The frames for our e-bikes with the Pinion E-Drive system have a frame-integrated battery, sliding dropouts with replaceable threaded nuts and a mount specially designed for the motor-gearbox unit. They come from European production and are made from tried and tested AL6061 aluminum. This is an alloy that is very frequently used in electronic products and household appliances, for example, as well as aerospace components. It is characterized by very good corrosion resistance and optimum mechanical properties. It is also very easy to machine and weld. Before the individual frame parts are welded together, the hydroforming process is also used in the manufacturing process. In this process, aluminum tubes are placed in hollow molds and a hot oil-water mixture is pressed in at high pressure. This shapes the tubes into forms that give our E-Bikes a modern aesthetic and an individual touch.

The unisex frame offers high stability, better power transmission and is particularly suitable for sporty rides. However, it makes getting on and off the bike more difficult, which can be impractical for some users.
The mixte frame, on the other hand, allows a comfortable, low entry and is ideal for everyday use and for people with limited mobility. However, it is slightly less torsion-resistant and less efficient for sporty riding.
Conclusion: The choice depends on the individual area of use - for everyday comfort, the Mixte frame is advantageous, for sporty performance, the diamond frame is convincing.
