ELYSIUM RELAY 500W
Amazing Value Dual Power System
If you are looking for more power than the average electric bike but worried about the legalities of such choice, the Relay 500W is one of the rare choices to consider. Our unique dual power system integrated in this e-bike allows the user to choose between two modes depending on whether you are on-road or off-road, allowing you to make use of higher power where it is safe and legal to do so.
The UK/EU regulations dictate that an e-bike must not exceed the rated power of 250W to be road-legal. This is not great news for the thrill-seekers, power-hungry among us who want to have the occasional fun off-road yet still be able to ride sensibly and legally on-road. The purchase of the common high powered electric bike will come with its legal implications. On the other hand, the practicality of a road-legal e-bike means giving up the extra power/speed one could enjoy off-road. So which do you choose?
CycloTricity had set out to resolve this dilemma and introduced the first electric bike range that can be modified for the intended use!
The bike will come preset to the road-legal mode of 250W by default. The dual-mode system is embedded in the LCD Dashboard which can be modified using special codes (this can be obtained upon signing the de-restriction terms of use).
Please note that this is not the same as a de-restriction switch which has been questionable from a legal standpoint.
The Relay 500W is made for you who primarily intend on using the bike on-road, but may be interested in modifying it to gain extra power for off-road riding.
