Meet Centauri II: our first all-new mid-drive since 2021. It’s a city-centric transportation bike incorporating years of rider feedback from Vvolt owners.

Approachable, low-maintenance and lightweight, it’s dialed for urban riders but versatile enough to reward recreational riders seeking the same ease. 

Automatic shifting, powerful motor, integrated suspension, brilliant lighting, silent belt drive and surprisingly low weight. Centauri II redefines your everyday ebike expectations.

Autoshift3

No shifter required! Centauri II knows when to change gear. The internal rear hub transmission changes gears from 1-3 as you speed up and slow down. It’s entirely mechanical and the hub is designed to run for thousands of miles without service. A sealed internal oil bath provides continuous lubrication and is serviceable by bike shops.

Monoshock System

Smoothing out the ride without adding weight, complexity and maintenance is a tall order. Centauri II ditches the complexity of mountain bike suspension forks for a single friction-damped coil spring arrangement. With 30mm of travel it’s enough to smooth things out and help riders maintain control when hitting unavoidable obstacles (hello potholed streets.) Without complex seals and dampers to maintain, it’ll run for years with nothing but an occasional re-greasing of moving parts under the dust boot.

Go farther, go faster.

The Centauri is equipped with a new highly-capable, powerful mid-drive motor that offers the right amount of pep when you need it. Combined with the long range battery, it is the perfect recipe for a do-it-all city commuter.

Ananda Mid-Drive

Powerful, silent, and reliable, the Centauri II's motor is ready to go at a moment's notice, delivering up to 120Nm of torque and 650W peak power.

Removable Long-range battery

The removable 490Wh battery delivers up to 60 miles of real-world range on pedal assist and is UL2849 compliant for peace of mind.

Easy to love, however you ride.

From frame to belt, battery to motor, we select high-quality components to keep the overall weight down, making an ebike that rides like a regular bike.

Gates CDX Belt Drive

Virtually zero maintenance involved and it lasts 4x longer than traditional chains. It's not a Vvolt if it is not belt driven.

Shimano Brake System

180mm rotors boost stopping power while hydraulic mineral oil delivers extended service life.

Smooth & Durable tires

2.4" size rolls fast, smooths out bumps, and dampens vibration to keep your rides comfortable.

Three sizes, for all.

Three easy-to-fit sizes to accommodate most riders. The mid-step design offers precise handling while lowering stepover height; each size serves riders of many heights and shapes.
