The Decathlon BTWIN LD 920E electric city bike has made its debut in several European Union countries, offering urban commuters an enticing option for eco-friendly transportation. This e-bike is available in two variants: a stepover model boasting a green frame and a step-through frame adorned in black. Cyclists in the Netherlands, France, Italy, and Spain can now acquire the LD 920E for €2,999.99, while Swedish riders will find it priced at 37,999 kr (approximately €3,199).
Initially identified earlier this year under the moniker Elops LD 920 e-bike, the BTWIN LD 920E comes equipped with a mid-mounted 250W OWURU motor delivering up to 65NM of torque and a peak power output of 600W. Cyclists can adjust the pedaling cadence within the range of 40 to 90 rpm and select from four different assistance modes. The e-bike boasts an impressive 802Wh lithium-ion battery, offering riders the ability to cover distances of up to 150 km (approximately 93 miles) with electric assistance.
Enhancing the riding experience, a color screen integrated into the stem provides valuable information such as speed and remaining range. Furthermore, the e-bike features a USB-C charging port, allowing users to charge their mobile devices while on the go. The touchscreen interface can be conveniently operated using a joystick mounted on the handlebar. Additionally, riders can connect their smartphones to the e-bike via Bluetooth, accessing supplementary data, including the GPS location of the bicycle, through a dedicated app.
The LD 920E comes complete with B’TWIN by TEKTRO AIR280 hydraulic disc brakes, Vittoria E-Randonneur Tech tires, and a “HEADSHOCK” type suspension fork, ensuring a smooth and secure ride. However, it remains uncertain when or if this new model will become available in markets such as the United States or the United Kingdom.
