HOW WE MADE IT
GAIN
eRoad / eAllroad / eUrban
1. TECHS
MODE BUTTON Save space on your handlebar for a GPS if you wish, or ride without clutter. Gain’s control center is an attractive and discreet button on the top tube. With the simple iWoc ONE interface you can power the system on or off, check motor assist level and view the remaining battery charge. Colored LED lighting puts all the information you need right at your fingertips.
C.A.N. INTEGRATION Gain doesn’t require a multitude of wires, ports or accessories. The CAN (Controller Area Network) bus port provides a single interface for charging, system diagnosis or attaching the external backup battery.
INTERNAL BATTERY The battery is one of the most noticeable components of an eBike system, so every step has been taken to find the lightest, smallest and most discreet unit. Gain’s Enough Energy concept provides you enough battery power, not more. It eliminates the need for a bulky, high-output battery that needs to be removed from the bike. RESERVE BATTERY Gain is intended for long rides, but some days demand more. A bit more time on the bike, a few more meters of climbing. Gain’s Enough Energy reserve battery fits in a bottle cage and gives you enough range to get there and back again.
P.A.S. SENSOR Gain’s smooth and balanced assist requires an advanced sensor. Blending perfectly with our effort to create a sleek and discrete system, the cassette lock ring holds 20 magnets that are detected by the integrated dropout sensor. The system monitors your pedaling input and adjusts power accordingly.
DRIVE SYSTEM The heart of Gain, the rear hub motor is the key to Gain’s Enough Power concept. The sophisticated drive system provides enough smooth and reliable assistance at levels designed to enhance your ride, not dominate it. And since the motor is at the hub, you’ll experience drag-free pedaling when Gain is not providing a push.
APP A smartphone and smartwatch compatible app enables deeper control of the iWoc system used by Gain. Ride tracking, activity and GPS route uploading and other functions are available from your mobile device, making Gain an even more valuable tool.
VERSATILITY MULTIPLE BIKES IN ONE Gain is ready for many roles - Gravel, Road or Commuting. Tire clearance, the ability to mount accessories like mud guards combined with a functional All-Road Geometry means that Gain can change. Mount and secure aftermarket fenders in a sleek and simple installation that is sturdy and attractive. Attach a rack for extra carrying capacity. Gain won’t mind, it’s what we intended when we created one of our our most versatile bikes. TIRE CLEARANCE The move to wider tires is happening everywhere, with even road racers opting for the comfort and lower rolling resistance of 25C or 27C tires. To make Gain even more versatile, it is possible to mount most 40C tires.
