes the mick out of me.

131

That's the latest trend I would say.

132

Get your little ones.

133

Actually yours is bigger.

134

The thing is it's the same material look.

135

Yeah, it's the same material.

136

Same style.

137

I was able to choose colors and I said I'll go for black.

138

That's what I did.

139

Well, okay, now I've got you here quickly.

140

I mean you're gonna be one inundirted person in the next few days.

141

Yeah.

142

2024, you know, changed the mountain bike world overnight.

143

And it seems you've done it again.

144

I mean, you did it in April with the M2S.

145

Right.

146

And here we are, like, literally a few months later.

147

Yeah.

148

Insane.

149

Ferdi, come on, give us a bit more intel on that, because I've literally just arrived here.

150

Give us a bit more intel.

151

I would say it's the holy grail of e-biking, because you finally can integrate the transmission in your motor.

152

You don't have to, you know, worry about your transmission, the derailleur, the cassette anymore.

153

You know, that is super cool.

154

Internally, are they metal gears inside or what's going on?

155

I cannot reveal too much.

156

It's a combination of different technologies.

157

But the cool thing is it's maintenance free.

158

No belt, no oil change.

159

I think that's the key important fact for you guys.

160

Can you give us a rough idea of the weight of the system?

161

We aim at a weight where if you combine an M2S with a traditional drive transmission like an EXO, it's roughly about the same weight.

162

Can we give you some idea here of launch times with some of these bikes?

163

Next year.

164

That's not so far off though, right?

165

Yeah.

166

And you're working with some such cool brands.

167

There seems to be like a shift in the key players.

168

You've now got like Canyon and Comensal and Mondraker and Forbidden.

169

I mean, those were previously boutique bikes maybe.

170

I don't know.

171

What's your thoughts on it?

172

No, you're absolutely right.

173

I would say currently it's the time of the brands that are able to move fast.

174

And it's exactly those brands, like the more boutique brands, maybe a bit smaller, but they are nimble.

175

They're fast.

176

They're really, they love innovation.

177

Whereas bigger, larger brands sometimes are a bit afraid of innovation, I would say.

178

And as you know, Avanox is like a super innovative company.

179

We're like pushing the boundaries.

180

Those are great partners to us.

181

So all the brands you see here on the booth, they are amazing partners because they broke their,

182

I would say, traditional rhythm of developing bikes for three to four years and broke them down to two,

183

two and a half years to get our motors and our system in their bikes.

184

And I think that there's a big reward because the ones that are early to the market, they will sell bikes.

185

Raymon are one of the few brands in the world with a multi-strategy approach when it comes to e-mounter bikes.

186

They've got bikes with Avanox, Panasonic and also Bosch.

187

This is actually the latest in the range.

188

This is the Ridoch, Ridoch Comp and Ridoch Ultra.

189

The difference is obviously in the price.

190

The Ridoch Comp starts at €3,299.

191

I mean, that is some bike.

192

Got the Panasonic system in there, 105 Nm.

193

when you move up to the ultra slightly more power 150 newton meter

194

but still the prices on these bikes are pretty stunning um

195

like i said folks three different types of bikes three different

196

types of personalities uh for lots of different rider types

197

so raymond bikes definitely on the move this is a bit

198

of an enigma a company called radiate now uh just met a gentleman called thomas

199

who advises me this is a sort of engineering company from switzerland

200

so we're going to try

201

and give you guys more information it's got the gubou cvt system on there um battery options are 750 850

202

and 900 watt hours

203

so gubou's on the move obviously there's going to be some

204

developments there are definitely going to be some more bikes with the gubou cvt system

205

so over the next couple of days we're going to try

206

and bring you some more intel on that setup so this is preto guys Prito from?

207

China?

208

Senjen?

209

I think this could be the year of the robot.

210

There you go.

211

We've done it.

212

Two.

213

That's nice.

214

This one.

215

So behind Prito is a big company, Shawai, and they make complete microdrive systems.

216

Everything between 10 centimeters, like the e-bike system, as small as this this is a complete e-drive system

217

that you find in smart home

218

and mobile phones that's a motor yeah that's a complete motor

219

so the the teeth inside are so small you would consider them dirt right right

220

so small but they are specialized in designing these and they are in car industry that that is

221

that is insane dirk that's a that's a motor yes wow

222

i love roadfields i love the look at their bikes i

223

love the engineering i think they're super cool obviously is an

224

m2s motor 800 watt internal battery eight pins dropper this bike weighs in just over 20 kilos hence the reason

225

that they've kept the bike non-removable um some key features which stand these bikes apart are the

226

chain stay length changes from small up to xl so on the smaller bikes you've got 435 the larger bikes 460.

