Advanced Technological Integration
Beyond its portability, the JIM is equipped with a Bafang H700 rear motor featuring an automatic two-speed function and 35 Nm torque. This system adapts to the rider’s cadence and speed, eliminating the need for manual gear changes. The removable USB-C battery not only powers the bike but also serves as a power bank, capable of charging devices on the go. With a range of up to 60 kilometres, the JIM caters to the modern commuter’s needs. (ifdesign.com)
