The upsurge in demand and use of electric bikes coincided with the onset of the coronavirus pandemic. The upswing has, however, continued with a greater focus on urban mobility in a compact and less intrusive manner. The Vello Titanium is the latest e-bike offering from the Austrian company and it is touted as the lightest e-bike yet. It also comes with an unlimited theoretical range.

The Vello Bike+ Titanium was showcased during the 2022 London Cycle Show and sports a simple design that masks its potential. It weighs just 9.9kg, while the non-electric version comes at a super-lightweight of 6.6kg. The e-bike is foldable and its Titanium frame weighs about 2kg.

Vello, formed in 2013, says its e-bikes combine micro mobility with connectivity. The manufacturer aims to revolutionize the bicycle industry by offering its customers an environmentally friendly alternative to fossil-based transportation. Their smart e-bikes and pedal-powered bicycles come with a patented folding frame and a battery-integrated hub motor.

The foldable Bike+ Titanium seems to have tipped the scales in terms of its super-lightweight design. It can be easily folded and carried upstairs without hassles. Vello says you can fold the bike in under 8 seconds, which is also impressive. With this revolutionary bike, strutting into your e-bike after hopping off public transport can be very fast. The bike has a great form factor due to the integrated hub motor. The bike uses the KERS technology to charge the battery when traveling downhill or braking. This implies that you may not need to charge the battery from mains electricity due to its self-charging capacity. A full charge yields a range of 50km on the Bike+ Titanium.

The e-bike can reach a top speed of 25km/h and also navigate through inclines of up to 17%. The slope sensors adjust cadence for optimal performance. An optional Schlumpf Drive gear system with Speed and Mountain Drive settings is also available. The bike has app connectivity support to get information and GPS on the go. It also has an electronic lock, anti-theft technology, and external remote control.

The Vello Titanium e-bike carries a hefty price tag of €4,490 ($4,597) in Europe and comes with several accessories.