227

So the fact that the bike keeps its balance as you go down or up the range.

228

Folks, let us know what you think of the road field, I think it's really cool.

229

Right at the Steppenwolf stand, we saw some of the bikes at reaver

230

but look at this tycoon s 170 mil travel m2s motor

231

i mean that's a look at there's two versions there's 8999

232

or there's a 10k version as well steppenwolf right should we

233

talk prices uh for five minutes crucis from prague i've got the avonox system m2

234

or m2s that's reflected in the price m2 bike starts 3499

235

m2s bikes 63899 not only they've got different motors they've also

236

got different battery options as well you can either run this bike with a 600

237

or an 800 watt hour option

238

or you can have a 29 inch wheel 170 mil travel

239

flying machine for one euro under 13 000 quite different isn't

240

it folks u2 gear is one of karlay nicolai's pioneering new products it's a two-speed bolt-on planetary gear

241

which takes away the inflexibility of maybe a single speed setup

242

but also the kind of maybe over complexity of having a

243

kind of derailleur setup on the back of your bike it's

244

actually designed to go with the new bosch hub drive

245

which we're going to talk about a little later on

246

but i mean it's the quality is as ever nicolai quality simplicity on there

247

and i just love the fact

248

that you can actually bolt this onto a standard sort of shimano free hub as well

249

so something in there for everybody belt drive obviously uh what we're going to do is going to go outside

250

and try to get a ride one of these systems

251

so folks we've got eco tour and a turbo on here

252

so i'm going to give it a quick spin

253

and just get it i mean we talk about power

254

and we talk about torque but some people you just want a simple system

255

and this has got 45 new degrees in the back

256

so hang fire a second i'm just going to give it

257

a quick spin do you know what i think i'm just

258

thinking lots of people want to go into the countryside

259

and ride just on fire roads

260

and this is more than enough we've got different power modes

261

which is kind of kind of acts like a gear you've

262

got two speed on the hub drive in the back you've

263

got simplicity you've got reliability you've got the service backup of

264

Bosch i mean what a cool bike to just go

265

and explore the trails in the woods you might have seen us riding the event

266

and current out in the hills of uh Los Angeles a

267

few months ago this is a top-end bike top-end spec for 5,499 euros

268

but I want to introduce you to the current it's 140 150 mil travel

269

but this one is 3999

270

so what you've got here is a high torque bike high

271

power 800 watt hour battery great spec on it great performance

272

I mean I think 140 150 really is a sweet spot for most people

273

when it comes to riding an e-mounted bike but it's just the way the bike handles the the way the bike rides.

274

So from Los Angeles with bases in the east as well, tune into Aventon because these guys are on it.

275

Nukeproof have got two very cool bikes on the stand with the kilowatt and the megawatt.

276

Starting off with the kilowatt, this is an all-mountain bike, 150, 160.

277

Price is super competitive from 4,000 up to 8,000.

278

The only difference between all the models is the entry-level bike

279

has got the m2 motor all the other bikes have got the m2s obviously m2s has got slightly higher torque

280

and peak power uh weights around just 21 kilos great component specifications on this bike 800 watt hour batteries

281

but the small it's a genuine small comes with a 600

282

watt hour battery uh moving on to the megawatt alloy factory

283

this is more of an enduro bike 165 170 this is aluminium compared to the kilowatt

284

which is full carbon uh bosch cx motor in there

285

so the cx and the cxr when it comes to the power

286

when it comes to the service backup reliability

287

and durability it is still one of the best powerhouses in

288

the business really interesting uh start to eurobike 2026 um just

289

to give you like a bit of perspective of what we've

290

done this morning over the years right uh eurobuck was at

291

friedrichshaven there was 12 massive halls took ages to get around

292

them the show moved to frankfurt even bigger even longer to try

293

and get around all the halls what we've done in this

294

video right has been done in no more than about 200 square meters just to give you an idea um

295

so there's lots more to see i need time to process

296

what's been going on here the last 12 hours especially in terms of the sort of the gabau

297

and the avanox head to head

298

the whole business about you know america and asia and all

299

that so folks joining us tomorrow well i've had a bit more time to think about what's going on

300

but uh very interesting developments especially in terms of the cvd and also the gearbox concept from avanox
