BMW Motorrad Vision AMBY. design

The design of the BMW i Vision AMBY is defined by visual lightness and powerful athleticism.

And every detail promises that it is capable of more than a regular e-bike.

The frame structure is larger and the impression is one of greater strength and stability in every respect.

The modern frame geometry feels like a mixture of racing bike and sporty e-bike.

The upper frame tube, crafted from four sculptural aluminium profiles, represents an expressive and modern statement of intent – and not only in visual terms. A slightly rising sweep to its design underscores the dynamic intent.

The space between the profiles also offers stowage room for a backpack or laptop bag.

Located just before the handlebars is the smartphone integration pad, which holds the device safely in place using magnets and ensures it is highly visible.

The battery is positioned in the centre of the frame.

Its 2,000 Wh enables a range of up to 300 km (186 miles), depending on the riding mode.

Thanks to fast charging technology, it recharges in only three hours.

The drive unit, which is positioned close to the pedals and is also black in colour, only provides assistance when the pedals are being turned.

Power transfer is by low-maintenance toothed belt, and the transmission is integrated into the drive system.

A sophisticated single-sided swinging arm otherwise unique to BMW Motorrad links the rear wheel with the frame.

120 mm of suspension travel front and rear is ideal for all applications in and around town at speeds of up to 60 km/h (37 mph).

The 27.5-inch wheels are fitted with larger and wider tyres than normal in order to ensure exceptional comfort and safety even at higher speeds.
