Bike Description:

Our goal with the Galiano is to offer a higher quality hub motor e-bike that is still reasonably priced.  Commuters appreciate the lower maintenance and simple dependability that come with a hub motor, but most of these bikes use lower end parts.  Assembly of key components like the wheels leave something to be desired. 

For a few hundred dollars more we offer one of the best geared hub motors available, driven by a state of the art field oriented sine wave controller, and bottom bracket torque sensor, completely outfitted for commuting, or just day to day use.

Now featuring a 52V battery, this bike has the potential for the higher speeds of an S-Pedelec when programmed for off road use.

Key features:

• Comfortable and super smooth riding 19" one size fits most (5'5" to 6'0") aluminum diamond frame 
• 500 Watt (1100 W peak) Ezee geared hub motor. Smooth and powerful with hilleating torque.
• State of the art Grin Technologies BaseRunner V6 FOC sine wave motor controller. Smooth, efficient, cool running, quiet.
• Grin CA3 Cycle Analyst display. This display is unique in the ebike industry, it is completely configurable and tuneable, and gives you accurate and useful stats on your ride like Watt hours per killometre.
• Our peak limiting knob gives you quick easy control of the peak power available from the system.  Together with the usual assist modes, this control helps you maximize range for those all day rides.
• 910 watt hour, 17.5 Amp hour 52V battery using Panasonic 3500mah 18650 cells. Real world range 50-1000 km.
  
• Schwalbe 27.5 X 2.35 Super moto X tires. Smooth riding, puncture resistant, e-bike rated tires.
• Torque sensing bottom bracket gives responsive pedal assist.  Most "Torque Sensing" pedal assist e-bikes give you some sense that they are responding to your pedal effort.  The combination of our high quality torque sensor, and the Grin CA3 is on another level, and is completely tunable to suit you perferences.
• Set up for commuting with full fenders, wired lights, heavy duty rear rack and chain guard.
• Top quality Magura MT4N-e hydraulic disc brakes 180mm rotors front and 160mm rear.
• Shimano Deore 10 speed shift system with tension holding clutch.
• Weight 63 lb, 50 lb with battery removed.
• The wheelbase is 1135mm
• Seat Tube 482mm
• Standover is 737mm
•  Top tube 532mm

We use the popular Reention removable downtube battery system, then we add premium Panasonic battery cells. 

The supplied charger is a quality ETL approved 2A unit, and is fully automatic, giving a full charge in about 3-9 hours, depending on the depth of discharge.

The optional Grin Satiator charger is programmed for an 85 or 100% charge, and the option of charging at 5 amps if you are in a hurry.  The 85% charge profile will extend the life of the battery significantly if you do not need the full capacity day to day.

The motor:

We use the Ezee geared hub motor. It's a little larger than other motors typically used on a commuter e-bike, this means it will have great torque and an long life on the Galiano.

Motor features:

• Machined nylon high strength gears instead of the molded ones in most motors.
• Built to handle as much as 1100 watts continuous input power.
• The motor core has been upgraded to use 0.35mm laminations, giving higher peak efficiency and lower no load losses compared to other motors.
• Larger diameter steel axle.
• New! We now use a Higo L1019 45 amp connector on the motor instead of the more common Z910 15amp.

The Pedal Assist System

We use a bottom bracket torque sensor. It measures spindle bend from the force on the cranks and also reads the pedaling cadence at 24 pulses per revolution, twice that of most BB torque sensors. The resulting signal is combined in the operating system, and your pedal effort is amplified in the motor.

This results in a smoother, more intuitive bike biding experience.

We also provide a throttle for those times when you need a little extra boost to get moving from a standstill.

Fully set up, ready to go

  The Galiano comes ready to ride, just rotate and tighten the handlebar, attach the pedals, and install the battery. 

We use name brand accessories like:

• PC Plastics fenders
• High power 7 watt Roxim LED headlight
• Spanninga LED rear light
• 2.4" Schwalbe Pickup premium puncture resistant tires.
• KMC rust resistant chain
• Upgraded Suntour XCM front fork with 100 mm travel, lock out and preload adjustment.
