Description

The Urtopia Carbon Classic is a carbon-frame commuter e-bike with a removable 36 V, 9.8 Ah Samsung battery of 352.8 Wh and a 350 W rear hub motor rated at 45 Nm of torque (500 W peak in the spec table).

The maker labels it Class 2 by default and Class 3 once unlocked: a throttle runs to 20 mph and pedal assist to 20 mph, or 25 mph unlocked. It has Tektro hydraulic disc brakes with motor cut-off, a rigid carbon fork and Kenda 700 x 40 mm tires that take up to 45 mm.

The maker lists 41 lb for the bike and 38 lb with the battery but without accessories, and a 240 lb total payload. It has a 3.5 in colour LCD with USB-C, a front light and a fender-mounted tail light that brightens when braking, and it is rated IP65.

The maker claims up to 72 miles of range in Eco mode with a 180 lb rider. Fenders, a kickstand and a rear rack come in the box. It comes in S, M and L frames in four colours at one price.

The Carbon Classic Step-Thru is the same bike on a one-size low frame at the same $1,999.00, with the same battery, motor, brakes, tires and 41 lb weight and a 680 mm handlebar.
