Introducing new to New Zealand
The humans behind Wattwheels are natural born challengers, always questioning the status quo. You can do this too by always asking yourself, with one tiny but powerful word; “why?”.
Expect to be the first to meet new concepts and breakthrough ebikes that substantively change New Zealand for the better.
Commuter City eBikes
New Zealanders are integrating the electric bike more and more into their daily commute. With the rapidly increasing export of e-bikes into the country, predictions suggest they could overtake new passenger car sales within the next few years.
Take the fun way from A to B and reap the physical & mental health benefits on the go without arriving to work or meetings, a sweaty mess. And in the process, switching to a predominantly ebike lifestyle can reduce one's carbon footprint by up to 85%.
With the current and planned expansions of our vast cycleway networks interweaving our main center's we see the commuter market growing at a rapid rate over the next few years.
Features
A hub version of our ever popular Bighorn mid-drive bike.
The S model is our top tube frame. Also available is the LS (Low step option)
With city commutes getting ever so popular thanks to the vast cycle networks being introduced around our main centres we've added a hub model back into our fleet.
Great for those companies looking to introduce a fleet e-bike or those looking at starting the government e-bike schemes into their workplace
An entry level e-bike which ticks all the boxes and is perfect for the commuter at an affordable price. Comes with essential hydraulic brakes which we think should be on all electric bikes. These area also fitted with a brake light feature which when braking activate the rear lights which we think is cool. Also included are a Shimano 8-speed drivetrain, Suntour XCM fork, throttle assist and fully integrated battery are some of the main features. We also include some great extras at no additional cost with the bike which includes a carrier, front and rear lights, mudguards and large gel seat to give you a comfortable ride.
