A carbon belt drive is a drive system for bicycles that uses a belt made of carbon fibers instead of a conventional metal chain. This belt is extremely robust and durable. Here are some of the main advantages and highlights compared to a normal chain:  

• Low maintenance: In contrast to metal chains, which have to be lubricated and cleaned regularly, a carbon belt drive requires hardly any maintenance.
• Durable: Carbon belts have a longer service life than conventional chains as they are less susceptible to wear and stretching.
• Quiet: The carbon belt runs almost silently, which makes the riding experience more pleasant.
• Clean: As no lubricant is required, the belt remains clean and leaves no oily residue.
• Efficient: The belt offers even power transmission and ensures a smooth ride.

These properties make the carbon belt drive an ideal choice for e-bikes and other bikes that are used frequently and in a variety of conditions.

• The City E-Bike Classic uses automatic adjustment of the pedal assistance depending on the gradient and riding conditions. This means that no conventional gears are visible or need to be shifted manually. Instead, the system automatically adjusts the power assistance to ensure an optimal riding experience. This simplifies operation considerably and ensures that you can concentrate fully on riding.

• Yes, the City E-Bike Classic can also be ridden without a battery. In this case, it works like a normal bike, but without electric pedal assistance. As the bike has no conventional gears and the power assistance is adjusted automatically, there is no manual gear shifting. Without a battery, you have to rely on your own muscle power and the gear ratio remains fixed. This means that riding on hilly terrain or into a headwind can be more strenuous as there is no electric assistance available. These characteristics make the carbon belt drive an ideal choice for e-bikes and other bikes that are used frequently and in different conditions.
