BionX Bike Parts & Accessories
BionX is a Canada-based manufacturer of electric assist systems for bicycles. Currently the company manufactures retrofit kits for existing bikes and provides systems to bike manufacturers for integration. BionX kits are available from bike shops and sporting gear retailers throughout Europe and North America.
The company began exclusively as a maker of retrofit kits, its novel design permitting use with practically any bicycle. With the steady expansion of the e-bike industry and the attention of some of the giants in bicycle manufacture, BionX' effective assist systems attracted interest as fully functional provisioning of an e-bike line for a bike builder new to the business. Today the company provides OEM motors and ancillary equipment to dozens of bike companies, including some of the biggest names in the industry and some of the most expert in e-bikes.
The OEM systems can be found on bikes from the smallest folder to the fattest fat bike, from companies in countries across the northern hemisphere. These systems are designed to order, specific to the bikes with which they'll be incorporated, providing a reliable boost and seamless integration.
The aftermarket kits are offered in a number of versions, with options for range and power, rack- or frame-mount battery, and fitting to a wide variety of bike styles and sizes. Wheels from 20" to 29er are accommodated.
All systems are based around an electric motor, with a bar-mounted controller and a battery that is mounted on the bike. Fittings vary, from bottom bracket direct mount to a drop-in wheel replacement. Each motor is quiet, effective, and sensitive, with sensors honing the performance of the motor, keeping it in line with the rider's needs.
BionX is an established maker of electric assist systems for bicycles, with a list of partners that reads like the bike industry's Who's Who. If you're in the market, BionX is worth a look.
